Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called the downfall of Bashar al-Assard in Syria an “historic day" for the Middle East and vowed to "take action against possible threats" in the country.
Israel’s military has moved reinforcements to the occupied Golan Heights – which it captured from Syria in 1967.
Netanyahu has announced his forces would temporarily seize the so-called buffer zone between the two countries which has existed since 1974.
He posted on X that the collapse of the Assad regime "offers great opportunity", but caveats that it is also "fraught with significant dangers".
The IDF also warned residents in five villages in southern Syria to stay in their homes because Israel would not hesitate to act if it felt it needed to.
