Israel is attempting to “drag” Damascus into a confrontation through multiple provocations, a senior Syrian intelligence official, Hamza al-Mustafa, claimed on Saturday, Al Jazeera reported.
“Israel is miscalculating when it thinks it can impose facts on the ground,” he claimed. “We are not ashamed to say that we are not in a position of strength, especially after liberation, and we want to focus on rebuilding the country.
“We will not be a launching pad for threatening neighboring countries, but we will spare no means to confront and deter Israeli aggression.”

The comments came as the minister met with his Danish counterpart.
