Israeli Attacks Target Agricultural Areas in Syria’s Quneitra


(MENAFN) Israeli forces shelled agricultural land in Quneitra province, southern Syria, on Monday, marking the latest breach of the country’s sovereignty, according to reports.

An artillery shell struck farmland in the town of Tal al-Ahmar al-Sharqi, though further details were not provided.

Earlier, on Friday, a Syrian man was killed after Israeli forces targeted a car with a tank shell in Al-Za’aroura village, also in Quneitra countryside.

Israeli military operations in Syria have continued nearly daily, including ground incursions, particularly in rural areas of Quneitra and Daraa. These actions have involved detaining civilians, establishing checkpoints to search and question passersby, and damaging farmland.

Israel has maintained control over much of Syria’s Golan Heights since 1967. Following the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December 2024, it declared the 1974 disengagement agreement void and moved to occupy the Syrian buffer zone.

Syrian officials assert that these ongoing violations are destabilizing the region and obstructing government efforts to attract investment and revive the national economy.
