Israel will provide Russia with intelligence information about opposition sites in Syria to facilitate Moscows military operations, Channel 2TV has reported. The Israeli network said that a senior delegation of Russian army officials will arrive in Israel on Tuesday to coordinate the military cooperation.
The delegation will be led by First Deputy Chief of General Staff General Nikolai Bogdanovsky, who will meet his Israeli counterpart, Major-General Yair Golan as well as senior officials in Israeli military intelligence, the air force and the Mossad. Channel 2 noted that the visit follows the meeting between Israels Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow three weeks ago.
According to the media report, Israel will submit more requests to the Russians in exchange for attractive offers to facilitate the Russian armys military operations in Syria. It also revealed that Netanyahu and Putin have agreed on several issue in principle, including a Russian pledge to stop the flow of weapons from Syria to Hezbollah, as well as to allow the Israeli air force to carry out operations freely in Syria, even in areas where the Russian army is stationed on the Syrian coast.
Senior officers in the Russian and Israeli air forces will discuss the mechanisms for the coordination of Israeli overflights of Syrian airspace to avoid any conflict with Russian aircraft on operations against opposition groups. Israel is likely to request Russia to coordinate its moves in the Mediterranean in a manner that does not affect Israeli submarines gathering intelligence about Lebanon and Syria.
Another report by Israel Radio on Sunday claimed that Tel Aviv will provide vital intelligence to the Russians in a bid to reduce Iranian influence in Syria.
Meanwhile, Israels former Foreign Minister, Tzipi Livni, has called for direct cooperation with Iran and Hezbollah in order to protect Israeli interests. Maariv newspaper quoted Livni as saying on Friday, Netanyahu must understand that the world looks at Iran and Hezbollah as legitimate partners in the confrontation against Daesh. She warned that Tel Avivs geostrategic position will be hurt if the Israeli leadership does not realise what must be done do to influence the shifts in the balance of power in Syria.
Uh oh. Someone’s going to get their panties in a wad...
This can’t be! Putin is trying to take over the Middle East according to a pack of newbs around here!
Good News. The truth is there is no “Syrian Opposition” except ISIS!! ( the remaining five got killed in an ISIS bombing run) I hope Israel is helping the Russians kill ISIS. WE should be helping the Russians kill ISIS!!
Yep... and according to Carly Fiorina (the lady with the mid evil history degree)
I find this to be funny as hell. In your face Barack!!!
That says it all.
They’re correct. Obammy the Sunni has been out foxed.
Can hardly wait for Obama’s response.
As an American Jew this is one headline I NEVER thought I’d see in my lifetime . . .
Yeah, liberal Jews in Obama’s Amerika!
The US will always matter
Sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse
Now is worse
This is all yet another Zionist plot. /sarc^2
Assad is the devil they know, and going back to his father’s time the devil they’ve known for fifty years. Meanwhile our Muslim Narcissist will be fuming like Hitler in the bunker. Mossad’s file on him must include the brand he smokes. They should send over a couple cartons and a lighter.
“Israel trust Putin more than Obama.
That says it all.”
I don’t blame Bibi for looking to Putin for help, because he knows that Obama has thrown him and Israel to the wolves.
