The conversation between the two comes after unidentified aircraft were reportedly attacked by Shiite militias in Iraq and Hezbollah in eastern Syria, near the Iraq border. The Syrian human rights organization reported that at least five militants from the militia were severely killed in the al-Bukhmal area.
Yesterday, Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi pledged that the IDF "would not allow Iran to establish itself in Iraq." He said that "all the arenas that surround us in the first cycle of activity were many years in which Syria was frozen. It did not employ us. There were many years that Gaza did not employ us and Lebanon as well. Today all the arenas are active." He added that "In recent months there has not been an arena that did not have at least two alerts. Not only are all arenas active, arenas have been added as well. Iraq and Quds forces operating there, when they are insignificant. The IDF is advancing and moving there on a monthly basis, we cannot allow the situation It will pass without treatment. "He says," If I have to mark the scene, I would say - more arenas with more enemies. "
During the conversation, Prime Minister Putin once again made his request for the release of Naama Issachar. The Israeli young woman's appeal was dismissed in court this week, after being sentenced to 7.5 years in prison for several grams of cannabis found in her case while staying at the Moscow airport.
