STORYLINE:
Israeli forces have seized a buffer zone in the Golan Heights established by a 1974 ceasefire agreement with Syria after a lightning rebel advance ended Syrian President Bashar Assad’s rule.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that the decades-old agreement had collapsed and that Syrian troops had abandoned their positions, necessitating the Israeli takeover.
Israel captured the Golan Heights in the 1967 Mideast war and annexed it. The international community, except for the United States, views it as occupied Syrian territory.
