Israeli forces conducted a deadly raid in the southern Syrian village of Beit Jin on Friday, resulting in the deaths of at least 10 people, according to Syrian officials and residents. The operation, which Israel said targeted members of an armed group suspected of planning attacks, escalated into violence when residents confronted the troops. Several Israeli soldiers were injured, and families fled the area amid heavy gunfire and aerial strikes.
The incident comes as tensions remain high across the region, with Israel carrying out airstrikes in neighboring Lebanon and ongoing concerns about the fragile ceasefire in Gaza. Syrian officials have condemned the incursions as violations of sovereignty, while local residents dispute Israel's claims about the identities of those killed. The violence highlights the risk of broader conflict as negotiations for a security agreement between Israel and Syria continue.
