The UN says Israel has violated the 1974 agreement
- Understanding what is happening in Syria and in the countries around it, and knowing what can come, is not easy. Everyone is looking there, in the middle of Israel, who wants to increase their presence.
What has happened in Syria has also caused a great shock to its neighbours, including Israel, for example. On Sunday, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar announced that he had bombed a number of Syrian military installations, including warehouses containing chemical weapons, as well as several warships, to avoid being captured by rebels who have attacked the Bashar Al-Assad government. The agencies also reported that the Israeli army intends to establish a "security zone" in southern Syria, taking control of the demilitarized zone between the two countries.
As for this operation, contradictory information has been made public in recent hours, as it is not clear how far the Israeli troops have come or whether they want to arrive.

For their part, several European countries have already announced that they will review the asylum policy of Syrian refugees in Haiti. Countries such as France, Austria, Belgium, Greece, Denmark and Norway, among others, have announced that they are going to suspend all applications that were being processed and that they will not accept new applications.
On the other hand, the rebels have released thousands of prisoners in Syrian jails. In the videos that have been broadcast you can see how some of them jump and run down the street, very happy, but without understanding well what is going on. Human rights organisations have repeatedly denounced the harsh situations in Syrian prisons. They say that torture was systematic and that there have been clandestine executions; since 2011, at least 100,000 people were “missing”.
The end of the Syrian Arab Republic has caused great surprise at the way in which it has taken place: fast and almost without resistance. However, it is not so strange when we consider that the country was destroyed, impoverished and trodden. Most Syrians have long been... [+]
