In a bold move, Israeli forces penetrated Syrian territory to capture a terror operative collaborating with Iranian agents, as unveiled by the Israel Defense Forces on Sunday evening. The elite Egoz commando unit successfully apprehended Ali Suleiman al-Aadi, a Syrian resident of Saida, for espionage activities targeting Israeli forces at the border.

The IDF, confirming al-Aadi's detention, emphasized that he was under surveillance for gathering intelligence critical to future terror operations. Now in Israeli custody, he faces interrogation. An IDF statement asserted their resolve: 'The IDF will persist in securing the borders, thwarting the establishment of the Iranian axis and hostile activities from southern Syria.'

Footage released by the IDF features al-Aadi recounting his recruitment by an Iranian agent masquerading as a Syrian army officer. This revelation emerges amidst heightened Iranian threats following Israeli strikes on October 26. As regional tensions escalate, the US has deployed B-52 bombers to the Middle East in a show of strength, aligning with Gen. Michael 'Erik' Kurilla's talks with Israeli military leaders.
