Israel Seeing Little Action in Russia’s Move to Curb Syria Strikes Russia bolsters Syrian air defense, but has yet to take direct action
Recent reports that Russia is fed up with Israel’s ever-escalating airstrikes against Syria led to a lot of speculation on what they would do to curb the strikes. Russia has bolstered Syria’s air defenses, as reported, but so far Israeli media is reporting that Russia hasn’t done much else.
This is leading to speculation in the Israeli press that Russia wasn’t really serious about this, and was just trying to get progress with an empty warning. This has been a long-standing issue for Russia, however, and with Israel’s attacks in Syria growing, it seems unlikely that Russia is not taking the matter seriously.
Tuesday’s report of a deal to end the siege in Syria’s Daraa al-Balad appear to have been premature, with the deal falling apart Wednesday and the Syrian military storming the city.
The deal that was meant to be in place saw the Syrian forces ending the siege in return for the Free Syrian Army (FSA) rebels handing over all light arms. Pro-government militias would also be disarmed in the area.
All that might’ve worked, but the FSA turned in 60 pieces of damaged weaponry instead of thousands of guns. Locals are openly saying they didn’t believe the military wanted to stop the fight, so they refused to disarm.
