what region doe sisrael annex in syria recently in the past 2 yers

Israel’s occupied Syrian Golan Heights is the region most commonly referred to in recent reports, and the area near Quneitra in southern Syria has also seen new Israeli incursions and checkpoints in the past two years.

What happened

  • The Golan Heights has been under Israeli occupation since 1967, and recent coverage says Israel expanded its presence further into the Syrian buffer zone after the Assad government fell.
  • Reports in 2025–2026 also mention activity in Quneitra , which sits inside the Golan area and along the frontier zone.
  • Some articles describe this as occupation or de facto expansion , not universally as formal annexation, because most of the world does not recognize Israel’s sovereignty there.

Simple answer

If you mean the place Israel “annexed” or is trying to absorb in Syria, the answer is the Golan Heights.

If you mean the area where recent military moves happened, it is mainly southern Syria around Quneitra and the buffer zone near the Golan Heights.

TL;DR

  • Main region: Golan Heights.
  • Recent expansion/incursions: Quneitra and the southern buffer zone.
  • Status: widely treated as occupied territory , not legally recognized annexation.
