But the Foreign Ministry is skeptical the calm will continue, and is preparing for a possibel barrage of condmenation after the Easter holiday ends on Monday.
Israel is mostly concerned with the response from Russia, which has previously severely condemned Israel for attacks alleged to it in Syria.
A Foreign Ministry official said: “We should remember that the Russians were angry the last time it was claimed Israel attacked. They said Israel is violating the UN charter.
“It’s possible they won’t say anything this time, since apparently no Russian equipment was destroyed, but if they can do so at the expense of the Americans – they’ll criticize us,” he added.
