Russia and Israel establish Syria ‘hotline’

(JNS.org) The Russian military announced that it has established a “hotline” with Israel in order to avoid any inadvertent clashes in Syria. In a statement, the Russian military said that “mutual information-sharing on the actions of aircraft has been established through a hotline between the Russian aviation command center at the Hmeimim air base and a command post of the Israeli Air Force.” “The first stage of training was conducted yesterday on cooperation between Russian air forces and the Israeli Air Force to avoid dangerous incidents in the sky above the Syrian Arab Republic,” the statement added. News of Israeli-Russian cooperation on Syria comes as Russia disclosed last week that one of its fighter jets had come within a few miles of a U.S. aircraft over Syria last weekend.
