ISRAEL COMPLAINS ANEW OF RUSSIAN-IRANIAN MISSILE COOPERATION.

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday sharply condemned alleged Russian supplies of missile technology to Iran, and warned that bilateral Russian-Israeli relations could be harmed if Moscow’s cooperation with Tehran continues. The strongly-worded rebuke was contained in a message from Netanyahu to Russian president Boris Yeltsin, which was handed to visiting Russian envoy Viktor Posuvalyuk.
