On Tuesday, it was reported that Israeli infantry was
advancing in some neighborhoods of the city of Hader in Quneitra province,
southwestern Syria.
The Israeli news television channel i24 NEWS stated that
Israeli ground forces destroyed Syrian army military sites and assets in
southern Syria.
The Israeli news outlet indicated that the activity was
approved by the necessary levels and carried out with the assistance of armored
battalions deployed in the region and infantry fighters.
According to the Israeli military correspondent Yinon Shalom
Yitah, the operation targeted military infrastructure belonging to the Syrian
army.
Since the fall of the Syrian president, the Israeli army
continues to seize territory, after occupying Jabal Sheikh (Mount Hermon) and
the buffer zone in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights.
The occupation forces are now only 15 kilometers away from
the international highway between Damascus and Beirut.
They have also seized the most significant freshwater
sources in southern Syria, located along the Yarmouk River.
For decades, a large portion of Syrian households and
businesses have relied on these basins along the Yarmouk River for sanitized
water supplies.
The Israeli occupation continues its attacks on military
positions to neutralize Syria’s combat capability.
The Israeli army claimed that its attacks over the past few
days have “severely damaged Syria’s air defense system,” destroying “more than
90% of strategic surface-to-air missiles.”
Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces continue a ground
invasion into southern Syria, expanding its control over new Syrian villages
along the border with Lebanon.
Israeli occupation forces have brought in engineering
equipment towards the slopes of Jabal Sheikh (Mount Hermon) in a bid to dig
trenches and prevent any potential connection with Lebanese territories.
