Despite some tactical successes, Israel is failing to prevent Iranian entrenchment in Syria, Major General (res.) Amos Gilad said according to an Israeli newspaper.
"If we don't strike at Iran, it won't leave Syria," said Gilad.
"The latest Iranian [diplomatic] assaults against Israel raised the volatility of the region. Israel needs maximal freedom of action in Syria as part of an arrangement with Russia, and to strive for an achievement that would persuade Iran to withdraw," he added.
Noteworthy that Israel has recently conducted several airstrikes on Iranian targets in Syria, claiming that the targets were military depots belong to the Iranian militias and Revolutionary Guards.
