The Wall Street Journal reported in a report that “Israel is secretly coordinating with the United States many of the air strikes it is carrying out in Syria, where allies are facing a battlefield filled with armed groups backed by Iran and foreign military forces,” they said. current and former US officials.

The newspaper pointed out that US officials said little about the Israeli bombing, which was intended to stop the flow of Iranian advanced weapons to Hezbollah and reduce the Iranian military and its proxies in Syria.

Behind the scenes, many of the Israeli missions were reviewed years before approval by senior officials at US Central Command and the Pentagon, according to current and former officials.

The United States is keen to ensure that Israeli air strikes do not interfere with the US-led military campaign against ISIS fighters whose self-proclaimed caliphate has been destroyed but is trying to return.
