A Syrian official ruled out that Syria would accept aid from its traditional Israeli foe. "How can Syria ask for help from an entity that has killed... Syrians for decades?" the official asked.
The official added that Syria didn't request help from Israel, in the first place.
Many countries, including Russia, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan and Qatar, have offered help for Syria and Turkey following the 7.8-magnitude devastating quake that left more than 2,000 people killed and thousands of others injured, or stuck under the rubble.
