Syria claims attack on IDF — Israel did not identify any launches
A jihadist organization claims it launched a rocket and a suicide drone at IDF forces in the southern Golan Heights; the IDF did not identify any launches but is investigating the report. Simultaneously, there were reports in Syria of Israeli activity in the Quneitra area.
The Syrian front: A jihadist organization, Ula al-As (Messengers of God), claims that it launched a rocket and a suicide drone this morning (Monday) at the forces of the 747th Brigade in the southern Golan Heights, in the Syrian security zone. Members of the organization published two videos of the launches. The IDF states that they did not identify any launches, no interception was carried out, and no alerts were activated, but the Bashan Division and the Air Force are investigating the report.
Simultaneously, the "Syrian Center" reported this morning that "Israeli forces infiltrated the Tel Abu Qabis area this morning, located in the southern countryside of Quneitra. The enemy forces carried out a large explosion in the town of Zutar al-Sharqiya." The IDF states that the forces did not exceed the security zone that the IDF holds. The activity that the IDF is conducting in the area is enforcement activity to prevent the establishment of terror pockets in the security zone in Syria.

Meanwhile, a sharp confrontation recently occurred between Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar and his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan, after the latter accused Israel of violating Syria's sovereignty and called on the international community to exert pressure on it. Fidan said:
"Israel's attacks, aimed at the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Syria, are one of the most serious threats to the country's stability. The international community must demonstrate a firmer response in the face of Israel's occupying mentality. It must exert the necessary pressure to ensure compliance with the 1974 Disengagement of Forces Agreement and respect for Syria's sovereignty."
In response, Sa'ar published a sharp statement on the X network in which he accused Turkey of hypocrisy and violating the sovereignty of countries in the region:
"Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan accuses Israel of undermining stability in Syria because it is taking the minimum measures necessary to protect the citizens of Israel from attacks. These are the same Turkish leaders who for decades have violated the sovereignty of Syria, and cynically lecture others on international law."
