In a statement, the Israeli army said it would continue military operations in the area, adding that the objective is to eliminate what it described as threats to Israeli civilians and its forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Syria’s state-run al-Ikhbariya news channel reported that an Israeli military force consisting of six military vehicles advanced early Sunday into the Wadi al-Raqqad area, reaching the village of Jamla in the Yarmouk Basin of western Daraa Governorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the broadcaster, the force entered through the Tel Abu al-Ghithar gate before establishing positions at the former Jamla Company military site, also known as the Valley Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report added that the incursion coincided with the deployment of another Israeli force to Tel al-Maghar, where troops took up positions on the hilltop, operated laser illumination equipment, and deployed snipers throughout the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
