Additional Israeli strikes targeted the southern and central regions of Syria on March 18, resulting in material losses only.
In the afternoon, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claimed responsibility for several strikes that hit the town of Khan Arnabeh in the southern Syrian governorate of al-Qunitra. In a brief statement, the military said that it had struck artillery systems located just outside the buffer zone along the Israel-Syria border.
The IDF alleged systems had posed a threat to Israel, and warned that it “will not allow the existence of a military threat in southern Syria and will act against it.”
Later in the evening, another wave of Israeli strikes targeted bases of the former Syrian Arab Army in the central governorate of Homs.
The strikes, which were not officially claimed by the IDF, hit bases in the towns of Shinshar and Shamsin in the southern Homs countryside, according to Reuters. No casualties were reported.
Following the fall of the Assad regime last December, the IDF invaded the buffer zone adjacent to the Golan Heights in al-Quneitra and established nine posts there, including two atop the strategic Mount Hermon. The military also launched hundreds of strikes against the country, destroying much of its combat capabilities.
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 Syria’s Islamist government near its territory.
The recent days saw an uptake in Israeli strikes on Syria, with at least four killed in an attack that targeted bases in the southern governorate of Daraa on March 17.
