Israel "will know what to do" if Russia delivers anti-aircraft missiles
to Syria, its defense minister said Tuesday, in an apparent allusion to
another air strike on the war-torn neighboring country.
"The deliveries have not taken place, and I hope they do not.
But if, by misfortune, they arrive in Syria, we will know what to do,"
Moshe Yaalon said.
His comments came after Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei
Ryabkov said providing the missiles to the regime of President Bashar
al-Assad would be a "stabilizing factor" aimed at deterring any foreign
intervention in Syria.
