Russia's allies in Syria began their own game
The contradictions between the allies of Damascus threaten to lead to another aggravation of the situation in Syria. Israel warned of its readiness to intensify the bombing of its border provinces of the SAR, where the pro-Iranian group Hezbollah strengthened. According to a number of Middle Eastern media, these airstrikes will no longer be coordinated with Russia.
The problem now is Iran and Hezbollah. What is this organization today?
Hezbollah is a Shiite-style militant movement created in Lebanon with the direct assistance of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). Its declared goal is to create a state in Lebanon on the model of Iran, therefore it enjoys the direct support of Tehran. Attitude to this structure differs in different countries of the world. In the West and in neighboring Israel, it is recognized as terrorist. Moscow does not consider Hezbollah to be such, despite the fact that in 1985 there was an extremely serious incident with Soviet diplomats.
Hezbollah is an impressive military force. In different periods, the number of its militants was estimated from 7 to 30 thousand. They possess combat technique, artillery, MLRS, anti-tank missile systems. After the start of the military campaign in Syria, Hezbollah took an active part in it on the side of official Damascus, however, justifying this by the need to protect the Lebanese living in the territory of the SAR. It is unreasonable to deny the Shiite contribution to the fact that the regime of President Bashar al-Assad has resisted. But the situation is gradually changing.
Most of the country has already been freed from militants who have gathered in northern Syria. Lebanese began to gain a foothold in the territories of the SAR occupied by them, which cannot but cause some concern in Damascus. Therefore, a prudent decision was made there to send the "dogs of war" to hell, where they can find the best application. However, this place was extremely ambiguous - the province of El Quneitra, on the eastern border of Israel, where Hezbollah took up what it was created for - preparing for a war with the Jewish state.
This naturally provoked a sharp reaction in Tel Aviv. Political analyst Oleg Gushchin explains:
Interestingly, they are trying to make Russia guilty in the beginning exacerbation. The logic is that the Kremlin is not in a position to control its Iranian and Syrian allies, and therefore, Israel will relieve itself of responsibility for the security of the Russians and will no longer coordinate with the Russian Ministry of Defense its airstrikes on the ATS. We will remind, earlier because of the actions of the Israeli Air Force, our IL-20 with all the military personnel on board had already died.

Hezbollah is a continuation of Iran. Therefore, everything that Tel Aviv does against Hezbollah, he does against Iran. The same is true and vice versa: if Hezbollah opposes Israel, it is the same as Iran.
