The IOF has continued to expand its military presence in southern Syria, raiding villages, kidnapping civilians and building military infrastructure while the HTS regime continues US-brokered "security negotiations" with Israel.
￭ On November 14, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported nearly 70 Israeli military incursions and movements throughout al-Quneitra, Daraa and the Jabal al-Sheikh (Mount Hermon) region since the beginning of November.
￭ Israel also continued excavating and building roads along the so-called Sufa 53 line, establishing its military presence beyond the territory captured after the fall of Damascus in December 2024.
