Shafaq News- Daraa
Israeli forces advanced into two
villages in the Yarmouk Basin, western Daraa province near the boundary with
the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights early Sunday, Syria’s Al-Ekhbariya channel
reported.
The state-run outlet stated that a
force comprising three military vehicles and a bulldozer moved toward Maariya
and Al-Aridah, opened a road into the area, and established a checkpoint inside
Al-Aridah.

The Israeli army has yet to comment
on the incident.
Between July 17 and 24, the Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) documented 17 Israeli ground incursions
along the border and the 1974 disengagement zone in southern Syria, as well as
six aerial incursions involving fighter jets, helicopters, and reconnaissance
aircraft. The monitor also reported two drone strikes and three incidents of
machine-gun fire and artillery shelling that wounded a child and a teenager and
led to the detention of two young men.
On Saturday, UN Secretary-General
Antonio Guterres called for an end to Israeli violations of Syria’s
“sovereignty and territorial integrity,” reaffirming that the occupied Golan
Heights, captured by Israel in 1967 and effectively annexed in 1981, remain
Syrian territory.
