Daraa, March 4 (SANA) Israeli occupation forces carried out an incursion into the Wadi al-Raqad area in the western Daraa countryside on Wednesday morning in a new violation of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement between Syria and Israel.
SANA’s reporter in Daraa said that a force consisting of seven military vehicles entered Wadi al-Raqad and set up a checkpoint on the al-Raqad bridge, while six other vehicles were stationed at the Tell Abu al-Ghithar gate.
He added that Israeli soldiers deployed along the road extending from the gate to the entrance of Wadi al-Raqad, opposite the towns of Jamla and Saisoun.
The move came a day after Israeli forces arrested four people from the villages of Ain al-Abd and al-Asbah in the southern Quneitra countryside.
Israel has repeatedly carried out attacks and incursions into Syrian territory, including raids, arrests and land razing in the south, in violation of the 1974 Disengagement Agreement.
Syria stresses that the presence of Israeli forces on its territory is “illegitimate” and that all Israeli measures in the region are “null and void and have no legal effect” under international law. It calls on the international community to intervene to stop “occupation practices” and compel Israel to withdraw from Syrian territory.
