Israeli helicopters have transported for treatment to the occupied territories six injured members of terrorist groups operating against the government in Syria, a report says.

The official Syrian news agency, SANA, quoted Israeli media on Friday that the helicopters transported the wounded the day before.

One of the injured militants was taken to a hospital in the city of Safed and the other five were transported to a medical center in Haifa.

The news comes as no surprise given the fact that the Tel Aviv regime has a long history in supporting militant groups against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad over the past more than four years of turmoil in the Arab country.

Reports say Israel has set up field hospitals near the border with Syria to treat the injured militants coming in from battlefield.

The file photo shows Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shaking hands with a militant in an Israeli field hospital in Syria’s occupied Golan Heights.

 

The Israeli-occupied Syrian territory of the Golan Heights has hosted the field hospitals for the treatment of the wounded militants. In June, locals in the Golan intercepted an Israeli vehicle transporting two members of the al-Nusra Front terrorist group on the road between al-Sheikh Mountain and the village of Majdal Shams.

Ehud Yaari, an Israeli political commentator, said in October 2014 that the Tel Aviv regime has provided medical treatment for over 1,400 militants wounded in the operations against the government in Syria.
