Netanyahu to Lavrov: S-300 delivery to Syria “irresponsible”

In interviews to US media, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu criticized Russia’s handover of advanced S-300 anti-aircraft systems to Syria as “irresponsible,” but said Israel was committed to continued deconfliction with Moscow in its military operations in the region. He was responding to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov’s announcement Friday that Russia has already handed over S-300 missile defense systems to Syria.
