About our Israel/Syria news

Latest news on Israel/Syria relations, providing comprehensive coverage of conflicts, military operations, peace negotiations and cross-border developments

The complex relationship between Israel and Syria remains one of the Middle East's most significant geopolitical challenges. Since Israel's establishment in 1948, the two nations have engaged in multiple wars, with their most direct confrontations occurring in 1948-49, 1967, and 1973. The Israeli occupation of the Golan Heights since 1967 continues to be a major point of contention.

Recent developments have dramatically altered the regional landscape. Following the collapse of the Assad regime in December 2024, Israel launched Operation Arrow of Bashan, conducting extensive military operations in southern Syria and establishing control over an expanded buffer zone beyond the 1974 ceasefire line. This included the occupation of strategic locations such as Quneitra and parts of Mount Hermon, while Israeli airstrikes significantly degraded Syria's military capabilities.

The humanitarian dimension of this conflict remains significant. Despite the ongoing state of war, Israel has previously provided medical aid to thousands of Syrian civilians through Operation Good Neighbor (2016-2018) and offered assistance following the 2023 earthquake. The Druze communities in the Golan Heights continue to maintain unique cross-border ties, with arrangements for apple exports and water supply demonstrating rare instances of cooperation.

The history of Israel-Syria relations has seen multiple attempts at peace negotiations, particularly during the 1990s when talks mediated by the United States came close to success. Key issues have included the precise location of borders, water rights, and security arrangements. The 1974 Separation of Forces Agreement, which established the UN Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF), had maintained relative stability along the ceasefire line for decades until recent events.

Our comprehensive NewsNow coverage brings you the latest developments in this evolving situation from reliable sources, including Israeli and Syrian state media, international news agencies, and diplomatic sources. Stay informed about military operations, diplomatic initiatives, humanitarian issues, and their impact on regional stability. Whether you're interested in strategic analysis, peace prospects, or humanitarian developments, our feed provides thorough coverage of this crucial Middle Eastern relationship.
