IDF troops operating in southern Syria reportedly advanced into the town of Madinat al-Baath in the Quneitra Governorate.
Local Syrian media outlets say that Israeli forces entered several government buildings in the town to search them.
There is no immediate comment from the IDF.
Madinat al-Baath is located within a buffer zone between Israel and Syria, which the IDF entered following the fall of the Assad regime.
