A Syrian official source categorically denied claims made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Syria made a request to the occupation entity for relief assistance after the earthquake.

The official source added that if Netanyahu had received such a request, it was certainly from his allies and friends in ISIS, Jabhat Al-Nusra, and other terrorist organizations, saying, "The occupation entity is the cause of woes, wars, and tensions in the region, and it is the last one who has the right to talk about providing aid and assistance."

Earlier today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that he had agreed to a request from Damascus to send aid to Syria after the devastating earthquake that struck it.

On Monday, a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine, killing thousands, mainly in Turkey and Syria, and leveling houses and other facilities, including public infrastructure.

"It is disgraceful that Netanyahu exploits the catastrophe of the earthquake that struck Syria to mislead the public opinion and cover up the expansionist and savage policies of the occupation," he added.

Syrian sources also denied to Al-Watan Syrian newspaper the allegations of Israeli officials regarding a request submitted by Syria to the Israeli entity for relief aid.

furthermore, the sources confirmed to the newspaper that everything published in the Israeli media "is not more than a propaganda campaign for its Prime Minister."

The sources asked, "How can Syria ask for help from an entity that killed and participated in killing Syrians over the past decades?"
