Netanyahu: We won’t accept ‘restrictions’ on our Syria activity

Netanyahu says Israel will not accept any limitation on its activities in Syria and will continue to defend its citizens, ahead of a visit to the Munich Security Conference, where he is due to speak.

“We will defend ourselves, of our own power, with no restriction,” he says at the Ben Gurion Airport before boarding his plane, in an apparent reference to concerns that Russia may curb Israel’s freedom of operation in Syria.

The prime minister says he will present information showing Iran’s involvement in the last weekend’s clashes, in which Israel downed a drone said to be sent by Tehran and struck multiple Iranian targets in Syria.
