QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) – An Israeli force comprising three vehicles set up a checkpoint for passersby on Sunday in Umm al-Adham village in Quneitra countryside, southern Syria.

Earlier Sunday, two Israeli military forces entered the Yarmouk Basin area in western Daraa countryside, southern Syria, within a few hours of each other.

North Press sources said an Israeli patrol set up a temporary military checkpoint in Umm al-Adham, searched passersby and checked their identification documents before withdrawing from the village.

The sources said the patrol did not arrest any residents during the incursion, while the field reasons behind the operation remained unclear.
