RAID BY ISRAEL IN SOUTHERN SYRIA

WHAT HAPPENED?
The Israeli army had occupied the Golan Heights, which it has held since 1967, and occupied the adjacent buffer zone on December 8, 2024.
Israeli forces had advanced the occupation beyond the buffer zone, reaching within 20 kilometers of the capital, Damascus.
The borders of the buffer zone and the demilitarized zone in the Golan Heights were defined by the Disengagement Agreement signed between the two countries in 1974.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conveyed the message that the occupation in southern Syria would be permanent and demanded the disarmament of the southern region in violation of Syria's sovereignty.
On July 13, Israel intervened in the clashes that erupted in Sweida, southern Syria, and carried out attacks near the Syrian army and the presidential complex in Damascus.
