The Russian Air Force has carried out 81 sorties hitting 263 Islamic State (IS) targets in two days in Syria, the Defense Ministry said in a statement.

Russian jets hit targets that mostly belong to Islamic State and other militants in such provinces as Aleppo, Damascus, Deir ez-Zor, Idlib, Latakia, Raqqa, Hama and Homs, Igor Konashenkov, a Defense Ministry spokesman, said Thursday. After their combat missions all the jets returned to the Russian Khmeimim airbase in Latakia, he said. . . .

Su-25 fighters also targeted a warehouse storing anti-tank missile systems belonging to the Al-Qaeda affiliate Al-Nusra Front in Idlib province, northwest Syria.

“According to data obtained via the joint information center in Baghdad, several days ago a consignment of anti-tank missile systems was delivered to one of the warehouses located in the area of Maarat al-Numan city in Idlib province,” Konashenkov said, adding that the weapons were intended to be used against the advancing forces of the Syrian army.

“After the information had been confirmed via several channels, a pair of SU-25 jets carried out strikes hitting the target and destroying the warehouse together with its contents.”

“Then it’s time for a military coup and lots of hanging and firing squads”

Been that time for over six years.

Instead of running costly air sorties and dropping expensive bombs they could be using those resources to rebuild mosques, erect new sewerage plants, teach the terrorists how to reduce CO2 emissions and fight global warming and promote homosexuality among their own troops.

And shredding the Russkie Ranger School records of GI Ludmilla...

Somebody is lying and we have two sources (RT and MSM) that are at least potentially untrustworthy.

You forgot "unserious". Has RT recently axed Putin whether he's a cartoon bad guy, or what his American Fantasy Football League picks are?

Including this tidbit:

The latest video to emerge from the battlefields shows a mountain under fire from Russian flamethrower missiles known as the 'Blazing Sun'.

The explosion from these high-powered weapons triggers a wave of heat 1000°C which burns all of the oxygen nearby, leaving victims unable to breathe.

Har! The Russians have re-invented Frantan, circa 1975!
