Israel just bought a lot of the Russian vaccine and they are not known for buying bad merchandise.

Israel is financing Sputnik for the government of Syria, for use in Syria only.  The deal is part of a prisoner swap where Syria released an Israelí woman.  Vaccine diplomacy.  

Israel has only used Pfizer on its citizens, though it also ordered Moderna and has a small stockpile of that on hand.
