so, Israeli side provided the Russian colleagues an extensive report, which contains data, one way or another connected with the tragedy with the IL-20 RF FSI in Syria. Recall, that as a result of erroneous pin S-200 killed 15 Russian troops.
The Israeli delegation, headed by the commander of air force Major General Amikamom Norkina handed a 40-page document detailing the Israeli interpretation of, What happened in the airspace of Syria - the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea.
The document, states, Israeli F-16s struck "two wave" of attacks on targets in the SAR group "Hezbollah" about 22:00. After this quartet of fighters headed for home airfield. Further calculations defense CAP "opened fire indiscriminately, lasted more 40 minutes ". At the same time the fire was conducted in three directions: in the direction of the borders of Lebanon (southwards), to the east - inland Syria, to the west - in the direction of the Mediterranean Sea. is approved, that a total of a few tens of missile was released, one of which hit the Russian aircraft electronic intelligence.
Against this backdrop, Israel says, that Russia was allegedly warned about Air Force operations are not a minute before the deaths of servicemen on board the Il-20, and earlier. An Israeli military correspondent Ron Ben-Yishai announced, that the Russian accusations against Israel "is trying to distract the public from their own erroneous orders and the lack of effective coordination with the CAA". Next, Ben-Yishai actually contradicts himself.
he says, that at the beginning of the Israeli operation a Russian Il-20 was located to the east of the province of Latakia, and then, after the first F-16 strikes on objects "Hizb'Allah", It was sent to the square of the Mediterranean Sea, as in the Russian VKS “considered, that the attack was on board the French frigate Auvergne”. What a contradiction? And in that, that if Israel were warned in advance of the beginning of its Russian operations, then VCS RF would not build (at least, as referred to in Israel) dohadok on the subject, from Syria to fly on a rocket. The very statement, that after the attacks the Russian military did not know, who are coming from a blow to the territory of the CAP, looks, to put it mildly, doubtfully.
meanwhile, Israeli experts agree, that the document provided by Russia may be at least 40-, at least 400-page, but Russia may soon take steps to reduce the possibility of Israel to cause air strikes on Syria.
