In the course of operations in southern Syria "Russian air force planes occasionally cross into Israeli airspace," he noted, adding that due to "the excellent defense cooperation" reached between Netanyahu and Putin, Israeli and Russian forces were aware of "clear boundaries" and had strong mechanisms in place to ensure that no deadly misunderstanding ensue.
The military cooperation is mutually-beneficial, he explained.
"According to the understandings reached with the Russians, the (Israeli) air force retains the freedom to operate in order to prevent the transfer of weapons which originate from Iran into the hands of Hezbollah."
He also noted that Syria had essentially ceased to exist as a state, which the Assad regime controlling only around a quarter of the country.

Slutsatser:
-Israel verkar vara inne i en riktig mysfas med Ryssland. Undrar vad Iran tycker om det här när de är med och satsar i Syrien? Det måste ju vara uppenbart för dem att ryssarna bara ser Hisbollah och Iran som nyttiga markverktyg som kommer överges när de inte behövs längre?
-Israel ogillar uppenbarligen den turkiska regeringen starkt.
-Syrien död stat = ingen kommer kunna kräva tillbaka Golan.
