This is how Russia participated in the war between Hezbollah and Israel

The American newspaper “Newsweek” reported that “over the past year, and with the escalation of the Israeli land attack against Hezbollah along the Lebanese -Israeli border, a disturbing matter from the field has emerged: the huge presence of Russian -made weapons inside southern Lebanon. Israeli forces revealed homes in southern Lebanon that were converted into temporary weapons depots, full of advanced Russian weapons. Anti -tank, mortar and missiles are evidence of a pipeline that runs from Moscow through Damascus, and it is directly to the hands of Hezbollah. Old systems were found but still deadly, such as Vagot and Concorus, and even Siger missiles from the Soviet era.

According to the newspaper, “These discoveries are part of a wider reality, while Russia is fighting its own war in Ukraine, it continued to arm the enemies of Israel in secret. The alliance between Moscow and Tehran has grown significantly since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, not only at the diplomatic and economic level “Watch -136”, and in return, the Kremlin opened his weapons warehouses to the Islamic Republic and its agents. In fact, this growing axis is serious consequences for Israel, while most of the international community is still busy with the war in Europe, Russia’s role in arming the region cannot be separated from the broader peace issues in Ukraine.

The newspaper continued, “Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has spent the last months in Washington to compose this issue specifically: any agreement to end the war in Ukraine, especially any agreement that reduces sanctions on Russia, it must include provisions to reduce Russian military support to Iran and Hezbollah. For Israel, the risks cannot be greater. The Israeli army continues to fight regular skirmishes with Hezbollah fighters, It has resumed its operations against Hamas in Gaza, while its air forces are launching raids on targets inside Syria. Ballisti. ”

The newspaper added, “Israel’s approach to Russia has always been strategically cautious. Since the outbreak of the Ukraine war, Tel Aviv has declined to formally join Western sanctions or supply weapons to Kiev. This frequency stems from three main concerns: the need to continue to prevent military clash with the Russian forces in Syria, and the risk of public confrontation with Moscow to escalate its support for the opponents of Israel and the interest of The Jewish community, which is still residing in Russia. But with the deepening of Moscow’s partnership with Iran, Israeli accounts may need a change.

According to the newspaper, “For this reason, Israeli officials urge the Trump administration to take an additional step. If a wider ceasefire is approved in Ukraine, Russian behavior in the Middle East must be approved. Moscow’s sustainable peace in Europe should not be able to finance a war against Israel. Any agreement reduces sanctions or improves Russia’s global status must be accompanied by a stop to transfer weapons to Iran and Syria, A military cooperation that enhances Iran’s nuclear and missile programs.

The newspaper concluded, “The end of the war in Ukraine without addressing Russia’s tangles in the Middle East will be a strategic mistake, as Hezbollah allows the re -armament, Iran to advance, and Israel to stay stuck in the escalation cycle. Peace in the Middle East is not limited to ending one war, but to prevent the next war.”
