Military Pressure on Iran in Syria Is Working

Amos Yadlin, executive director of Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies, said on Tuesday that "neither the Russians nor the Americans will get the Iranians out of Syria - the entire task falls on Israel's shoulders."

These red lines include the establishment of another Hizbullah on the Golan Heights, the scope and breadth of the Shiite militias [operating in Syria], and Iran's precision missile program."
