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."
