In a dramatic turn of events, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have deployed troops to the Golan Heights amid escalating violence in Syria.
As jihadist groups, including Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), continue their rapid advance, capturing key cities like Damascus, the IDF's urgent statement highlights its efforts to protect Israeli territory and the Golan Heights buffer zone.
While the IDF insists its actions are aimed solely at defending Israel and not intervening in Syria's internal affairs, the situation remains tense.
Watch as we dive into the full details of this unfolding crisis and its implications for Israel, Syria, and the region.

Hamas has condemned Israel’s interception of the Gaza-bound aid ship Madleen, calling it an act of “piracy” and “state terrorism” in international waters. The Israeli Navy raided the vessel, which carried symbolic aid and international activists, including Greta Thunberg. Hamas accuses Israel of violating international law and deliberately targeting humanitarian missions. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition claims activists were “kidnapped,” while Israel defends the operation as legal enforcement of its Gaza blockade. Global calls mount for accountability and humanitarian access.

Israeli forces intercepted the Gaza-bound humanitarian ship Madleen, operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), detaining activists including Greta Thunberg and MEP Rima Hassan. The IDF says the vessel, carrying limited aid, was a “publicity stunt” aimed at breaching Israel’s blockade. The FFC alleges the interception in international waters constitutes “kidnapping.” Defense Minister Katz labeled the activists “Hamas propagandists,” vowing to block such missions. A viral image shows activists with raised hands before losing contact with the vessel.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz has ordered the IDF to block the Gaza-bound “Madeleine” flotilla, calling it a “Hamas propaganda stunt.” Greta Thunberg and other activists were warned to “turn back” or face military intervention. Katz labeled the mission “anti-Semitic” and promised Israel would act by sea, air, and land. French activists on board have appealed to President Macron for safe passage. Tensions rise as international attention focuses on the controversial voyage, with Israel determined to prevent a breach of the Gaza blockade.

In a stunning reversal of longstanding U.S. foreign policy, former President Donald Trump has lifted key sanctions on Syria, ending years of crippling economic isolation. The move comes as part of Trump’s promised Middle East shift, following the fall of Bashar al-Assad and the rise of a new interim government in Damascus led by Ahmed al-Sharaa — a former rebel commander.
The U.S. Treasury and State Department jointly announced a sweeping waiver of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act, unlocking billions in potential investment and opening Syria’s oil, electricity, and financial sectors to international engagement. Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared the relief vital to restoring basic services like water, energy, and sanitation.

During his visit to Saudi Arabia, President Trump met with Syria’s new leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, marking the first such meeting in 25 years. Trump urged Syria to join the Abraham Accords with Israel, expel foreign militants, and take control of ISIS camps run by Kurdish forces. In return, Trump announced the lifting of crippling U.S. sanctions, offering Syria a chance at economic recovery. The Syrian foreign ministry hailed the meeting as "historic," though the normalization with Israel was not addressed. Crowds in Damascus celebrated the U.S. decision, though the future remains uncertain.
