Syrian group threatens attacks over Israel ties

The Islamic Resistance Front in Syria, an armed group, issued a statement vehemently condemning what it describes as 'treacherous negotiations' between the Damascus authorities and Israel. It accused the Syrian government of colluding with a 'Zionist-American plan' to protect Israel and attack the resistance, threatening that any security agreement with Israel will be met with force. The group also reaffirmed its support for Hezbollah as Lebanon's shield.
