Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the Golan Heights would remain "forever an inseparable part" of Israel, cementing the controversial annexation of the strategic region. This bold proclamation came as Israeli troops moved decisively to seize control of the Golan buffer zone, breaching the 1974 disengagement agreement.
Netanyahu justified the advance, stating that the agreement had âcollapsedâ following the retreat of Syrian troops, leaving the area vulnerable to terrorist activity and heavy weapons. Israeli forces have now taken control of key strategic sites, including the Syrian side of Mount Hermon.

Hezbollah has vowed retaliation against Israel following a series of deadly airstrikes in Syria that targeted military infrastructure and claimed numerous lives. The Iran-backed group condemned the attacks, accusing Israel of expanding its occupation in the Golan Heights and destabilizing the region. With Israeli forces advancing into buffer zones and seizing strategic Syrian territories, tensions are escalating. Hezbollahâs strong stance signals a potential escalation, as it pledges unwavering support for Syria and its people amid the aftermath of Bashar al-Assadâs ouster. The region braces for possible confrontations as rhetoric intensifies on both sides.

Israeli forces have launched a significant escalation in Syria, with Israeli tanks advancing to within 20 kilometers of Damascus following a strategic offensive in the Golan Heights. The assault, which includes relentless airstrikes, has severely crippled Syriaâs military defenses, destroying key military installations and air bases across the country. The Israeli army has rapidly advanced through several towns and villages in the southern countryside of Damascus, signaling a shift in the conflict. With military infrastructure in ruins and Israeli forces now dangerously close to the Syrian capital, the situation remains dire as tensions in the region reach a critical point.

In a bold statement, Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has accused the United States, Israel, and Turkey of orchestrating the downfall of Bashar al-Assad's government in Syria. Khamenei claims that the collapse of Assad's regime is the result of a joint "American-Zionist" plot, with Turkey also playing a significant role. This comes after the rapid advance of rebel forces in Syria, led by the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), which resulted in Assadâs regime losing control over key territories. As the situation unfolds, Khamenei also emphasized that Iranâs role in Syria is strictly "advisory." Watch as we dive into the geopolitical implications of these claims and what it means for the future of the Middle East.
