Italian Intelligence Offered Support to Assad on December 5 After Aleppo's Fall and Christian School Airstrike
Dec 14, 2024, 07:36 PM
Recent revelations indicate that Italian intelligence offered support to Bashar al-Assad's regime shortly after the fall of Aleppo to opposition forces. A cable dated December 5, sent from Hussam Luqa, the head of Syria's General Security Branch, detailed a phone conversation with Giovanni Cavarelli, the head of Italy's Foreign Intelligence Service (AISE), in which support was extended to Assad. This offer came just four days after a Russian airstrike targeted a Christian school in Aleppo, raising concerns about the implications of Italy's involvement amid ongoing violence in the region. The situation has drawn attention as Christian schools in Syria have been bombed by Syrian and Russian aircraft, highlighting the precarious conditions faced by civilians amidst the conflict.
