Report: Russia Prevents Israeli Airstrikes in Syria
(Maariv) Yasser Okbi - Independent Arabia reported Friday that Moscow prevented three Israeli air strikes in Syria recently. A source claimed that during August, Moscow stopped an air strike on a Syrian outpost in Qasioun, where a S-300 missile battery is placed. Another air strike planned for a week later in the Quneitra area and a third one in Latakia were also blocked. According to a Russian source, President Putin told Prime Minister Netanyahu at their meeting on Thursday that Russia will not allow any damage to be done to the Syrian regime's army or any of the weapons being given to it.
