Israeli forces struck targets near the Lebanon-Syria border on Wednesday, foreign media reported.
The Al-Mayadeen channel, closely associated with the Assad regime, reported the attack targeted a security facility in an industrial zone in a Homs suburb. They also reported Syrian forces responded with surface-to-air missiles.
The Lebanese Anshara website reported huge explosions near the villages of al-Eyn-al-Jedida, located in the eastern mountain range on the Lebanon-Syria border. Local residents reported Israeli jets circling the area prior to the explosion......

I have waited patiently. Mr. Truck has not put up, so I’ll just have to assume that he is both a liar and a troll, and hope that he is shortly zotted.

Anyone with a room temperature IQ and a search engine can find plenty of evidence of Israel and ISIS cooperating.
Apparently you don't qualify so here you go Avi.

Just protecting their ISIS army. So sad. Hopefully Assad kills every last ISIS asshole.

But apparently allowed ISIS camp out near the Golan Heights for years...go figure.
It didn't actually. The border was mostly controlled by Druze loyal to the Assad regime.

Israel took in injured civilians, most of whom were Druze. Did this include some US-allied Islamists and ISIS members, who ditched their guns and pretended to be ISIS? Yes, but that isn’t direct aid. Sorry for your need to use KGB and Iranian propoganda. In the real world, ISIS has attacked Israel

ISIS has attacked Israel. Israel actually deployed forces to protect Jordan from ISIS.
Iran is a developing nukes to destroy America. I appreciate your treasonous support for Iran, but in the real world, one can have enemies on multiple sides.

Since when does "anti-Israel" automatically equal "anti-Semitism?" Is Judaism Israel, and Israel Judaism? Nobody would say that being anti-Ireland it equivalent to being Anti-Catholic, or that being anti-Russia equals anti-Orthodoxy.
Since when does anti-French conspiracy theories become anti-Gallic. Your logic fails when applied to anyone else. No one may Spirodon post protocols lunacy and forget the existence of every other lobby in America or the fact that the Obama regime protected Iran's nuclear weapons program and tried to end the peace between Israel and Egypt.

Did your KGB masters prevent you from looking at Israelis bacing Russia against the Ukranians, especially the Galician fascists or did you intuitively bellythink the propaganda and consider such facts to be false, because they go against your party line?

ISIS is a cancer. So are people who spread KGB and Iranian disinformation. In the real world, ISIS affiliates in the Sinai have been attacking Israel.

IMO, the useful idiots for the apocalyptic mullahs on this thread do so not out any love for or loyalty to Iran or Russia, but only out of reflexive hatred of Israel. Their souls are rotten to the core.

Your link didn’t work. My name is not Avi. But I did my own searching, and here’s what i found.
Israel acknowledges it is helping Syrian rebel fighters
https://www.timesofisrael.com/yaalon-syrian-rebels-keeping-druze-safe-in-exchange-for-israeli-aid/
Medical aid, given conditionally, and not just to ISIS.
Specifically:
.....
Weve assisted them under two conditions, Yaalon said of the Israeli medical aid to the Syrian rebels, some of whom are presumably fighting with al-Qaeda affiliate al-Nusra Front to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad. That they dont get too close to the border, and that they dont touch the Druze.
The Druze on Israels side of the Golan, Yaalon charged, acted irresponsibly last week by attacking an Israeli ambulance carrying wounded Syrian rebel fighters. One person was killed and another wounded during what Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu termed a lynching. The person in the Israeli ambulance was not affiliated with the al-Nusra Front, and his death would provoke calls for revenge, Yaalon asserted.
Israel has treated over 1,000 wounded Syrians in its hospitals since the onset of the civil war in 2011.
Israel will continue to act with sensitivity regarding the Druze, Yaalon said. On the other side the rebels on the other side feel that were acting sensitively, he said.”
.....
That is something else entirely from what you allege. I stand by my previous statement. Liar. Troll.
