\r\n\tThe Israeli Army, through its 210th Bashan Division, is operating in southern Syria to protect Israeli citizens, especially those living in the Golan Heights<\/strong><\/p>

The division’s mission is to identify and neutralize any threats in the region.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nOn Sunday, the Army announced that it had arrested several terrorist suspects during raids on weapons depots in southern Syria.<\/p>

\r\nThe Bashan Division’s area of “”operation stretches from the top of Mount Hermon, known as the “crown” of the region, to the point where the borders of Syria, Jordan and Israel meet.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nAfter the fall of Bashar Assad’s government in December due to an uprising led by Sunni jihadist groups, Israel took control of parts of the Syrian side of the Golan Heights.<\/p>

\r\nThis move was taken to create a buffer zone and protect Israeli territory from hostile groups that could take advantage of the power vacuum in Syria.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nIn January, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz visited Syria’s Mount Hermon and said the army would remain in the area indefinitely to ensure the security of communities in the Golan Heights and northern Israel, as well as all Israeli citizens.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he will not allow forces loyal to Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, a former al-Qaeda operative, to establish themselves in the area south of Damascus.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nDorothy Shea, the United States representative to the United Nations, suggested this month that the al-Sharaa government begin negotiations with Israel on a non-aggression agreement and to resolve border disputes.<\/p>

\r\nShe also recommended that al-Sharaa take steps to ban and expel Palestinian terrorist groups from Syria, and cooperate on issues related to chemical and nuclear weapons.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nEarlier this month, Syrian terrorists launched two rockets toward the Israeli side of the Golan Heights.<\/p>

\r\nThe projectiles landed in open areas, causing no injuries or damage, according to Israeli authorities.<\/p>

\r\nThe attack, which triggered warning sirens in the communities of Hispin and Ramat Magshimim, was the first rocket fire from Syrian territory since May 2024. Minister Katz held the al-Sharaa government directly responsible for the attack, saying that Israel holds the Syrian leader responsible for any threat or attack against the country and promised a full response soon.
