Reactions to Israeli Defense Minister's Mount Hermon Visit
Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz conducted a field tour in southern Syria, affirming that Israeli forces will remain on Mount Hermon and in the security zone there as long as threats persist. He emphasized that their presence aims to defend the towns and Syrian borders. This visit comes after an America-sponsored meeting between the Syrian and Israeli delegations aimed at de-escalation and supporting stability, but it raised questions about the effectiveness of the negotiations and Israel's continued positioning within Syrian territory, especially after Katz confirmed that their deployment is based on security assessments rather than the results of dialogue with Damascus. It is believed that the presence of Israeli forces in the area does not reflect a specific withdrawal plan but is linked to evolving security developments, particularly following the recent attack on Abu al-Zuhur base. Experts assert that these statements indicate ongoing conflict and reinforce the idea that any attempt to reclaim occupied territories will face resistance from the Syrian people, who will continue their struggle against occupation through sacrifices spanning over 14 years.
