In Israel, Doctors Quietly Treat Injured Syrians -
(Christian Science Monitor) Ben Lynfield - Over the past four months, Israeli doctors have treated about 100 Syrians. When Syrian patients first started coming to Ziv Hospital in Safed, they tended to be ''rebels who were involved in the war,'' said hospital director Oscar Embon. ''But now it's simple citizens. There are shellings of innocent civilians and a share of them seek care in Israel.'' Political analyst Yossi Alpher says, ''The idea is to do the minimum that human morality demands from us as neighbors, but not to be seen as the medical corps of the rebels.''
