Charges UK Aids Syria Rebels Via Cyprus

syriaThe Sunday Times has reported that Syrian rebels fighting the government have been aided by United Kingdom bases in Cyprus.
“British intelligence is observing things closely from Cyprus,” the paper said. “It’s very useful because they find out a great deal”, a Syrian opposition official said.
“The British are giving the information to the Turks and the Americans and we are getting it from the Turks, ” the official concluded.
U.S. President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron have discussed the situation by phone and reportedly said British bases on Cyprus could be used to fly fighters to Syria to attack government positions in the wake of reports that chemical weapons had been used to kill hundreds of civilians.
The Cypriot Defence Minister denied knowing anything about the report.
