Is not "implausible and extremely complex" since you don't need to "hide" behind an aircraft. You just take advantage of its very presence as a deterrent against the (legitimate, in this case) use of air defence systems. Who wasn't supposed to be there was 🇮🇱 , not 🇸🇾 . The Aviationist @TheAviationist · Feb 7 it's implausible because they don't even need to enter the Syrian airspace, considered the use of stand-off munitions.

​In January, Israeli planes also carried out an attack on the T-4 airbase in Syria's Homs Governorate.

Syria has been embroiled in a devastating civil war since 2011, with government forces fighting against numerous opposition groups as well as militant and terrorist organizations, Sputnik reported.
