Israeli journalist Amir Rappaport reports that Israel, in response to the sale of Russian air defense systems S-300 to Iran can begin delivery of modern weapons to Ukraine and Georgia. Both countries “are considered to be enemies of Russia.”
Despite the fact that Iran will not receive the latest version of this system, S-300 would be able to hit several targets simultaneously at a distance up to 150 km. This is – a big challenge for the Air Force of any country, including for the Israeli Air Force.
In the case of Ukraine, Israel could unfreeze the sale of modern reconnaissance drones. The contract for the supply of drones has been suspended at the request of the Israeli Foreign Ministry. For quite a time Foreign Ministry cares about “sensitive” relations with Russia. In the light of the Russian Foreign Ministry’s demarche this view may change and permit for the supply of weapons to Ukraine may be granted.
