TEL AVIV – The Syrian government will soon declare it is opening its borders with Israel for Palestinian and other jihad groups to carry out attacks against the Jewish state, a senior Syrian official told WND.
Separately, informed Middle Eastern security officials said the Syrian army held a meeting Sunday afternoon with the leaders of the military wing of the Iranian-backed Islamic Jihad terrorist group to discuss retaliation against Israel for the recent air strikes near Damascus.
According to those officials, Islamic Jihad and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah are coordinating a possible reaction to Israel's reported strikes.
Meanwhile, Iran has instructed the Al Quds unit of the Revolutionary Guard to prepare a response to Israel's reported airstrikes Sunday and Friday against Syrian targets, according to informed Middle Eastern security officials.
The officials, speaking to WND, said Syria and Iran are determined to respond to the Israeli strikes. The officials said the retaliation may not be launched from Syrian territory but instead could come in the form of a terrorist attack against Israelis in Africa or South America.
Large explosions rocked Damascus early Sunday with Syria blaming Israel for the strikes, which reportedly targeted a military research center in Jamraya near Damascus.
Israel's Sunday airstrike in Syria was coordinated with Turkey, which in turn coordinated rebel attacks throughout Syria timed to coincide with the Israeli strike, according to Egyptian and Jordanian intelligence sources speaking to WND.
The sources said the rebels did not know about the Israeli strike in advance, but instead were given specific instructions for when to begin today's major assaults against the regime of President Bashar al-Assad.
