Jerusalem Post: Report: Israel vows to destroy Iranian positions within 40 km of Syrian border

Syrian President Bashar Assad reportedly offered Netanyahu a comprehensive deal that would include a demilitarized zone stretching 40 kilometers from the border.

Kuwaiti newspaper Al Jarida revealed on Sunday that an Israeli source disclosed a promise from Jerusalem to destroy all Iranian facilities within 40 kilometers (25 miles) of Israel's Golan Heights.

The source, who remains unnamed, said that during Syrian President Bashar Assad's surprise visit to Russia last week, Assad gave Russian Premier Vladimir Putin a message for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: Damascus will agree to a demilitarized zone of up to 40 kilometers from the border in the Golan Heights as part of a comprehensive agreement between the two countries, but only if Israel does not work to remove Assad's regime from power.

WNU Editor: The Israelis have made it very clear that they would destroy any permanent Iranian position in Syria .... Israel may ‘target’ Iran activity in Syria, Netanyahu said to tell Macron (Times of Israel). Given this ultimatum .... and if this report of Assad offering a demilitarized zone 40 kilometers from the Golan Heights is true .... I can only guess that this is Assad's way of looking for a compromise. Will the Israelis accept? Hmmmm .... we shall see.
