Two Israeli occupation military patrols penetrated the western countryside of Daraa on Tuesday evening, conducting incursions into the Yarmouk Basin and Wadi al-Raqad areas amid vehicle movements, gunfire, and a raid on a private residence, according to local reports.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that one Israeli patrol entered the vicinity of the “Jamla Company” also known as the “Valley Company” located on the road between the villages of Jamla and Saissoun in the Yarmouk Basin. The patrol’s vehicles deployed around the site before advancing toward the village of Jamla, where they opened fire on residential neighborhoods. No casualties have been reported.

Separately, a second Israeli patrol consisting of three military vehicles entered the Wadi al-Raqad area and raided a house, while a drone was observed flying overhead, the Observatory added.

These actions form part of a series of ongoing Israeli incursions and military operations in the western countryside of Daraa and across southern Syria.

Israeli occupation forces continue to violate the 1974 Disengagement Agreement through frequent incursions into southern Syria, including raiding civilian homes, conducting arrests, bulldozing land, and carrying out attacks involving shelling.
