Breaking: IDF Seizes Key Syrian Towns, Moves Toward Dara’a as Netanyahu Orders Buffer Zone Control

In a significant military escalation, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have captured key towns in Syria’s Quneitra province, near the Golan Heights, following the collapse of President Bashar al-Assad's government.

The towns of Madinat al-Baath and Hader fell to Israeli troops after intense artillery shelling in the buffer zone.

Reports indicate that Israeli forces, bolstered by their recent gains, are advancing towards Dara’a province, located approximately 90 kilometers south of Damascus.

The move comes after the IDF took over a strategic Syrian army outpost at Mount Hermon in the Golan Heights, encountering no resistance.

BREAKING | Hamas Suspends Release of Israeli Hostages, Accuses Israel of Multiple Truce Violations

Hamas has announced an indefinite suspension of Israeli hostage releases, citing multiple ceasefire violations by Israel. The militant group accused Israel of delaying the return of displaced Palestinians to northern Gaza, targeting civilians with shelling, and blocking humanitarian aid. The latest hostage exchange, scheduled for Saturday, has now been halted. In response, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz condemned Hamas’s decision as a “complete violation” of the truce and ordered the IDF to prepare for potential military action. The ceasefire agreement, which has facilitated previous hostage swaps, now faces growing uncertainty. #Hamas #Israel #HostageCrisis #HamasIsraelBreaking #CeasefireViolation #BreakingNews #MiddleEastTensions #GazaConflict #IsraelDefenseForces #TruceCollapse #HostageRelease #IsraelHamasWar #MilitaryAlert #PeaceTalks #HumanitarianCrisis #WarUpdates ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.336~

Israeli forces have reportedly taken control of Mount Hermon’s 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 Syria’s Quneitra countryside, infiltrating the al-Hamidiyah axis toward al-Baath.

Tensions are escalating as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intensifies his stance on the Golan Heights, provoking Syrian militant leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani. Israel's Defense Forces (IDF) have refused to pull back from the strategically critical "buffer zone" inside the Syrian Golan Heights, despite growing international pressure.
