Syria: Islamic jihadists using UN cars for jihad terror operations
“Syrian al-Qaeda using UN cars to conduct terror operations,” by Roi Kais, Ynet News, December 11, 2014:
Syrian opposition sources say al-Qaeda-linked Syrian rebels, known as the Al-Nusra Front, have taken over areas along the Israeli-Syrian border and have recently been spotted using UN cars to conduct terror operations.
According to the sources, the Al-Nusra Front has seized large swaths of the southern Golan Heights and has used UN cars during attacks against Assad’s army near the city of Daraa in southwestern Syria – a worrying sign of the capabilities of the Syrian al-Qaeda branch.
The Syrian opposition sources claimed the use of the UN vehicles was part of a double car explosion attack. The terrorist behind the attack, Abu Khattab al-Muhajir, was able to exit the vehicle before it exploded.
The UN car was the second of the two vehicles to explode and led to the deaths of two of Assad’s men who were not killed from the first explosion.
The al-Nusra Front uploaded photos documenting the attack to their Twitter account on Wednesday. The photos depict the major-general of the group, Abu G’libib, wiring the explosives himself.
The photographs depicting the usage of the UN car were also aired by state television of the Assad regime.
The UN responded to the attack and said, “using UN equipment by Jabhat al-Nusra to carry out terrorist acts is unacceptable.”…Yeah. Time for you guys to issue another condemnation of Israel.
