Palestinian Authority: Zionist entity supporting terrorists in Syria

The Palestinian Authority has charged the illegal Zionist entity with supporting Takfiri terrorist groups in Syria after Tel Aviv threatened to directly intervene in the war following an elaborate attack on a Syrian Druze village.

According to Press TV, the Israeli military has threatened to launch an incursion into Syria “to protect” residents in Hader, which is populated by the Arab country’s Druze minority.

Earlier that day, at least nine people were killed and 23 others wounded in a car bombing by Nusra Front terrorists, which also involved an exchange of fire with government troops based in the village close to the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

After the attack, people in the Golan Heights held a protest to condemn what they called Israel’s support for anti-Damascus terrorists. Israeli forces were deployed to the area to disperse the protesters.

In a statement, the Palestinian Authority said Tel Aviv “tactically retreated” from its decision to “support the so-called Syrian opposition from occupying the Syrian Druze village of Hader.”

The statement said that Israel’s retreat came “under pressure from Druze reactions in Occupied Palestine” to “the suspicious relationship between the regime in Tel Aviv” with al-Qaeda and al-Nusra terrorists.

Israel, the ministry said, is providing al-Nusra with weapons, salaries, medical aid and intelligence to fight Syrian troops and keep them at bay from the territories under the occupation.
