According to reports from the Syrian state news agency SANA, Israeli forces carried out a military operation in the village of Jamla, located in the western countryside of Deraa in southern Syria. The report states that a civilian, who was identified as having a disability, was shot and killed during the raid.

This incident occurs within the broader context of ongoing regional tensions and frequent reports of military activity along the border areas between Israel and Syria. While SANA characterizes the event as a targeted killing of a civilian, the lack of independent verification or statements from the Israeli side leaves the specific circumstances of the engagement, such as the intent or the presence of other combatants, unconfirmed. The report does not provide details regarding the specific date of the raid or the identity of the victim beyond their disability status. As of now, the Israeli military has not issued a statement confirming or denying the operation in Jamla, nor have they addressed the claims made by Syrian state media.
