Russian fighter jets in the Syrian province of Hama and in areas 
bordering the Idlib province.<br />

A video of the purported raids uploaded to YouTube by activists said 
at least four people were killed and dozens injured, and that the death 
toll was expected to rise.Al Jazeera could not independently verify the reports of the air strikes.The
 developments come at a time when Syrian fighters are targeting 
government forces and pro-regime units in Hama with Grad missiles, the 
Syrian Observatory said in a statement.Meanwhile, Syrian army forces have launched a ground operation in the country’s west, reports say.The offensive is targeting Khan Shaykhun, a town in Idlib 
strategically situated on a rebel-controlled route that connects Aleppo 
and Damascus.It said it has “no information about casualties” yet.Russia, a key ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s government,

The two agreed on a mechanism to avoid “misunderstandings” and clashes in Syrian airspace between the two militaries’ jets.Tuesday’s talks were to include Russian Deputy Chief of Staff Nikolai Bogdanovsky and his Israeli counterpart Yair Golan.Israeli military officials reportedly fear that Russian air strikes could cut their room for manoeuvre in Syria.Russian military officials were to hold talks with their Israeli 
counterparts in Tel Aviv on Tuesday after the countries’ leaders agreed 
to establish a mechanism to avoid accidental clashes in Syria.Israel’s military confirmed the two-day meeting on “regional 
coordination,” which comes after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and 
Russian President Vladimir Putin held talks last month related to Syria.Several purported strikes on Iranian arms transfers to Hezbollah 
through Syria have occurred in recent months that were not officially 
acknowledged by Israeli authorities.Moscow
 informed Israel it was about to launch air strikes in Syria before its 
attacks last week, the first by Russian warplanes in the years-old 
conflict.<br />

Russian warplanes have been flying over Syrian territory since 
Wednesday, conducting air strikes on what Moscow says are targets 
belonging to Islamic State group jihadists in the country’s northern and
 central provinces.The West has accused Moscow of using the raids as cover to hit 
moderate opponents of Russian ally Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.Israel opposes Assad, but has sought to avoid being dragged into the war in neighbouring Syria.It also fears that Iran could increase its support for Hezbollah and 
other militant groups as international sanctions are gradually lifted 
under a July nuclear deal that Moscow helped negotiate between Tehran 
and world powers.Netanyahu has said he is determined to stop arms deliveries to 
Lebanon’s Shiite Hezbollah movement and accused Syria’s army and Iran of
 trying to create a “second front” against Israel.
