Israeli troops searched passersby at a checkpoint in Jabata al-Khashab on Tuesday, Anadolu Agency reported, a day after SANA said Israeli fire was directed toward journalists in rural Quneitra.
Alikhbariah TV, cited by Anadolu, said the checkpoint was at the town entrance. It did not say whether anyone was detained or how long the checkpoint operated.
On Monday, the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) said Israeli forces fired toward several journalists documenting activity in rural Quneitra; no injuries were reported. SANA condemned the targeting of one of its correspondents as a violation of press freedom.
Anadolu also described checkpoint reports from Saturday and Monday. Alikhbariah TV reported the Saturday post at the Al-Kassarat junction in Jabata al-Khashab. Anadolu’s account said passersby were searched at a checkpoint on the Rasem al-Halabi junction during Monday’s incursion. Both locations are in Quneitra province in southern Syria.
