Netanyahu visits Mount Hermon amid poll slump

An Israeli newspaper reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu invaded the Golan Heights area in the occupied Syrian territories on Wednesday, accompanied by Defense Minister Yisrael Katz. This was part of his election campaign ahead of the Knesset elections scheduled for October 2026. A video recording shows him wearing a bulletproof vest, and from the top of the mountain, he stated that Israel controls the area extending from Mount Hermon to the Mediterranean Sea, describing it as "an unprecedented absolute control." He emphasized that Israel will not allow a terrorist army to establish itself near its borders. The visit comes at a time when Israel is expanding its control over Syrian territory, especially after occupying the Golan Heights in 1967 and annexing it in 1981. It coincides with increasing military and security tensions in the region as elections approach. These statements reflect Israel's desire to assert its dominance over the area amid declining public support in opinion polls ahead of the elections.
