Katz Threatens Damascus and Ankara from Mount Hermon
The statements from the Israeli Ministry of Security, expressed by Defense Minister Yisrael Katz, indicate that the occupation forces will remain in Mount Hermon in Syria and within the security zone inside Syria, linked to ongoing jihadist threats. Katz emphasized that Israel will not withdraw from the area until these threats are eliminated, clarifying that Israeli forces are deployed across Mount Hermon and the central Golan Heights region, which fall under Damascus's control. They monitor nearby areas close to Damascus and Lebanon from their positions, maintaining a distance of about 35 kilometers. He explained that Israel takes daily measures to thwart Syrian regime plans and jihadist organizations, accusing Damascus and its militias of having jihadist forces within Syrian governmental institutions aiming to threaten Israel. Katz also criticized Turkey's attempts to establish a foothold in the region, asserting that Israel will take actions to prevent this. These remarks come after Israeli incursions into southern Syria and a meeting with Syrian and American delegations in Jordan to discuss tensions and measures for de-escalation. They conveyed clear messages that Israel is committed to retaining the sites it occupied in Syria, with statements linked to ongoing military operations and the maintenance of its military presence in the security zone. The persistence of threats remains the main justification for the Israeli military's continued presence there.
