Presidential Envoy for Syria Alexander Lavrentiev said on November 23, 2022 that the Russian government firmly opposes Israeli airstrikes on Syrian soil. According to TAAS , Lavrentiev then called on Israel to cease these airstrikes.
The Russian envoy gave a speech following the 19th Doctor: if You Have Toenail Fungus, Do This Immediately (Genius!) international meeting on Syria in the Astana format.
“As for Israeli airstrikes, we are strongly against such actions by the Israelis, even though they still say that this is their legal right. But we see that people are dying, not just infrastructure and arsenal being destroyed, and all this is happening on the territory of a sovereign state. Such actions, of course, are illegal, and do not comply with any international norms and laws. We are not only calling, we are demanding that Israel should stop these airstrikes and we will continue to do so,” he stated.
Lavrentiev lamented that Israel still is ignoring Russia on this matter.
“I think that this position on the part of the Israeli government requires adjustment,” the envoy emphasized.
Russia first intervened in Syria back in 2015 , in an effort to prop up the embattled government of Bashar al-Assad. Other countries like Iran have also used its proxies to not only prop up the Assad government but also expand its influence in Syria.
This has alarmed Israel, which treats Iran as an existential threat and will not tolerate any of its proxy forces close to its border. As a result, Israel has launched airstrikes into Syria targeting these Iranian-backed militias.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
