Israeli incursions into southern Syria have become a nearly daily occurence in recent months, often involving raids on homes, the establishment of checkpoints and the detention of civilians, including children.
After the fall of former Syrian President Bashar al Assad’s regime on December 8 2024, Israel declared the collapse of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement and moved to occupy the buffer zone along the frontier.
Despite the new Syrian administration not issuing threats towards Israel, Israeli forces have carried out air strikes in Syria since Assad’s ouster, killing civilians and targeting military sites, equipment and ammunition.
