Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday expressed Israel's “dismay” to Russian President Vladimir Putin at Russia's decision to lift a self-imposed ban on supplying S-300 missiles to Iran.

A statement from Netanyahu's office said he “expressed Israel's dismay at the decision… (and) told President Putin that this step will only increase Iran's aggression in the region and will destabilize security in the Middle East.”

Putin lifted the ban on delivering the air defense system to Iran on Monday.
