Israël-correspondent Ties Brock:
“Israeli media does report this airstrike, but the government does not. It never really responds to this, while hundreds of such missile attacks have been carried out in recent years.
Those attacks target Iran-backed militias such as Hezbollah in Syria, according to Israel. They want to limit the presence of their nemesis in a neighboring country as much as possible. Israel is coordinating these airstrikes with Russia, which controls Syrian airspace. If Israel carries out an air strike, space is given for it.
This cooperation is cited as one of the reasons why Prime Minister Bennett is relatively silent about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He paid a visit to the Russian president on Saturday. He looks like wants to act as a mediator in the conflict.”
