Civilians fleeing Syria's war will not be allowed to enter Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday adding however that his government will continue providing them with humanitarian aid.

Tens of thousands of Syrians have fled a government offensive in the country's south that started on June 19 and some have set up makeshift camps near the Israeli-held Golan Heights.

"Regarding southern Syria, we will continue to defend our borders," Netanyahu said at the start of a cabinet meeting.

"We will extend humanitarian assistance to the extent of our abilities. We will not allow entry into our territory."

Separately, Israel's military said Sunday it had sent reinforcements to the Golan out of precaution.

Israel has long had a programme in place providing humanitarian aid to Syrians across the fence in the Golan. It has also provided medical treatment to wounded Syrians.

On Friday, Israel's military said it had mounted a nighttime operation across the armistice line with Syria.

It said it delivered 300 tents and 13 tonnes of food, as well as medical equipment and clothing to four of the camps in the Syrian part of the Golan.

Since June 19, backed by its ally Russia, the Damascus regime has carried out a deadly bombing campaign in southern Syria as it pushes to retake the strategic area bordering Jordan and the Israeli-occupied Golan.
