Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Russia of aiding Iran with antisemitic and anti-Zionist bot networks targeting Israel, in response to a question from The Jerusalem Post. Speaking during a Sunday presentation of Israel's national security doctrine, Netanyahu said that Russia's cooperation with Iran runs counter to its own interests and that Moscow has taken steps against Israel. He noted that Israeli and Russian interests sometimes clash, and that he raises these issues with Russian President Vladimir Putin 'very clearly.' Netanyahu warned that if Iran becomes a nuclear power, it could seek to turn elements of Russia's Muslim population into its agents, citing Iran's ideological views on world conquest.
