The Syrian military recently returned to the Golan Heights buffer zone and deployed its forces along the border, prompting the IDF response.Nahal Brigade soldiers and Engineering Corps commandos from the Yahalom special unit destroyed the outposts without incident.“You’re facing the enemy; you’re about 500 meters away,” Nahal Brigade Capt. Michael Zilberg told the N12 news site. “A mission like this requires that you to be very focused.”The operation included “making our way in a silent and covert manner to the targets, placing explosives on both outposts and blowing them up simultaneously,” a Yahalom team commander told N12.Nahal Brigade Lt.-Col. Tal Goritzki said the mission accomplished more than just punishing the Syrians for violating the agreement.“We know about the collaboration between the Syrian military and Hezbollah,” he told N12. “Every Syrian military establishment has the potential to become a dual military establishment. We won’t allow southern Syria to become southern Lebanon.”The IDF has been focused in recent years on preventing Hezbollah and Iran from establishing terrorist positions on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights and has attacked them from the air.كشف النقاب: قبل أسابيع (تحديدًا ليل ٢١ من سبتمبر) قامت قوات جيش الدفاع باقتحام موقعيْن متقدميْن تابعيْن للجيش السوري في منطقة فض الاشتباك شرق السياج الأمني شمال هضبة #الجولان وتدميرها. وكان #الجيش_السوري يستخدم المواقع المدمّرة بهدف الاستطلاع والأمن الروتيني (فيديو من العملية) pic.twitter.com/8EU8LG1qsG
