Israeli military raids in southern Syria, including outposts from Assad’s regime

The IDF has conducted several raids in southern Syria in recent months since the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime.

Last week, the military raided several command outposts on the slopes of the Mount Hermon Summit that belonged to Assad’s regime.

More than 300 weapons were located and confiscated by Israeli troops.

Those in the area suspected of being involved in the smuggling and trade of weapons from Syria to its neighboring country, Lebanon, were detained and questioned by the IDF.
