Syria - June 07, 2025 The Syrian government has accused Israel of constructing a new military base in the occupied Quneitra region of southern Syria, near the Golan Heights. According to state media and official sources, the base is being built by the Israeli army in a zone internationally recognized as Syrian territory under occupation. Syrian authorities condemned the move as a violation of international law and sovereignty, warning that it signals further militarization of the occupied Golan and increased risk of escalation in the region. Israel has not officially commented on the construction, but the area has seen heightened military activity in recent months, including reported Israeli airstrikes on Syrian and allied positions. The Quneitra region borders both the Golan Heights and southwestern Syria and has long been a sensitive flashpoint in the Arab-Israeli conflict.
