Israeli occupation forces conducted an incursion into the village of al-Qahtaniyah in Syria’s Quneitra countryside on Wednesday, according to Syria TV.

The operation adds to rising instability across western Syria, where multiple armed confrontations have erupted in recent days.

During the raid, Israeli troops reportedly spread out between homes and along village streets, firing warning shots into the air. Using loudspeakers, they ordered residents to stay indoors and avoid movement, the outlet said.

In Talkalakh, western Homs, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported a return to relative calm after a violent night of armed clashes. Local armed groups led by Abu Alamin al-Hazouri, Hussein al-Nuaimi, and Jassem al-Masri attacked Syrian security forces, leaving four General Security personnel dead or wounded.

The assault reportedly stemmed from a dispute involving attempts by local militias to smuggle former regime officers into Lebanon in exchange for money. The operation was intercepted by security forces, sparking the deadly confrontation.
