Southern Syria faces arrests and farm bans amid Israeli offensive

A report in Haaretz highlights the Israeli military deployment in southern Syria, particularly in Quneitra and Daraa countryside. Israeli forces have established a presence across approximately 600 square kilometers, encompassing dozens of villages and towns, including nine military outposts. According to the Israeli military, this deployment aims to protect the borders and prevent armed groups from establishing positions close to the Golan Heights. However, residents say the military presence extends beyond these outposts, involving nightly raids, house and vehicle searches, and the imposition of checkpoints and restrictive inspection procedures. Since the end of 2024, these measures have resulted in the demolition of 17 homes and the detention of 248 individuals, with some detainees transferred to Israel. The deployment has also impacted agricultural activity, making it difficult for farmers to access their lands and threatening their livelihoods. Israel maintains that its operations are based on security assessments and are intended to protect civilians, and that some of those detained have been returned to Syria after investigation.
