Netanyahu spoke about clashes with Russian fighters
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Russian fighters nearly shot down Israeli military aircraft near the borders of Syria. We are talking about serious clashes, some of which were previously voiced by unofficial sources, while, according to Netanyahu, it was possible to prevent a serious conflict only thanks to emergency contacts between the Israeli and Russian sides.
#Israeli PM Netanyahu on Army Radio: Putin told me without our relationship there could have been a military clash between the two countries. He said there were at least 4 cases when IAF jets almost collided with #Russian jets but were avoided due to the deconfliction mechanism

Most likely, we are talking about at least two incidents near the borders of Lebanon and Syria, as well as at least one incident in southern Syria, as previously reported by Avia.pro.
Experts, in turn, blame the clashes on the Israeli military, who violate agreements with Russia by conducting military operations in Syria.
The militants - "ultimatches" fell under the blow of the air forces
Terrorists threatening Russia with a 24-hour ultimatum were hit by an air strike from the Russian air forces. This is evidenced by the data of a number of sources, as well as video frames presented by the Telegram community of the Bulletin of Damascus.
According to the information at the disposal of the editorial office, the militants tried to get into the city of Maarat al-Nuuman from the western side, however, finding themselves in an open area, they instantly fell under an air strike by the Russian Aerospace Forces.
