🐐 🇸🇾 🇮🇱 Israeli troops smuggled herd of 250 goats from Syria to West Bank farms

A battalion from the Golan Brigade, operating in the Golan Heights, was conducting a mission inside Syrian territory when it identified the herd — belonging to Syrian farmers — and brought it into Israeli territory, according to Channel 12 news.

The goats were then reportedly loaded onto trucks that were apparently prepared in advance and transported to several farms in illegal outposts in the West Bank, where livestock grazing is common.

The incident came to light the morning after the herd was smuggled, when farmers in the Golan Heights spotted dozens of goats wandering along the road and reported it to the army, prompting an investigation. Searches were reportedly still being carried out for the goats, some 200 of which were believed to be roaming in Israel, unmarked and unvaccinated, while the remainder of the herd was scattered inside Syrian territory.

Israeli forces have been deployed to nine posts inside southern Syria since the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December 2024, mostly within the UN-patrolled buffer zone on the border between the countries.

Troops have been operating in areas up to around 15 kilometers (some nine miles) deep into Syria, aiming to capture weapons that Israel says could pose a threat to the country if they fall into the hands of “hostile forces.”

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Strategic advisor to Iran's Parliament Speaker, Mahdi Mohammadi:

'We know that we are facing a regime-change war in which the only way to achieve victory is to make credible the threat that, during the 12-day war, although it was ready, did not get the opportunity to be carried out:

A geographically expansive war of attrition, focused on the Persian Gulf energy markets, on the basis of steadily increasing missile firepower, lasting at least several months'

"This is the 5th time the U.S. redirected a carrier strike group from Asia to the Middle East over the past two years: Roosevelt (July 2024), Lincoln (August 2024), Vinson (April 2025), Nimitz (June 2025), and Lincoln (2026)."

"Every time, misinformation about the carrier fleet permeates across social media. The latest rumor that USS George H.W. Bush is sailing across the Atlantic is, as of now, just that - I’ve seen no signs or confirmation of a deployment. CVN 77 hasn’t deployed since 2023 and, following an extended 11-month availability, was scheduled to complete weeks of COMPTUEX training first. However, as I and others have noted, GWBCSG is available and could surge on deployment. As of 15 hours ago, she was pinging on AIS ~100nm off the east coast."
