true or fake news? does it matter?

Syria and Russia are now denying it but earlier today PM Netanyahu announced that Israel would send humanitarian aid to Syria as well to help with the fallout from the earthquake. The request had supposedly been made by Russia on behalf of Syria, and not by Syria itself.

First Syria denied it, and then Russia denied it as well, though Israel is still insisting it is true.

Not having any way of knowing whom to believe, all I can say is I would completely understand why Russia and Syria must deny it.  Not that that tells us much. 

I would like to think that stepping up during such a time of crisis, even for an enemy, is a good thing and something that can perhaps effect a thawing of bad relations later when the crisis dies down. I dont know if it is true or fake news, but I can hope it is true and that something good will come out of it.
