Israeli warplanes launched a massive assault on Syria, conducting over 100 airstrikes in a single day, targeting key military and intelligence sites in Damascus, Homs, and Daraa. This aerial offensive follows the collapse of Bashar al-Assadâs regime and comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the 1974 Disengagement Agreement with Syria null and void, signaling Israelâs intent to occupy the strategic buffer zone near the Golan Heights.
Israeli forces took control of the Mazzeh base on Mount Hermon, while advancing into several towns, including Quneitra and Khan Arnabeh. Israeli military officials issued warnings for residents in areas near the Golan to stay indoors as operations continued.

Israeli forces have reportedly taken control of Mount Hermonâs peak, establishing a new military position overlooking Damascus' southwestern countryside. According to local sources cited by Al Mayadeen, the IDF has been combing the entire peak, seizing military equipment and the wreckage of an Israeli helicopter downed during the 1973 October War. Simultaneously, Israeli tanks and armored patrols have advanced into Syriaâs Quneitra countryside, infiltrating the al-Hamidiyah axis toward al-Baath. Reports indicate that Israeli forces have targeted homes and farms in central Quneitra villages while indiscriminately firing on the al-Hamidiyah and al-Hurriya forests.

The year 2024 was marked by several pivotal global events. Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency shocked the political landscape, following a fiercely contested election where Kamala Harris, despite Biden's endorsement, failed to secure a victory. In Syria, years of civil war culminated in the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, as rebel forces led by Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham, supported by Turkish-backed groups, successfully overthrew his regime. Meanwhile, the world was shaken by multiple deadly plane crashes, including the tragic crashes in Kazakhstan and Jeju Air, which claimed over 200 lives. These events, alongside ongoing conflicts like the Israel-Hamas war and Modi's re-election in India, have defined a tumultuous year that has left lasting impacts on geopolitics and human lives.

A deadly ambush near Syria's Mediterranean port of Tartous resulted in 14 interior ministry personnel killed and 10 injured. The attack was attributed to loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. It occurred during an operation to apprehend a former officer linked to the notorious Saydnaya prison. Three loyalists also lost their lives in the clash. This comes weeks after rebel forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) ousted Assad, ending decades of family rule. HTS promised to protect minorities but faces global designation as a terrorist group. Tensions continue to rise across the country.

Avivi also acknowledged Israelâs strategic victories over Hezbollah and Syriaâs weakened stance as contributing factors. The agreement, brokered with Trumpâs team, is set to take effect just before his inauguration.

Israelâs announcement of quitting the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has sparked controversy, as the country was never a member to begin with. Foreign Minister Gideon Saar accused the UNHRC of discrimination, but critics argue that Israelâs âwithdrawalâ is symbolic rather than official. The UNHRC has repeatedly condemned Israel, but without membership, can Israel truly âleaveâ the council? This contradiction raises questions about diplomatic strategy and international narratives. The confusion follows the U.S. departure from the UNHRC, amplifying scrutiny on the councilâs treatment of Israel.
