Saudi Bandar Bin Sultan, Director General of the Saudi Intelligence Agency has commanded thousands of “militants” to prepare to attack the city of Saidnaya in Syria.
Several Wahhabi and al-Qaeda-linked groups, including the Ahrar al-Sham Brigade and the Free Syrian Army’s Tahrir al-Sham brigade, backed by al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front terrorists among others, have mobilized 3,000 armed men to storm the city of Saidnaya in the north of Damascus.
Saidnaya is located in the mountains and 27 kilometers (17 miles) north of the city of Damascus.
Saidnaya is famous for its ancient convents, especially the Convent of Our Lady of Saidnaya.
Before the breakout of the war in Syria, Saidnaya was one of the most important tourist destinations in Syria.
The Saudi Intelligence Agency had previously ordered different armed groups to attack Maaloula and East Ghouta in Rif Damascus.
Syrian Ambassador to Jordan Bahjat Suleiman has recently described the Saudi “Prince” as “the real gang leader of terrorists fighting in Syria.”
