TEL AVIV [MENL] -- Israel has determined that the S-300PMU2 air defense
system was not yet delivered to Syria.
Officials said the Israeli intelligence community has assessed that the
regime of President Bashar Assad did not acquire any S-300 batteries from
Russia. They said, however, that the Kremlin issued commitments to honor a
2010 contract for the delivery of up to four systems to Assad's military.
