Syria protested to the
United Nations over an
Israeli air strike on its territory and warned of a possible "surprise" response. The foreign ministry summoned the head of the
U.N. force in the Israeli-occupied
Golan Heights to deliver the protest a day after
Israel hit what Syria said was a military research centre and diplomats said was a weapons convoy heading for
Lebanon. "Syria holds Israel and those who protect it in the
Security Council fully responsible for the results of this aggression and affirms its right to defend itself, its land and sovereignty,"

sign that Syria's grip on its chemical weapons is slipping as it battles an armed uprising could trigger
Israeli military strikes, Israel's vice premier said on Sunday. BEIRUT, Lebanon, Jan
. 30 (
UPI) -- Israeli military jets did not hit a target on the
Syrian-Lebanese border, Lebanese security sources told The (
Beirut)
Daily Star.
Hours after the unconfirmed airstrike Tuesday, the unidentified security sources told the newspaper there was no activity inside Lebanon. The sources confirmed, however, the
Lebanese army had registered increased violations of Lebanese airspace by Israeli jets, the newspaper said.
Reports of the alleged airstrike came just days after Israel expressed concern
Hezbollah has established a number of bases near chemical weapons stockpiles inside Syria and
Israeli officials fear the weapons may fall into militant hands.
Reports out of Beirut said Israeli fighter jets conducted three incursions into Lebanese airspace overnight, Ynetnews.com reported.
Silvan Shalom confirmed a media report that
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had last week convened a meeting of security chiefs to discuss the civil war in Syria and the state of its suspected chemical arsenal.
Israel and
NATO countries say Syria has stocks of chemical warfare agents at four sites. Syria is cagey about whether it has such arms but says if it had it would keep them secure and use them only to fend off foreign attack.
The Israeli meeting on Wednesday had not been publicly announced and was seen as unusual as it came while votes were being counted from Israel's parliamentary election the day before, which Netanyahu's party list won narrowly.
Should Lebanon's Hezbollah guerrillas or rebels battling forces loyal to
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad obtain Syria's chemical weapons,
Shalom told Israel's
Army Radio: "It would dramatically change the capabilities of those organizations."
Such a development would be "a crossing of all red lines that would require a different approach, including even preventive operations," he said, alluding to military intervention for which Israeli generals have said plans have been readied.
"The concept, in principle, is that this (chemical weapons transfer) must not happen," Shalom said. "
The moment we begin to understand that such a thing is liable to happen, we will have to make decisions."
Israeli media said on Sunday the military had deployed two "Iron Dome" rocket interceptor batteries near the northern city of
Haifa, an area near the Lebanese and
Syrian frontiers.
A military spokesman confirmed the report but insisted the battery placement was "not due to any specific security situation" but part of a routine of rotating these systems.
"COMING APART"
Addressing his cabinet on Sunday, Netanyahu said he intended to put together "the broadest and most stable government as possible in order, first of all, to meet the significant security threats that face the
State of Israel".

Difficult coalition talks could be ahead for Netanyahu with factions representing widely different sectors of the
Jewish state's population.
In his public remarks at the cabinet session, Netanyahu pointed to "what is happening in Iran and its proxies and at what is happening in other areas, with the deadly weapons in Syria, which is increasingly coming apart.
Raising the regional stakes, Iran, among Assad's few allies and itself long the subject of Israeli military threats over its nuclear program, said on Saturday it would deem any attack on Syria an attack on itself. what will happen February 2013
