Israeli forces carry out incursion in southern Syria

Israeli forces late on Wednesday carried out a raid in the western countryside of Daraa province, south Syria, according to the Syrian state news agency SANA.

Eight military vehicles reportedly advanced toward a bridge in Wadi al-Raqad, located in the Yarmouk Basin, and subsequently deployed across the area. 

The latest incursion comes less than a week before Israeli forces carried out a similar raid into the nearby town of Jamlah.

Israeli attacks and raids into Syria are ongoing, despite stipulations against such operations according to the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.
