Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a briefing on Mount Hermon's summit on Syrian territory, a strategic location overlooking Damascus, a statement from the prime minister's office said on Tuesday (December 17).
In a statement, Netanyahu said: "We will stay in this important place until another arrangement is found that ensures Israel's security."
Israel pledged on Sunday (December 15) to double its population on the occupied Golan Heights while saying threats from Syria remained despite the moderate tone of rebel leaders who ousted President Bashar al-Assad a week ago.
Israel has carried out extensive airstrikes on Syria’s military assets since Assad’s fall and has moved into a demilitarized zone inside Syria that was created after the 1973 Arab-Israeli war, including the Syrian side of the strategic Mount Hermon summit.
Syria's de facto leader, Ahmad al-Sharaa, said on Saturday (December 12) that Israel was using false pretexts to justify its attacks on Syria, but that he was not interested in engaging in new conflicts as the country focuses on rebuilding.
