<p>Thirteen Israeli troops were injured on Friday during an overnight incursion into the Syrian village of <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/israeli-damascus-advance-breaches-sovereignty--fuels-tension" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beit Jinn</a>, in the Damascus countryside.</p>
<p>Among the thirteen injured were three critically wounded in
confrontations that broke out with locals, Israeli media outlets
reported. Reports indicate three Israeli soldiers were critically
injured in the overnight raid, as Israeli occupation forces attempted to
detain and abduct several individuals from Beit Jinn, whom they claim
are affiliates of the Islamic Group. </p>
<h2>Details of the confrontations</h2>
<p>Elite troops from the 55th Paratroopers Brigade of the 98th Elite
Division raided the town of Beit Jinn, which is located just a few
hundred meters from the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force
(UNDOF) Zone. During their attempt to detain some of the individuals,
gunfire broke out from locals, forcing a withdrawal. </p>
<p>An Israeli Humvee vehicle used in the incursion was subsequently left
behind. Then, according to Israeli reports, the Israeli Air Force
raided the area and bombed the abandoned vehicle. Among the three
seriously injured troops were two officers of the 55th Brigade.</p>
<p>Israeli occupation forces said they detained three individuals during
the raid, but the ensuing confrontations and Israeli strikes left at
least 13 people dead and 25 others injured in the Syrian village.
According to the <em>Syrian News Channel</em>, several others remain trapped beneath the rubble left by the bombardment.</p>

<h2>Unabated Israeli aggression </h2>
<p>The recurrent incursions are adding to a pattern, as noted by Syrian authorities, of <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/israeli-occupation-patrol-installs-temporary-checkpoint-in-q" target="_blank" rel="noopener">persistent Israeli military aggression</a>
in southern Syria, particularly around buffer zones and areas near the
Israeli-occupied Golan Heights or former separation zones. These attacks
underscore the continuing Israeli strategy of aggression across
southern Syrian territories under the pretext of counterterrorism or
security. The repeated ground raids, use of air and artillery fire,
detainments, and abductions continue to represent a serious breach of
Syrian sovereignty.</p>
<p>The toll on civilians, including deaths, injuries, abductions, and
damage to homes, contributes to growing instability in affected areas.</p>
<p>Pointing to the increasingly volatile state in the Syrian south,
around eight Israeli settlers reportedly crossed into Syrian-held
territory from the UNDOF line. In the occupied Syrian Golan, the
intruders reportedly breached the zone using a disc saw and reached Bir
al-Ajam, opposite the settlement of Aloni Habashan, before being
escorted back by Israeli occupation forces.</p>
<p>At another point, <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/israeli-settlers-join-iof-violations--incursions-in-syria" target="_blank" rel="noopener">settlers raided Syrian lands</a> in the Mount Hermon area.</p>
<p>Together, these incidents highlight an escalating Israeli occupation
campaign that is steadily eroding the security of Syria\u2019s southern
frontier, where the occupation insists it <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/katz-says--israel--won-t-recognize-palestine-or-withdraw-fro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">will not withdraw</a> due to the area\u2019s strategic value, a stance that may point to further deterioration and instability in the region.</p>
