Netanyahu: Israel Seeking to Expand Medical Assistance to Syrian Civilians
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - Israel is exploring ways to expand the medical assistance given to civilian casualties in Syria, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the foreign press on Tuesday. "We are prepared to take in wounded women and children, and also men if they are not combatants. [We are looking into ways to] bring them to Israel, take care of them in our hospitals as we have done with thousands of Syrian civilians." Up until now, he pointed out, most of the Syrians treated in Israel were from regions close to the Golan border. Transferring the wounded from Aleppo is a much more complicated logistical issue, he said.
