Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin met on Wednesday for the sixth time in two years.
In Russia's resort city of Sochi, Netanyahu told Putin his worries about Iran's growing role in Syria. The two leaders have been meeting every few months since 2015, to discuss issues related to the Syria conflict. In recent weeks, Russia has pushed hard for the establishment of de-escalation zones in Syria.
