"Our air defense forces shot down an Israeli war plane and four missiles before they reached the targets," a Syrian security source was quoted as saying by Russia's RIA news agency on Thursday night. The source said that all of the missiles aimed at the town of Kiswah, south of the capital Damascus, were shot down before landing on their targets. Other sources reported that objects had fallen from the sky near Harfa village, but it was not clear if it was an intercepted missile or debris from an interceptor missile. However, speaking to Reuters, an Israeli military spokesman rejected the RIA report as "bogus." Israeli media claimed that Iranian military advisors as well as fighters from Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah were the main target in the attack. Hezbollah, which has been working closely with Iran to purge foreign-backed terrorists from Syrian cities, has reportedly established a communications and logistics hub for operations in southern Syria near the Israeli border at the Golan Heights, two senior regional intelligence sources told Reuters. Israel claims that Irans presence in Syria as part of an advisory mission requested by Damascus poses a threat to the regimes security. Using this pretext, Tel Aviv has struck alleged positions of Iranian and Iran-backed forces across Syria over the course of the seven-year conflict. The attacks are usually viewed as attempts to prop up terrorist groups that have been suffering defeats at the hands of Syrian government forces. Israel and the US have even put pressure on Russia, another close ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the war against terrorist groups, to chase Iran out of Syria. PressTV-Irans presence in Syria none of Israels business: Russia Russia says Irans presence in Syria is at the official request of the Syrian government and other parties are not in a position to interfere with this issue. In October, Moscow equipped Damascus with the advanced S-300 surface-to-air missiles, days after Israeli fighter jets attacking Syrian targets used a Russian surveillance plane flying nearby as a shield and misled the Syrian air defenses to shoot it down. Since then Israel has been very careful with its operation over Syria. It is not yet clear whether the S-300s were among the air defense systems used in the Thursday night counterattacks.

The funny thing is the I.D.F. denied they lost a Jet, but when questioned about their role in this attack they "Refused to Comment", just like they did when Israel lost a Submarine with many sailors on it off the coast of Syria, LOL, Israel always hides or downplays its losses, well known fact. Syria wisely won''t show the wreckage either, or even an Israeli Pilot they may have caught, which has happened before and Israel denied it, Syria will be quiet knowing Israel will strike again and they can shoot down another Israel Jet LOOLLL TAXCOLLECTOR2017... This confirms that the F35 is as vulnerable as we said it is. It is much easier to track than they thought as well. The speeds on the radar as much faster. The F35 is a failure. I hope they keep buying them, it's fun to watch them go down. Amira Ishtar... CNN gives these Jews and their leader, war criminal Netanyahu 24h coverage on their victim mentality, while they´ve killed prophets, children, women, men, animals, and destroyed everything, from stones to houses. throughout their long history. The Eternal victims. They wonder why antisemtism is rising? Its because of their beliefs and deeds. This general, worldwide hatred for them will exist till last day of this world. Righteous Jews certainly exist,, but they constitute a minority! Tatarewicz... Righteous Jew is an oxymoron. With the criminality that Judaism sanctions it's like saying righteous members of the Mafia. Righteous Khazars adopted saner religions/superstitions. Bond, James.... Syria probably shot down all Israeli jets, but the Jewish media in US and around the world will never admit it. Time for Syria to attack Israel with missiles and jets P3> NoName... The ultimate Zionazi ragsheet http://Debka.com reports that Israel has attacked and destroyed multiple Syrian targets in several waves of attacks and had no losses. 14 Stars... Beautiful Syrian defence system all Israeli missiles intercepted and Israeli warplane F35 was shot down by Syrian S300. Well done. Keep up the good work. Gaza and West bank has to initiate these defence systems and repel the attacks from the aparthied Israeli F35. Z Aquarius... I hope that Israel continues to try and fly in Syria. It appears to be a one way trip. When the time is right, the Allied Syrian Forces will move into the Golan and then Israel bringing an end to Zionist terrorism in that part of the region.
