Letting this get into the press is a major blunder. I like the new Ukraine, but not enough to have missiles hitting Nahariya from Syria. Israel had to walk a tightrope with Russia on the other side of our border. I think we just fell off the tightrope.

Jpost should be renamed The Russian Post

Almost every article they publish has either the words Ukraine or Russia in the headline all while ignoring local Israel news or just publishing left wing drivel.

A terribly sad collapse to a once great paper

Once Iran got involved, is there really any surprise that Israel would too?

this conflict gives Israel a chance to examine in detail the downed Iranian drones ... drones that Iran might try to use on Israel some day

“In particular, Moscow has been using the Shahed-136 suicide drone.”

I wonder this article didn’t mention that this drone type is being mass produced in Russia (Geran-2).

The way the article is written misleads the reader into thinking all of this type are only made in and imported from Iran.

Intel Slava:

🇮🇷🇷🇺 Iran prepares transfer of Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar short-range ballistic missiles to Russia - Washington Post

These missiles are capable of hitting targets at a distance of 300 and 700 kilometers, respectively.

🇮🇷🇷🇺 Iranian sources report that Russia has ordered new Arash-2 UAVs from Iran. The warhead of the new drone is much larger than that of the Geran.

Russia will give information and support to Iran and Syria on Israel.
Everyone seems to want escalation.
Now China is getting aggressive on Taiwan as well.

Russia is day by day losing the capability to be relevant in Syria. Russia is seen to be weak in Ukraine and just ignorable bluster in Syria.

The Iranian surrogate Hezbollah seems to be more of an Israeli problem in Syria than a toothless Russia

For a nominal fee of say 1 Billion US dollars I’ll sell them some advanced Intel on those Iranian drones.

That intel not helping in the least bit.

Roughly around $50K suicide drones and drone swarm tactics are still taking out expensive tanks, mobile artillery and anti-aircraft assets, etc.
