On the afternoon of Sunday, June 28, 4 Israeli occupation vehicles infiltrated the village of Abdeen, located in the area of the Yarmouk Basin in the western countryside of Daraa, adjacent to the occupied Syrian Golan.
Local sources in the town of al-Shajara, near the village of Abdeen, said gunfire was heard shortly after the Israeli vehicles entered before it was determined that the fire was coming from rifles and machine guns from Israeli patrol members who fired indiscriminately to disperse the villagers who had gathered in the village.
The sources pointed out that a patrol of the United Nations International Separation Force (UNDOF) arrived in the village in response to calls from the residents before the Israeli patrol withdrew to the nearby "Tal al-Maghr" site.
Israeli forces captured "Talat al-Maghr", a former military post, and established its headquarters there, and linked it to "Tal al-Jazira" by building a military road, after occupying it on the eve of the fall of the regime on December 8, 2024.
Israeli force infiltrates the village of Jumala
In addition, another Israeli occupation force infiltrated the village of Jamla in the western countryside of Daraa this afternoon, according to local sources, as it set up checkpoints and fired bullets, which led to cutting off the road connecting the towns of Jamla and Abdeen.
According to the correspondent, this move constitutes the first public daytime incursion carried out by Israeli forces in the area, after their previous movements were limited to periodic night incursions.
During May, the "Sijil" human rights center documented a total of 480 violations committed by Israeli forces in Syria during the past three months, and the violations during the past month were mainly concentrated in Quneitra governorate, which recorded 163 violations, followed by Daraa governorate with 41 violations, while one violation was recorded in Damascus governorate, which was an airline flight.
Israeli violations escalate in 72 hours
On Saturday-Sunday night, Israeli forces penetrated deep into the Yarmouk Basin in the western countryside of Daraa through two field tracks, one from the Al-Jazeera barracks towards Ma'ariyya, Abdeen and Tal al-Maghr, and the second from the gate of Tal Abu al-Ghithar to Jamala, where they were stationed inside the Wadi Company.
Local sources spoke of military tents set up in Tal al-Maghr, the firing of bullets and flares, in addition to the operation of laser lighting and the deployment of snipers before carrying out heavy bursts of heavy machine guns targeting agricultural lands to terrorize farmers and prevent them from ploughing their lands.
The incursions came within an escalating pace during 72 hours, as on Friday, June 26, 6 incursions of 19 vehicles entered three towns, with raids, searches of houses, the establishment of checkpoints, and intensive flight of drones, while on Saturday, June 27, 8 vehicles stormed the village of Jumleh, and another of the 7 vehicles entered Maaria and set up a checkpoint east of the mosque.
So far, there has been no official comment from the Syrian Ministry of Defense on these developments.
