Israel Has Now Begun Invading Syria And Has Already Annexed Part Of Its Land Near The Border
This is the first time since a war in 1973 that Israeli troops crossed into Syrian territory.
After rebels toppled president Bashar al-Assad and his regime, Israel has begun invading and annexed parts of Syria.
This is the first time since a war in 1973 that Israeli troops crossed into Syrian territory.
After rebels freed Syria on Dec. 8, Israel seized a buffer zone on their border, with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying it was to ensure Israel’s safety.
He later declared Syria's Golan Heights, which Israel has been illegally occupying, will be part of Israel "for eternity".
Israel troops then pushed beyond the buffer zone and invaded Syria.
It took control of Mount Hermon and other areas, getting closer to the capital, Damscus.
It also bombed multiple sites and destroyed Syria's navy.
Israel said its attacks are to stop weapons falling in the wrong hands, but analysts say israel may have other motives.
