The Israeli army carried out separate incursions into Syria's southern provinces of Daraa and Quneitra on Tuesday, according to the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA).
In Daraa, troops entered the village of Mariya in the Yarmouk Basin area, searched several civilian homes and withdrew without making any arrests.
An Israeli force of six military vehicles and a Hilux vehicle moved near the Jbata al-Khashab quarries junction in northern Quneitra province, SANA reported.
The forces established a temporary checkpoint, stopped and searched civilians, and later withdrew from the area.
SANA said Israeli forces have continued earthmoving operations since Monday and worked to reopen an old dirt road north of Wadi al-Raqad, using a bulldozer accompanied by a tank and a pickup truck.
