My Way News - Syria's Assad 'confident in victory' in civil war
My Way News reports: "Syrian President Bashar Assad said in an interview broadcast Thursday that he is 'confident in victory' in his country's civil war, and he warned that Damascus would retaliate for any future Israeli airstrike on his territory. Assad also told the Lebanese TV station Al-Manar that Russia has fulfilled some of its weapons contracts recently, but he was vague on whether this included advanced S-300 air defense systems [...] Earlier this week, Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon said Israel considered the S-300s in Syrian hands a threat and signaled it was prepared to use force to stop delivery."
