Russia: Israel warned us about planned Syria strike 1 minute beforehand
None
The Russian Defense Ministry said on Tuesday that Israel warned it of an impending airstrike on the Syrian city of Latakia just one minute beforehand and deliberately created a “dangerous situation.”
The statements come a day after Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces accidentally shot down a Russian military aircraft on Monday evening following a missile strike on the Syrian coastal city of Latakia that was attributed to the Israel Air Force.
The Russian Defense Ministry also slammed Israel’s alleged attack as a “deliberate provocation” which put Russian aircraft in the path of Syrian air defense systems.
