IDF: Clash with Terrorists in Syria Not Part of Larger ISIS Push
(Times of Israel) Judah Ari Gross - IDF spokesperson Brig.-Gen. Moti Almoz confirmed on Monday that the army believes Sunday's clash between Israeli troops and an Islamic State-affiliate in Syria was not part of a larger push by the Sunni terror group. "We do not see any change with IS or any other faction in Syria," he told the Saudi-owned, London-based Elaph. Almoz added that Tehran has not become more moderate following the nuclear deal. "Iran has not changed....Its objective remains the same, which is to maintain a foothold in the region and keep the fire of terrorism burning."
