After the overthrow of the Assad government in Syria, the Syrian Army has vacated its posts. As soon as the Syrian Army vacated the posts, the Israeli Army sent its army into the buffer zone that was formed 50 years ago and captured the area. In this way, Israel has unilaterally ended the 50-year-old ceasefire agreement and ended the buffer zone itself. Actually, the United Nations created a buffer zone by drawing blue lines and red lines in the Golan Heights between Syria and Israel in 1974. The ceasefire agreement has been implemented on the border of Syria and Israel.
A total of 145 Indian Army soldiers are deployed.
Israel has captured those posts of Syria, where the Syrian Army was deployed. At present, the Indian Army is also deployed in that area. According to media reports, a total of 145 Indian Army personnel are deployed there, including 11 JCOs, 124 soldiers and 10 officers. According to the information received, the UN has issued a code black alert level there. That is, the highest level of alert. The UN’s contingency plan is ready and the UN is currently in a wait and watch situation. The Indian Army is responsible for securing that buffer zone under the UN mandate. The next course of the mission will be decided only after the UN’s decision.
The Indian Army has been deployed there since 2006
Let us tell you that the Indian Army has been deployed there since 2006. Now the ground situation is different. In such a situation, now that Israel has ended the ceasefire and entered the buffer zone with its tanks, all the procedures are being reconsidered. The most shocking thing is that Israel violated the agreement and carried out construction work near the buffer zone last month. Not only this, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the Israel-Syria border. Israel probably knew that there was going to be an upheaval in Syria and in such a situation, a large number of terrorists could be attacked by Lebanon or rebels. This is the reason why Israel has already completed its preparations to save the Golan Heights, the land captured from Syria. However, no statement has been issued on Israeli action yet. And until the UN says so, the deployment of Indian Army will continue.
