The statement specified that this move is necessary for security purposes, until a "force" appears that will ensure the implementation of the 1974 disengagement agreement,
"Israel will not allow jihadist groups to fill this vacuum and pose a threat to Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights in the style of the October 7 attacks. That is why Israeli forces entered the buffer zone and took control of strategic locations near the Israeli border. This deployment is temporary until a force committed to the 1974 agreement emerges and security at our border is guaranteed," the statement said.
