The Israeli army conducted a two-hour paratrooper operation at military barracks in Al-Kiswah, located in the Damascus countryside, today. The operation involved dozens of soldiers, search equipment, and four helicopters, according to reports from Al Jazeera citing Syrian military sources.

No clashes were reported with Syrian forces during the operation, which underscores the ongoing tensions in the region. Al-Kiswah has been a focal point for military activities due to its proximity to the Syrian capital.

This operation comes amid escalating military actions in the area, as Israel has frequently targeted positions in Syria it deems threats to its national security. The Israeli Defense Forces have not commented on the operation yet, leaving many questions about its objectives and implications.

In related coverage, recent developments in international military engagements, such as U.S. fighter jets intercepting Russian spy planes, reflect a heightened state of military readiness in various global hotspots.
