Iran is building missiles in Syria and Lebanon

Iran is building installations for the production of advanced missiles in Syria and Lebanon.

At the beginning of a meeting with UN boss Antonio Guterres, Netanyahu Iran accused Syria of being used as a 'military waste base as part of its declared purpose to eradicate Israel. '

An Israeli television channel earlier this month showed satellite images of one of the alleged Iranian installations in Syria. Channel Channel 2 claimed that it was about pictures of a complex that is being built at the coastal town of Baniyas. It would be intended for the production of long-range missiles.

Iran has not responded to the allegations yet. The country is one of the most important allies of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Netanyahu warned last week that Israel is willing to act unilaterally in order to prevent further expansion of Iran's military presence in Syria.

The Israeli government fears the consequences of a possible military victory of Assad in the Syrian civil war. In such a case, a permanent Iranian garrison could sometimes be left in neighboring Syria, thought of Jerusalem.
