A Wadi Ara family, whose son supposedly crossed the border into Syria to fight alongside rebels, has received word Tuesday that he was killed in battles against the Syrian regime.
Mouid Jumaa, in his 20s, flew abroad with two friends some three weeks ago and since then has been unreachable.

On Tuesday the family received a picture of a bullet ridden body which they identified as their son. The family believes the two other young men are in Syria.
„We never thought he’d think of entering Syria to fight alongside the rebels against Assad,” a family member of Jumaa told Ynet. I hope the two others who are missing will go back to their families safe and sound.”
So far, it is estimated that some ten Israeli Arabs have crossed the border into Syria in order to fight alongside the rebels against Bashar Assad‘s regime.
