Media advisor of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Bouthaina Shaaban, said Monday that Damascus has obtained information about Zionist undercover of gunmen in Syria, adding that even Zionist officers are supervising the battles on Syrian ground.

Speaking to Al-Mayadeen TV, Shaaban expressed beliefs that the Zionist entity is using weapon convoys as an excuse to strike over Syrian and Lebanese territories.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad himself also told an Argentinean newspaper a few months ago that the so-called 'Israel' is assisting the militants fighting in Syria.

“Israel is directly supporting the terrorist groups in two ways,” he stated.

“Firstly it gives them logistical support, and it also tells them what sites to attack and how to attack them," Assad said.
