An Israeli general has claimed that it was the ISIS that fired two rockets into the occupied Palestinian territories on Wednesday, saying it was an attempt by the terrorist group to draw the Tel Aviv regime into the conflict in Syria.

“I actually think ISIS] did want to harm us,” said Amos Yadlin, a former Israeli army general, adding, “What ISIS] wanted was apparently to cause some kind of confrontation between us and the Syrians, who are putting immense pressure on them...”

Yadlin added that ISIS was taking advantage of recent attacks by Israel against the Syrian government positions and was trying to help escalate the situation between Israel and Syria. He said such an escalation could undermine Syria’s advances against the terrorists and help ISIS remain longer in south and east of Syria.
