Having learned a hard lesson in Gaza on 10/7, Israeli forces penetrated the Quneitra area on Saturday, accompanied by tanks, bulldozers and trench digging equipment.
A reporter for the Syrian news network "Enab Baladi" in southern Syria stated that the Israeli army penetrated the border strip to a depth of up to 200 meters inside Syrian territory and began, with the help of a bulldozer, to level agricultural lands, dig ditches and build dirt surfaces as part of the "Sofa 53" road project.
The reporter added that Israel brought bulldozers and heavy equipment accompanied by a chariot tank and a covering force and work forces, consisting of several soldiers, and workers digging trenches, and that the equipment entered repeatedly and worked from morning to evening before returning to Israeli territory.
The reporter noted that Israeli equipment is currently operating west of the village of Jobta al-Khasab and under one of the Israeli observation posts in the Shahar area, where four machines are working together to dig trenches.
