Lots of Twitter chatter that the Russians made a request to the Lebanese government to clear airspace tonight for “Major flight operations”.

Terrorizing the terrorists.
One thing about Russian warfare, rules of engagement are anything it takes to get the job done.

The headline is erroneous. In the body of the article, it says "1,400 tonnes" in four days.

Must be a typo on 1.4 tons.
That’s just half the extended range bombload for one F-18.

Isn’t a basic load of bombs for a B54 over 50 tons?

The Russians have chosen an expensive way to deliver this amount of ordinance, unless this is an opportunity to use legitimate targets in an operational test of their new gear.
What's that hippie word, ... serendipity?

It’s a B-52. When I was in 50 years ago, they could carry 96 750# “dumb” bombs.

Thanks. SO it’s 1.4 kilotons, which sounds about right.
