The Israeli military has carried out "operational raids" on Mount Hermon in Syria, escalating a military campaign amidst international criticism.
Reported airstrikes around Damascus were attributed to the Israeli military, targeting a regime ammunitions warehouse.
Israel claims these operations are necessary for the "defense of Israel’s citizens," despite mounting accusations from the U.N. of violating a long-standing cease-fire.
The actions follow a meeting between Israeli officials and the U.N. peacekeeping mission on the border after the ousting of President Bashar al-Assad.
Israel's military incursions are seen as a breach of the 1974 cease-fire agreement, drawing sharp rebukes from U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres.
