There are varying opinions but I tend to lean toward Russia seeing an opportunity and Iran so peeved over Syria that they join with Russia and swoop after Israel...and of course the “regulars”.

“..Iran so peeved over Syria that they join with Russia and swoop after Israel..”
Russia swoop after Israel? You made my day:-).Russia don’t have any serious problems with Israel but do fear Iran to some extend.” enemy of my enemy is my friend” doesn’t work in this case because Russians know very well that some day Iranians (not Israelis) may turn nukes against Russia.
