Israel conducts airstrikes on Syrian army bases while denying deeper military involvement

Israel has conducted extensive airstrikes on Syrian army bases over the past three days, targeting military equipment to prevent it from falling into hostile hands. Despite reports of Israeli troops advancing into Syria, Israel denies any movement beyond a designated buffer zone. In Syria, banks have reopened for the first time since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, marking a significant step towards normalcy. Shops and traffic have resumed, and a transitional government is being formed, with discussions involving former rebel leaders. The situation remains tense, with regional countries condemning Israel's actions. The Israeli military claims its operations are limited to ensuring security and are not an intervention in Syria's ongoing conflict.
