Russia's deployment of the S-300 in Syria & its implications for Israel
Russia is delivering to the Syrian military three battalion sets of its advanced S-300PM surface-to-air missile systems. The move comes as a response to the Syrian accidental shooting of a Russia Il-20 spy plane on the 17th of September, for which the Russian Defense Ministry has blamed Israel.
To discuss the challenges the deployment of these systems pose to the Jewish state, I'm joined here in the studio with; Lt. Col. Res. Reuven Ben Shalom, Cross-cultural strategist and columnist at the Jerusalem Post and Mr. Gideon Remez, research fellow, Truman Institute, Hebrew University.
