Syria: Israel frees two Syrian prisoners after Moscow’s mediation
Footage released on Sunday, shows two Syrians arriving at the Quneitra crossing after they were released by Israel following Russia’s intervention.
Zidan al-Tawil and Ahmad Khamis were seen getting out of an ambulance at the crossing in the Syrian Golan Heights. Khamis later pushed the wheelchair-bound al-Tawil away.
The release reportedly came after Moscow helped Damascus repatriate the remains and personal affairs of Zachary Baumel, an Israeli soldier killed during the 1982 war in Lebanon.
