DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. April 15, 2016, 6:51 PM (IDT)
Syrian rebels have launched a large-scale attack in an attempt to uproot the Yarmouk Martyrs Brigade and the militias fighting alongside them from the triangular area where the Syrian, Jordanian and Israeli borders meet, a Kuwaiti newspaper said Friday. The brigade has sworn allegiance to ISIS, and according to DEBKAfile's counterterrorism sources it is now being commanded by ISIS officers who came to the area from the terrorist organization's de facto capital Raqqa.
The newspaper, Al Rai al Aam, also said that drones flying to southern Syria from Jordan to help the rebels in the battle are actually Israeli drones marked with the colors of the Jordanian air force.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
