DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. March 19, 2017, 6:15 PM (IDT)
Syrian sources claimed Sunday that Israeli aircraft struck a vehicle on the highway to Damascus near the Golan town of Quneitra, killing the civilian driver. Social networks reported that an Israeli drone killed a member of the Syrian army’s Golan Liberation Brigades called Yasser a-Sayad. The IDF declined to comment on these reports. DEBKAfile’s military sources disclose that the victim appears to have escorted Hizballah forces in their push to the Golan – a military movement exclusively revealed first on this site on Saturday. Damascus and Hizballah have pledged in the last few days reprisal for every Israeli attack.
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.
