    One of at least seven groups believed to have received weapons from Israel, Fursan al-Joulan, or ‘Knights of Golan,’ reportedly participated in the Israeli-led operation to evacuate hundreds of members of the controversial White Helmets group out of Syria. The group is also believed to have received upwards of $5,000 per month from Israel.

    The deleted report comes on the heels of another major disclosure: On Monday the IDF announced that Israel has carried out more than 200 strikes in Syria in the past year and half.

    The Israeli military usually declines to comment on missile strikes attributed to Israel, although Tel Aviv has repeatedly claimed that it has the right to attack Hezbollah and Iranian military targets inside Syria. Damascus has repeatedly claimed that Israel uses Hezbollah as a pretext to attack Syrian military formations and installations, accusing Tel Aviv of “directly supporting ISIS and other terror organizations.”

      “Israel stood by our side in a heroic way,” a spokesman for the rebel group #Fursan_al-Joulan, or Knights of the Golan, Moatasem al-Golani, told the Journal. “We wouldn’t have survived without Israel’s assistance.”

      Abu Suhayb, a nom de guerre of the commander who leads the group, told the newspaper he receives approximately $5,000 a month from Israel. According to the report, the group made contact with Israel in 2013 after a raid on regime forces and turned to Israel for help with its wounded. The group said it was a turning point as Israel then began sending funds and aid, assistance soon extended to other groups.

      In response to the Wall Street Journal report, the IDF said Israel was “committed to securing the borders of Israel and preventing the establishment of terror cells and hostile forces… in addition to providing humanitarian aid to the Syrians living in the area.”

    Israel has been regularly supplying Syrian rebels near its border with cash as well as food, fuel and medical supplies for years, a secret engagement in the enemy country’s civil war aimed at carving out a buffer zone populated by friendly forces.

    Péage pour la suite mais je pense que l’essentiel est là http://www.hispantv.com/noticias/siria/344907/israel-arma-terroristas-rebeldes-lucha-gobierno : El diario estadounidense The Wall Street Journal informó el domingo por la noche que Israel ha ofrecido a los grupos “rebeldes” ―considerados como terroristas por Damasco― suministros médicos, alimentos y fondos para “proteger sus fronteras de la crisis en Siria y establecer una zona de amortiguación en su frontera”.

    Según el informe, el régimen de Tel Aviv creó una unidad militar especial en 2012 para monitorear y coordinar la transferencia de la ayuda a los “rebeldes”, una estrategia que incluye pago de salarios y entrega de armas y municiones.

    Abu Suhayb, comandante del grupo terrorista Fursan al-Yulan, ha dicho al diario norteamericano que el régimen israelí les paga unos 5000 dólares al mes. Este grupo, conforme al reporte, contactó con Israel en 2013 cuando el Ejército sirio atacó a miembros de la banda terrorista en las zonas sureñas de Siria.

    Fursan al-Yulan tiene cerca de 400 combatientes en la provincia de Al-Quneitra, situada a 70 kilómetros de Damasco, la capital de Siria, y está aliado con al menos otros cuatro grupos terroristas que también reciben asistencia israelí, de acuerdo con declaraciones de miembros de bandas terroristas ofrecidos al diario.
