A large armored unit of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) advanced in southern Syria on March 19 and demolished several positions of the now dissolved Syrian Arab Army.
According to Daraa 24, a news blog that covers southern Syria, the unit, made up of some 50 vehicles, moved into the outskirts of the town of al-Nasriyah, which is located right along the administrative borders between the governorates of al-Qunitra and Daraa.
Photos shared by the blog showed Merkava main battle tanks and Humvee armored vehicles operating on a road leading to al-Nasriyah.
The unit demolished three military positions, Abu Diab Company, Cobra Company and Nasiriyah Dam Company, before withdrawing back to the buffer zone adjacent to the occupied Golan Heights.

Israeli troops invaded the buffer zone just hours after the fall of the Assad regime on December 8. The IDF also launched hundreds of strikes destroying much of the country’s military capabilities, including warships, warplanes, ballistic missiles and air defense systems.
Initially, the IDF described its presence in the buffer zone as a temporary and defensive measure. However, Defense Minister Israel Katz said later that troops will remain deployed to nine army posts in the zone , including one atop the strategic Mount Hermon, “indefinitely.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said last month that southern Syria must be completely demilitarized, warning that Israel would not accept the presence of the forces of the new Syrian Islamists government near its territory. The primer also warned the government against attacking the Druze, vowing to defend the minority.
In recent weeks, the IDF stepped up its strikes on Syria. A wave of strikes that hit military positions in Daraa over the night of March 17 and 18 killed at least four civilians and a soldier from the forces of the Syrian interim government.
The IDF also intensified its ground operations in southern Syria, conducting at least 19 such raids since the start of March, according to the Syrian Observatory For Human Rights, a London-based monitoring group.
The Syrian government condemned Israel’s actions. However, it has so far refrained from reacting in any way. This led to much criticism against the government, including from some of the Islamists who helped install it after the fall of the Assad regime.

imagine being neighbors with these jewish swine. this is the worst neighbor to have, they are never satisfied, never happy, always miserable and always stuck in a really dumb, self made chimpanzee crisis. you know, germans during 1920s and 1930s realized the problem. america today suffers from the same problem, only 100x worse and they cannot admit it.
they need to be relocated somewhere far away from decent people where they can do no harm. maybe chumpo could put them in his new greenland colony.
hopefully chumpo moves himself there too, for good

isis is an israeli mossad creation . repeating hasbara articles does nothing for the world . if your going to be a good mocking bird , you will need to learn some new songs .
destroy the state and build kibbutzim so that the wahhabi gang will have nowhere to stay. bibi, please order that no stone be left unturned and establish a kibbutzim. the other traitors who welcomed isis’s liberators should take isis with them to turkey.
russia loves jews and israel. same people nothing different. white=cancer all of them. i used to think russians are maybe normal people but no no no no. russia confirmed all white people are like cancer and they all need to die.
in southern lebanon israel is destroying modular tiny homes because innocent displaced people moving back home are called terrorist . greater israel project land grab .
syria, the new gaza ?
the jewish king of kings, jesus christ, son of yahweh, the god of abraham, isaak and jacob will establish zion that runs from the euphrates to the tigris. the jews are the pioneers and eventually a remnant of them will inhabit zion in peace for 1000 years.
during that process all of israel’s enemies and other godless will be wiped off the face of the earth and israel will be purified.
