Video
footage surfaced last week showing the Israel Defense Forces (IDF)
treating a wounded anti-Assad Syrian rebel, following a UN report at the
end of last year which found that the IDF and the Syrian rebels
(including ISIS) were in regular contact. The Times of Israel reported on this latest video in an article titled,IDF posts footage of medics saving Syrian rebel in Golan:
“The
IDF on Saturday released rare footage of its medics performing a
life-saving procedure on one of the most severely wounded Syrian
combatants medical personnel have encountered in the Golan Heights… The
man, a Syrian rebel who belongs to an unnamed organization fighting
against the Assad regime and its allies, received treatment at the
border and then inside Israel, and was ultimately able to return to
Syria… Since the start of the civil war in 2011, the IDF has treated an
estimated 1,600 non-combatants and anti-Assad rebels… Although Israel’s
treatment of militants from Syria — many of whom are believed to belong
to Islamist organizations such as the al-Qaeda affiliated Nusra Front —
may seem bizarre given the animosity these types of groups have
expressed for the Jewish state in the past, Israel has approached the
issue from a humanitarian point of view.”
