#golanheights

1 post1 participant0 posts today

📢 Syrian citizens in and near the demilitarised zone in the #golanheights have complained of Israeli encroachment on their land as well as checkpoints, housing raids, and road closures. Israel’s military claims it is acting to eliminate threats against its citizens.

ISR forces initially declared that the incursions would be temporary, but the building of bases brings that claim into question.

Al Jazeera · Satellite images show Israel building military bases in Syria buffer zoneBy Al Jazeera Staff

As #Damascus celebrated the fall of Bashar al-Assad, Syrians living in the Quneitra governorate in the Golan Heights looked on as Israeli troops suddenly drove into their villages. The near-daily Israeli raids are scaring the population, who say they now live in constant fear that Israel’s “temporary” occupation of the 50-year-old demilitarised zone will one day become permanent.

Meanwhile #Israel is chopping more Syrian land. Now they control all water resources in the #GolanHeights. Water resources are a major national security issue, but the flirtatious poems in the curriculum are more problematic for the #HTS. I think they'll get along well with #Trump and his conservative nutjobs.

Syria's conflict "has not ended" even after the departure of former President Bashar Assad, the U.N.'s envoy to the country has warned, highlighting clashes between Turkish-backed and Kurdish groups in the north. japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/12/ #worldnews #syria #un #turkey #israel #golanheights

The Japan Times · Conflict in Syria 'has not ended,' U.N. warnsBy Gregory Walton

The situation in the Golan region.


Israeli forces are 28km from the major city of Daraa and just 17km from the capital, #Damascus.

Israeli forces have captured (occupied/invaded) 386.5 sqkm of area in southern Syria since the fall of Assad.

I don't hear anytone in "civilized world" condemning Israeli "Special Military Operation" in Syria. And none of the "nationalist" Syrian forces standing up or protesting ethnic cleansing and land grab by Israel.
