Israel’s Army Radio reported Sunday that the Israel Defense Forces had seized the peak of Mount Hermon, the highest mountain in the region, as a precaution against the advance of Syrian rebels as the Assad regime collapsed.
In that conflict, Syria and Egypt surprised Israel with an attack on the Jewish faith’s holiest day. Syrian troops took over an Israeli base lower down on the mountainside on the first day of the war, October 6, killing many troops from the elite Golani brigade. Israel eventually returned the Syrian base at the peak as a part of a deconfliction agreement at the end of the war.
