DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. August 25, 2017, 4:54 PM (IDT)
The Islamic State launched an attack Friday on Syrian government forces in the Syrian Desert east of Homs. DEBKA reports: Iraqi troops crossed the border to help the Syrian army ward of the attack. This was the first time the two armies had joined forces to repulse the Islamists.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
