Russia Passing Intelligence on Israel to Syria and Hizbullah
[Reuters] Israel believes Russia passes intelligence it gathers about the Jewish state to Syria and indirectly to Hizbullah, IDF Col. Ram Dor, chief of information security, told Yediot Ahronot on Friday. Describing Russian spy ships that dock in Syria and Russian personnel who man electronic eavesdropping stations in the Golan Heights, he said, "My assessment is that their facilities cover most of the State of Israel's territory." "The Syrians share the intelligence that they gather with Hizbullah, and the other way around. This we know, because we know how to build a mirror-image that shows us what enemy intelligence knows about us," Dor said. "So if the Russians help the Syrians get information, and the Syrians constantly pass it on to Hizbullah, it is a reasonable supposition that the information gathered by the Russians also reaches Hizbullah's hands."
