Israeli minister reportedly says it is time to assassinate Syria's Assad
An Israeli minister under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that, based on recent reports of new atrocities, it is time to "eliminate (President) Assad."
“The reality of the situation today in Syria, in which they are executing people, using chemical attacks against them, and the latest extreme measure -- burning their corpses, something which we haven’t seen in 70 years in this world -- we’re crossing a red line,” Housing and Construction Minister Yoav Gallant said Tuesday at a military conference, Bloomberg reported. “In my opinion, it’s time to eliminate Assad.”
Netanyahu’s office did not respond to Bloomberg for comment. Gallant reportedly made the remark a day after reports emerged about Assad’s regime possibly using a crematorium at a prison near Damascus as a venue for mass killings.
