A unit of the Israeli army conducted an airborne landing on a strategic hilltop southwest of Damascus and carried out a two-hour operation before leaving the area, two Syrian army sources said.
They said the troops landed near Jabal Manea, which was once a major air defense base operated by Iran before being destroyed by Israel prior to the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s rule.
A number of troops from the new Syrian army are positioned at the base.
