These actions have included numerous airstrikes, ground incursions, and the establishment of military positions in strategic areas, particularly in southern Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Airstrikes and Raids<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israeli forces have conducted hundreds of airstrikes across Syria, averaging one every three to four days. These operations have targeted military infrastructure, including airports, air defense systems, and facilities associated with Iranian-backed groups. Notable incidents include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Masyaf Raid (8 September 2024): Israeli special forces raided an underground missile production facility near Masyaf, resulting in at least 18 deaths, including six civilians.<br><br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Palmyra Airstrike (20 November 2024): An Israeli airstrike on residential and industrial areas in Palmyra killed over 100 individuals, including members of Iranian-backed militias and Hezbollah.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>Ground Incursions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Israeli ground operations have also escalated, with forces entering Syrian territory to establish military positions and conduct raids. In March 2025, Israeli troops occupied a 400 square kilometer demilitarized buffer zone in southern Syria, a move that has been widely criticized as a violation of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, in August 2025, Israel deployed 60 soldiers to Mount Hermon, a strategic location on the Syrian-Lebanese border, further asserting control over the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>International Reactions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Syria has condemned these Israeli actions as violations of its sovereignty and breaches of international law. The Syrian Foreign Ministry has called on the international community to hold Israel accountable for its military activities in Syria. Regional actors, including Gulf states, have also expressed concern over Israel\u2019s increasing presence in the Golan Heights and its expansion into the demilitarized zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The United Nations has acknowledged the escalation, with reports indicating that Israeli airstrikes have reached an all-time high since the fall of the Assad regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The period following the fall of President Bashar al-Assad has seen a marked increase in Israeli military operations within Syria. These actions have raised significant concerns regarding Syrian sovereignty and regional stability. The international community continues to monitor the situation closely, with ongoing debates about the legality and implications of Israel\u2019s military presence in Syria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Atoun Jan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAMASCUS, Syria (North Press) \u2013 Since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad\u2019s regime in December 2024, Israel has significantly increased its military operations within Syrian territory.
