Syria UN Envoy: «Israel» Supporting Daesh by Bombing Gov’t Sites

Local Editor

Syria's envoy to the UN had accused the apartheid "Israeli" entity of helping the Wahhabi Daesh [Arabic acronym for "ISIS" / "ISIL"] terrorist group by bombing government sites in the war-torn country.

Bashar al-Jaafari accused the "Israeli" regime of "adding fuel to the fire". The comments were made at a UN Security Council meeting about the conflict in Syria.

Jaafari said, the Jerusalem Post reported: "The direct ‘Israeli' support to ‘ISIL', through attacking Syrian Army sites in Palmyra city on March 17, 2017, added fuel to the fire and made things worse."

He also said that the "Israeli" entity had treated injured al-Qaeda terrorists.

According to Jaafari, the US was complicit in aiding the Wahhabi Daesh [Arabic acronym for "ISIS" / "ISISL"] terror group and other militants fighting the Syria government. "[It was] the same scene on April 7, 2017, when the US administration and its allies felt that the terrorist groups began to retreat," he said.

He went on to say: "So they committed their flagrant aggression against Shayrat Air Base under pretexts of [Syria] using chemical weapons in the terrorist- held town of Khan Sheikhoun."

Jaafari said the US "fabricated" events to justify attacking the airbase, and that its real purpose was to "rescue armed terrorist groups." He charged the US with moving from "proxy aggression" to direct military action.

The Syrian envoy accused Washington, France, the UK, the "Israeli" entity, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and Jordan, of provided rebel groups linked to al-Qaeda - such as the Nusra Front - with chemical weapons for use against Syria, then claiming Syria used them.

"This serious aggression had been plotted long in advance inside the secret rooms of intelligence agencies of Tel Aviv, Riyadh, Doha, Ankara, Amman, Washington, London and Paris," Jaafari said.

In the March attack referred to, Syria said a government military site was attacked, while the entity claimed it was targeting a shipment of weapons being delivered into Lebanon.

Syria opened fire on "Israeli" planes, prompting "Israeli" war minister Avigdor Liberman to warn it that it would destroy Syrian air defense systems if it happened again.

The UN envoy also said that the US was helping militant groups, including Daesh, to fight the Syrian government.

It branded a US missile attack last week on the Shayrat Air Base as "flagrant aggression".
