A senior Israeli source told Saudi TV channel "Al-Hadath" that "we have warnings regarding groups affiliated with Iran that intend to attack Israel from southern Syria." According to the source, Israel is "negotiating with the Syrian government to disarm southern Syria. We will not accept harm to the Druze. Talk of an Israeli invasion of southern Syria is false - we do not interfere in Syrian affairs." He added that "negotiations in Paris with Syria were positive and meetings continue in several capitals."
