Zionist war minister, Israel Katz, ordered the military to prepare for an extended deployment in the buffer zone with Syria in the occupied Golan Heights, citing security concerns amid the ongoing turmoil in Syria.
“Due to the situation in Syria, it is of critical security importance to maintain our presence at the summit of Mount Hermon,” Katz said in a statement. “Every effort must be made to ensure the army’s readiness to remain there, even under harsh winter conditions.”
Since the collapse of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s government, The Zionist entity has reinforced its military presence in the buffer zone, a strip of land on the Syrian side of the demarcation line established after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. The area was designated under a United Nations-brokered Agreement on Disengagement.
