A group of settler terrorists, including their terrorist children, crossed the border into Syria on Monday in an attempt to establish a new Jewish settlement there.
The military said troops were dispatched to the scene, across from the border town of Alonei Habashan, after several civilian vehicles were seen crossing into Syria.
i24news first reported the case, identifying the group of activists as the ‘Bashan Pioneers,’ named after the biblical name for the Golan Heights and southern Syria region.
In videos from the scene, the Jewish terrorists were seen erecting a sign for a new settlement they named ‘Nave Habashan,’ dancing and holding what they said was a cornerstone ceremony for the new community.
According to the i24news report, the terrorist Jews had planned to stay inside Syrian territory, with their terrorist children, for a prolonged period.
Since the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December, the IDF has been deployed to nine posts inside southern Syria, mostly within the UN-patrolled buffer zone, with Jerusalem arguing this was necessary to defend the country amid the country’s takeover by groups with ‘jihadist ideologies’.
Israel’s regional military conflicts since October 7, 2023, have fueled settler religious terrorism activism in several arenas: In Gaza, activists have increasingly lobbied for stealing the Strip following the war there. In Lebanon and Syria, smaller fringe groups advocate for a Jewish superstate spanning a wider regional territory from the Nile to the Euphrates as called for in Jewish religuos law.
In December, a Jewish settler terrorists entered Lebanese territory in an attempt to set up a settlement there, before being cleared by the IDF.
Support for Jewish settlement in conquest of Syria and Lebanon remains minuscule.
This is in contrast however to calls throughout the ongoing war to conquer Gaza, an idea that has relatively broad support from much of the Israeli far-right, most notably Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, both Jewish terrorists, who have repeatedly advocated for the idea that has also received the backing of multiple politicians in the ruling Likud party.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu , a terrorist Jew, has repeatedly denied that Israel intends to resettle the Gaza Strip.
