Israeli forces have reportedly taken control of Mount Hermon’s peak, establishing a new military position overlooking Damascus' southwestern countryside.
According to local sources cited by Al Mayadeen, the IDF has been combing the entire peak, seizing military equipment and the wreckage of an Israeli helicopter downed during the 1973 October War.
Simultaneously, Israeli tanks and armored patrols have advanced into Syria’s Quneitra countryside, infiltrating the al-Hamidiyah axis toward al-Baath.
Reports indicate that Israeli forces have targeted homes and farms in central Quneitra villages while indiscriminately firing on the al-Hamidiyah and al-Hurriya forests.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have made a shocking accusation, claiming that Hamas militants murdered Ariel and Kfir Bibas with their bare hands while they were held hostage. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari emphasized that the young boys were not killed in an airstrike or by gunfire but instead met a brutal fate at the hands of their captors. This grim revelation has further escalated tensions, with Israel demanding accountability for Hamas' treatment of hostages. The release of their bodies from captivity has only deepened the outrage, adding to the already volatile situation.

Hamas accuses Israel of being responsible for the deaths of the Bibas family, claiming they were killed in Israeli airstrikes weeks into the war. The militant group staged a public display before handing over the bodies of four Israeli hostages, including Shiri Bibas and her two young children. Hamas alleges that the Bibas children were held in an IDF Gaza Division office "out of compassion" before being killed. Israeli officials have strongly condemned these claims, calling them propaganda. This marks the first time Hamas has returned dead hostages since the ceasefire began.

Hamas has announced an indefinite suspension of Israeli hostage releases, citing multiple ceasefire violations by Israel. The militant group accused Israel of delaying the return of displaced Palestinians to northern Gaza, targeting civilians with shelling, and blocking humanitarian aid. The latest hostage exchange, scheduled for Saturday, has now been halted. In response, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz condemned Hamas’s decision as a “complete violation” of the truce and ordered the IDF to prepare for potential military action. The ceasefire agreement, which has facilitated previous hostage swaps, now faces growing uncertainty.

Hamas has released three Israeli hostages under tight security in Gaza as part of a prisoner exchange deal. The chilling moment was captured on video, showing the hostages flanked by heavily armed Hamas fighters as they were handed over to the Red Cross. Unlike previous releases, the hostages displayed no visible relief or emotion, holding up their release certificates in silence while Israel closely observed the exchange. The Israeli Defense Forces later escorted them out of Gaza for medical evaluations. The highly controlled event underscores the tense negotiations and ongoing conflict in the region.

US President Donald Trump appears to step back from his controversial Gaza plan after Egypt and Jordan voiced strong opposition. In a Fox News interview, Trump admitted he was “a little bit surprised” by their rejection. His proposal aimed to “take over” Gaza, eliminate Hamas, and restart development under US control. However, without regional buy-in, Trump now says he will not force the plan but will “sit back and recommend it.” This shift signals potential challenges in implementing any long-term strategy for Gaza’s future governance and stability.
