The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have conducted significant military operations in southern Syria aimed at expanding their buffer zone along the Golan Heights border. Over the past 48 hours, the IDF has reportedly attacked and secured most strategic weapon stockpiles to prevent them from falling into the hands of terrorist groups. The operations involve the deployment of four brigade-level task forces under the 210th Bashan Regional Division, including the Paratrooper and Commando Brigades, which were reinforced with armored units. Notably, the IDF has captured several Syrian tanks during these operations, with the 474th Brigade specifically noted for confiscating tanks and the 810th Brigade seizing weapons on Mount Hermon. The military has stated that these operations were conducted without firing a single shot, and a series of videos documenting the actions have been published by the IDF.
