Israel claims to have contacted Russia when attacking Syria
The Israeli military has opened communication lines with its Russian colleagues while conducting nighttime airstrikes in Syria, military press service spokesman Jonathan Konricus said.
"The deconfliction mechanism is still active and used by both sides. It was also activated as usual last night," Jonathan Konricus told reporters.
Last night, Israel carried out airstrikes against several Iranian military targets in the neighboring country, and also attacked Syrian air defense facilities, which, according to Tel Aviv, fired "dozens of missiles" at the aircraft participating in the operation.
