Is Israel’s fate tied to Syria?

Syria has fallen, but we are still far from seeing the last of the hostages returned. Our brave soldiers must fight to secure Israel’s borders, rid the region of emboldened attackers all over the Middle East, and adapt to the escalating threats from Syria, but Israel doesn’t have enough supplies to properly win this war. Can you support our IDF sons and daughters as they continue fighting for the Survival of the Promised Land?.

Safa is the head of Hebollah’s Liaison and Coordination Unit

Israeli media also reported that Safa is the head of Hebollah’s Liaison and Coordination Unit.

Sky News Arabic reported on Thursday that Safa was “injured but still alive” according to a source in the security sector.
