IDF Seizes Over 3,300 Weapons in Southern Syria Since Assad Regime's Fall, Amid Multi-Front War
Jan 15, 2025, 12:04 PM
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reported seizing over 3,300 weapons and military equipment from southern Syria since the fall of the Assad regime. The captured items include two tanks, 70 grenades, 165 rockets, 20 anti-aircraft missiles, and 1,500 rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs). The IDF's operations in Syria are part of a broader multi-front war that has seen the confiscation of over 170,000 military items across various conflict zones. The Israeli military's actions in Syria have been criticized as a territorial grab, with forces deployed beyond the demilitarized buffer zone in the occupied Golan Heights, violating the 1974 Disengagement Agreement. Local Syrians have expressed concerns over the Israeli military's presence, which has extended to within 20 kilometers of Damascus.
