Moscow has given the Russian Hmeimim air base in Latakia to Iran for supplying Hezbollah with weapons and ammunition, Israeli media reports.
The move has caused great anger in Israel as Russia protects with its anti-aircraft systems the air base and by extension the Iranian planes that land.
It is noteworthy that the transfer of weapons took place one day before the speech-declaration of the Secretary General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah. Yet another indication of imminent Hezbollah involvement.
At the same time, Syrian sources say thousands of Iranian-backed militias have arrived in southern Lebanon in the past week, while tens of thousands remain inside Syria near the border with Lebanon and the Golan Heights.
Syrian Sources are reporting that Thousands of Iranian-Backed Militia Members have arrived in Southern Lebanon over the last week and that Tens of Thousands are still Staging inside of Syria near the Border with Lebanon and the Golan Heights.
The Iranian Imam Hossein militia, originally stationed in Syria, was deployed to southern Lebanon in an attempt to support Hezbollah. The militia is involved in confrontations with the IDF and terrorist activities against Israel, putting the lives of the Lebanese people at…
According to the Israelis, a MahanAir Airbus A340-313 took off from Tehran's Mehrabed Airport and landed at the Russian Aerospace Forces' Hmeimim Air Base in Latakia, Syria.
The Israelis note that the Russian Air Force has sole control of the area as well as the port, which appears to provide a safe haven for Revolutionary Guards aiding Hezbollah.
The plane, according to Israeli information, was carrying about five tons of weapons.
"Compared to previous IRGC missions, this time the number of pallets loaded onto the plane was less, about half," said an Israeli source at Mehrabad airport.
Hezbollah's supply from Iran is under the protection of Russia, the Israelis say!
According to the same source, "the pallets arrived on the plane accompanied by guards." One hypothesis is that they included MANPADS anti-aircraft systems.
We recall that on October 21, Israel bombed the runways at Damascus and Aleppo airports in order to prevent further arms shipments via Mahan Air from Iran.
Earlier, Hezbollah stepped up its attacks on Israel by carrying out a combined rocket and drone kamikaze attack on Safed and other villages in northern Israel.
Reports indicate that Iranian kamikaze drones were used against the IDF Northern Command Headquarters while the naval base near Naqoura was also hit.
As WarNews247 previously reported, Hezbollah announced that it fired rockets, artillery shells, kamikaze drones and anti-tank missiles against at least 19 Israeli military positions/bases along the border with South Lebanon, including Al-Marj, Al-Malikiah, Jal Dwair , Ra's Al-Naqoura, Zar'it, Duhaira and Zibdin.
A large fire broke out in the area of Kiryat Shmona, a city in northern Israel as a result of these bombings.
Hezbollah has released Footage showing the Strike on the Zibdin Military Outpost by 2 “Kamikaze” Attack Drones earlier today in Northern Israel which they claimed caused Serious Casualties to Israeli Forces.
