The Political Bureau of Yemen's Ansar Allah movement affirmed its support for Syria in confronting Israeli aggression, warning Arab and Islamic regimes against ignoring the "serious Israeli escalation."  

In a statement, Ansar Allah’s Political Bureau stated that "the Israeli escalation may not be confined to specific boundaries but could spill over to other countries in the region, given the continued US and Western support."  

The statement expressed deep concern over "the treacherous Israeli aggression on Syria, the occupation of new areas and villages in al-Quneitra and Mount Hermon, and the intensification of airstrikes on Damascus."

It warned that "the Israeli aggression aims to impose a new reality in Syria, exploiting the circumstances the country is going through."  

After buffer zone, 'Israel' occupies Syrian Mount Hermon

Israeli media reported on Sunday that the Israeli military occupied Syria’s Mount Hermon with Israeli occupation forces advancing several kilometers into the Syrian Golan.

The media said Israeli forces took control of the highest point in the Hermon Mountain inside Syrian territory, pointing out that this point lies within the buffer zone and is under the responsibility of the United Nations.

A UN base that oversees the Golan Heights within Syrian territory sits on the summit, according to the report.

Israeli media indicated that the Israeli military is intensifying its strikes on Syria, targeting weapons depots and air defense systems; anything that could pose a "future threat" to "Israel".

According to Israeli media, the Israeli occupation army announced bombing about 100 "targets" inside Syria in the past hours.

They added that the wave of Israeli attacks on Syria is being carried out on an unprecedented scale, exploiting the current governmental "chaos" in the country.

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed the Israeli occupation military to occupy the buffer zone on the border with Syria.

Speaking from a site near the Syrian border, Netanyahu declared the collapse of the 1974 "disengagement agreement" with Syria, after "Syrian forces have abandoned their positions."

The buffer zone, created in 1974, separates Israeli-occupied areas from liberated Syrian territories and has been monitored by UN peacekeepers since its establishment.

The Israeli occupation military also issued a warning calling on residents of five towns in southern Syria to remain in their homes, as it plans to take action. These towns are Ofania, al-Quneitra, al-Hamidiyah, Western al-Samadaniyah, and al-Qahtaniyah. 

Israeli media reported that the Israeli occupation military had declared the occupied Golan Heights a "closed military zone" and that "Israel" is preparing to launch continuous attacks on Syria in the coming days.

In related developments, multiple reports have surfaced of Israeli airstrikes targeting a strategic airbase in Syria and residential areas in Damascus in recent hours.

Shortly after, Israeli aircraft targeted the security zone that includes intelligence and customs buildings in the Kfar Sousa area in central Damascus, causing massive fires.

Reuters cited security sources who said "aircraft believed to be Israeli" struck the Khalkhala airbase in southern Syria. In addition, the agency reported that "suspected Israeli strikes" targeted the Mazzeh neighborhood in Damascus, with media sources confirming two large explosions in the area.

In this context, Israeli media reported that the Israeli army is attacking anything that could pose a threat to "Israel" in Syria.
