JERUSALEM (AA) - The Israeli army transferred and installed military equipment in the demilitarized zone in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, according to the military on Tuesday.

"As part of the logistical effort, equipment was provided to the forces to withstand stormy weather conditions, uniquely suited to the severe weather in the area,” the army said in a statement on X.

The army said it established infrastructure and equipment “capable of withstanding various weather conditions, including temporary structures with an additional layer of insulation, heating equipment, generators, and a water heating system."

"The comprehensive response also included, among other things, a unique medical building for treating cold-related injuries equipped with the necessary tools, as well as kitchens and a dining hall to provide hot meals for the soldiers."

According to the statement, thousands of winter supplies have been distributed to soldiers in the area with equipment tailored for snowy conditions, including heating bags, raincoats, and winter boots.

The Israeli army occupied the buffer zone in the Golan Heights in early December 2024, violating the 1974 Disengagement Agreement with Syria, in a move that expanded Israel's control over the Golan Heights, most of which it has occupied since the 1967 Middle East War.

At the time, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that the seizure of the demilitarized zone was "temporary," without specifying a date for the army's withdrawal from the area.

Bashar Assad, Syria’s leader for nearly 25 years, fled to Russia after anti-regime groups took control of Damascus on Dec. 8, ending the Baath Party’s regime, which had been in power since 1963.

A new administration led by Ahmed Al-Sharaa has now taken control of the country.
