Western Damascus Countryside – An Israeli military incursion into the Syrian town of Beit Jinn ended in a significant setback for the occupation forces on Friday, resulting in numerous casualties and the abandonment of a military vehicle, according to Israeli and Syrian reports.
Israeli media confirmed that a force came under heavy fire at close range, leaving 13 soldiers wounded, three of them in critical condition. The confrontation was so intense that the soldiers were forced to retreat from the town, leaving behind a Hummer vehicle. Reports indicate that the Israeli Air Force later bombed the abandoned vehicle to prevent its capture.
The situation on the ground was described as chaotic. Israeli media revealed that air support, which rushed to the scene, was unable to carry out effective strikes due to the close-quarters nature of the fighting between the occupation soldiers and local fighters. Following the clash, the Israeli occupation army is continuing search operations in the area and reinforcing its ground presence.

Reconnaissance flights over Beit Jinn and the western Damascus countryside have been intensive in the aftermath of the events.
This incident underscores the ongoing violations of Syrian sovereignty by Israeli occupation forces, which have occupied large areas of southern Syria and conduct near-daily incursions into various regions.
