US Secretary of State John Kerry spoke today with Prime Minister Netanyahu on the phone and according to Channel 10, told him that the US shares Israel’s concerns regarding the increased Russian involvement in Syria.

Kerry’s talk with Netanyahu occurred shortly after the Prime Minister’s Office announced that Netanyahu will travel to Russia next week to meet with President Vladimir Putin.

The Russian military’s increasing presence in Syria is supposed to be at the top of the agenda during Netanyahu’s meeting with Putin.
