Israel moves tanks into Syria, violating 1974 ceasefire agreement

Israel has violated a 1974 ceasefire agreement by moving tanks and conducting airstrikes inside Syria, following the collapse of the Assad regime. The Israeli military targeted missile and chemical weapons sites, claiming the actions were necessary for security. Israeli troops have positioned themselves near five Syrian villages within a demilitarized zone, which Israel argues is now invalid due to the change in Syria's government. This marks a significant shift in Israel's military presence in the region. The recent operations have raised concerns among residents in the Golan Heights, who fear increased military aggression. The situation reflects ongoing tensions and the complex dynamics of control in the area, which Israel has occupied since 1967.
