Fresh military action near Syria border puts new peace deal at risk
Israeli forces hit targets close to Syria-Lebanon crossing points just days after reaching new agreement. Both sides point fingers at each-other for breaking newly-established rules
In late nov 2024‚ Israeli Defense Forces conducted new strikes near Lebanon despite recent peace talks. The military action happened at border-points between Lebanon and Syria which connect these middle-eastern countries
The operation targeted what IDF called weapon-transfer spots (used by Hezbollah forces to move military equipment from Syria). This action came right after both sides made steps toward peace: the cease-fire deal was supposed to stop cross-border fighting
IDF officials stated that their response was needed because Hezbollah broke the rules first - they kept moving weapons through border checkpoints after signing the agreement. The Lebanese groupʼs actions made peace very hard to keep; both sides now say the other one isnt following the deal
The strikes show how quick things can change in this area - the cease-fire lasted only a few days before new problems came up. The border region stays active with military moves‚ even though everyone agreed to keep peace just days ago
