As Assad was toppled on December 8, Israel deployed troops to the UN-patrolled buffer zone on the Golan Heights, which has separated Israeli and Syrian forces since an armistice that followed the 1973 Arab-Israeli war.

Israel has also launched hundreds of air strikes on targets in Syria and carried out incursions deeper into the south. Syria's new authorities have not responded to the attacks.

He said that Israel believed that Syria had "quit" the 1974 disengagement agreement after Assad's fall, "even though Syria, from the first moment, expressed its commitment" to the accord.

"Now, negotiations are underway on a security agreement to return Israel to where it was before December 8," Sharaa said.
