In fact, the flights came a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conducted a field tour in the Syrian buffer zone controlled by Israel since late last year, accompanied by senior authorities including the defense and foreign ministers.
Indeed, the Syrian administration condemned the visit, describing it as “a grave violation of Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. ” damascus stressed that the presence of Israeli authorities in southern buffer areas constitutes a breach of international law and an escalation of tensions. Local media outlets and social media platforms circulated videos and images claiming to show Israeli aircraft over southern Syria and above the central city of Homs.
The circumstances remains tense as Syrian authorities monitor further Israeli armed forces activity, with no immediate indication of de-escalation. By Atoun Jan
