MK Tzachi Hanegbi to IMRA: OK if Hezbollah fights rebels with tanks on
Israel Golan border
Dr.. Aaron Lerner - IMRA 27 September 2015

In a live interview this morning on Israel Radio Reshet Bet, Knesset's
Security and Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman MK Tzachi Hanegbi (Likud)
told anchor Aryeh Golan that Israel is not concerned about reports of the
transfer of tanks to Hezbollah as Hezbollah would use those tanks in Syria
and they would be easily observed if Hezbollah moved them to Lebanon.
Israel's concern, Hanegbi noted, is if anti-aircraft missiles and other
advanced equipment is transferred to Hezbollah.

IMRA followed up via SMS, asking "if there is any concern that Hezbollah
would use those tanks near our border in battle against the rebels now
occupying those areas?"

MK Hanegbi replied (in Hebrew): There's no problem.

IMRA repeated (in Hebrew): That's to say, you do not think that there is
any problem if they fight with tanks in the Golan next to our border?

MK Hanegbi replied:(in Hebrew): Correct
