Iran is building a new missile factory in Syria under the cover of a Russian defence umbrella....
The Russian defence umbrella is there to protect Russian military assets, not Iranian assets. Israel has already made multiple attacks on Iranian controlled sites in Syria, and US air power has even been used to kill Russian mercenaries not associated with the Russian military. Russia does not like the Iranian presence in Syria much more than the US does and will not use its forces to protect Iranian assets.
