Israel plans to create a buffer zone in Lebanon and Syria, Turkey’s Hurriyet newspaper reported on October 16, citing sources.
“Israel is doing everything to shift the fire from Lebanon to Syria. It is attacking Tartus, Hama, Homs, Aleppo, Dara and even the capital Damascus. It has moved its tanks into Syrian territory,” the newspaper said.
“It is clear that Israel wants to create a buffer zone in Lebanon by controlling all the lands up to the Litani River, and it will not be satisfied with creating a buffer zone in Lebanon only, as reports indicate that it is also seeking to create a buffer zone inside Syria,” it added.
The newspaper was apparently referring to an incident from October 11, during which an Israeli force reportedly advanced a few hundred meters into the southern Syrian governorate of al-Qunitra. This was denied by Syrian state media and local officials.
Separately, Reuters reported on October 15, citing security sources, that Israel removed mines and set up new barriers on the border between the occupied Syrian Golan Heights and the separation line with Syria.
The sources told the news agency that the Israeli move indicates that Israel may expand its ground operations and strike Hezbollah for the first time from the east along the Lebanese border, and create an area that can prevent the infiltration by the group’s fighters.
Israel has stepped up its attacks on Syria since the outbreak of the war in the Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip last October, targeting Syrian military sites as well as personnel of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hezbollah and other factions of the so-called Axis of Resistance.
After expanding operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon last month, the Israeli military announced that it will work to prevent the supply of any weapons from Iran to Hezbollah through the Lebanese-Syrian border.
Despite recent escalation, an Israeli invasion into southern Syria remains unlikely. Even a limited ground operation could further complicate the situation for Israel as Russian forces are present along the separation line in the Golan Heights.

the jews are thieves and liars. that is why they have been kicked out of over 100 countries over 2000 years. nobody trusts them. they do not deserve a country. what they deserve is permanent diaspora because they have proven they are totally unable to behave like civilized humans when it comes to running a thing like a country. just look at israel. enough said. land grabbers, gaslighters and murderers. zionism was always incompatible with peace and humanity
let’s call it proper names. it is not “buffer zone”. it is grabbing the land. when russia protect minorities in the ukraine (in fact they are majorities in donbas and lugansk), it is named an “agression”. when israel grabs land, kill muslims, christians, whatever, including un peacedickheads an un humanitarianaiddickheads, it is called “buffer zone”. you should all read double standards book by robert cooper to learn about their mindset
i do believe that the jewish lobby has a big influence in russia too. the russians seem to take very long to wake up out of their honeymoon daze with various groups, like the west and the jews. 2022 woke them up out of their stupid high hopes of fake diplomacy with the west. the question is, when will they wake up out of their daze with israel? russia has been far too accommodating to the idf in syria.
the only buffer there will be is in palestine. from the river to the sea, the land will be free from zionist scum and returned to their rightful owners
good luck with this when the only country who wants this and is not weak is iran. and before you ask no i dont think saudi arabia, turkey or pakistan are weak but they are friends of isreal.
israel has no friends – only interests.
everyone privately hates them.
fcking jew scum censoring every second comment…. awaiting approval… nice trick kyke.
you approve zero comments you corrupt fck
a not insignificant part of the elite in russia is jewish so no waking up possible. lenins body is still not burned and distributed to the wind like a genocidal murderer of slavs should have been dealt with and wouldbe lenin zelinsky who while beeing a long path away from the success of lenin is still sitting on the throne of the kiew rus. no change in sight.
lebensraum for the zios.
lebanonsraum :)
buffer zone equals land grab in yiddish
jews will steal anything anywhere. they have to steal lebanon/ syria/ wherever because moses had a crap there 4,000 years ago or something.
moses was a man of god, not the mentor for zionists. today he would fight the jews who don’t follow justice and equality. zionists follow distorted torah and kabala and what bs and call it judaism.
they follow talmud shmalmud
reported in a turkish paper, well what are the turks and arab countries going to do about it? because so far they have done nothing, many have been too busy supporting terrorism against the syrians, that includes the turks.
the long planned river-to-sea genocidal zio-dominance of the m.e. pre-approved, coordinated + part-facilitated by r.f, among others.
with allies like the kremlin + its pro-idf ‘defence’ system, who needs enemies? eh, bashar?
soon r.f. + murica/eu will openly be friends, with countless dead + injured just swept under the magic zio-carpet.
all hail the un’s impending m.e. détente (new borders and state names tbc later).
return the west bank and the golan heights and jerusalem and lebanon to the rightful owners and they might listen to you – if not the jews are toast and palestine ha a home. the jews must pay for reparations, fully!
i am looking forward to be told by prowestern people how a bufferzone in syria and lebanon is absolutely neccesary for isreal and denying it is antisemitic while a russian bufferzone in ukraine is the most insane idea they ever heard of and preventing it is neccesary for humanity to keep exiting.
the mostly shiite resistance axis should have never included sunite hamas into their alliance. what hamas did was a present to isreal and an opening to reach whatever goal they ever had. 10/07 is a gift that keeps giving to the israeli elites and might cause a new nakba in lebanon and syria.
golan heighs were a buffer zone before beeing occupoed by israël….
seems the jews are at the end of their wit (not much to expect there) and is trying to crawl out of the three front war they have started – with other words, they are about to lose and the iron dome is toast. not even the idiots in the white house can do much about it. from the river to the sea – in a judenfrei palestine!
still waiting for israeli cowards to strike at iran… its been nearly a month. what a bunch of real losers that can only hit woman and children.
the jews now know that iran can hit back and that the iron dome is out of fashion. iran and hamas and the iraqi resistence plus the houthis have excellent missiles that can penetrate the iron dome. plus low flying drones heavily loaded with high grade explosives are as made for the marketsquares in tel aviv and haifa u s w. no wonder the jews avoid those parties and aim for women and children in gaza!
“israel wants buffer zone in lebanon, syria”
oh yeah?
well i want a pony for christmas!
lol
die jews die!
