Huge air strike targets terrorist bomb-making facility in Syria

Huge air strike targets terrorist bomb-making facility in Syria
29.05.2020 07:11
More than 130 combat missions have been launched in "the course of the last days", hitting 237 terrorist targets across the war-torn country, the Russian Ministry of Defence claims.

Direct hits have seen ISIS and terror group Jabhat al-Nusra-held buildings, underground shelters and artillery all taken out.

The extraordinary footage comes amid Western fears Russia are targeting Syrian rebel forces fighting against President Bashar al-Assad.

A clip – posted on YouTube – shows a Su-34 bomber – a Russian twin-engined, twin-seat fighter – taking out a terrorist camp near Aleppo used for training of militants who have arrived from other countries.

The ammunition depot and a training facilities were both eliminated in the bombing.

And a concealed command centre used by Jabhat al-Nusra – al-Qaida's branch in Syria – was destroyed near Salma, in Lattakia province, in a woodland area.

The centre had been used for coordination of militants' groups. 

The Russian MoD called this one of the "tactical important high points" of its airstrike campaign which hit targets across six Syrian provinces.

A Su-25 attack aircraft performed a strike against militants' fortified area which also took out two armoured vehicles and two off-road vehicles with anti-aircraft systems.

This footage shows an airstrike on a hangar filled with ten cars. 

ISIS has been forced to send fighters on horseback to the frontline after being bombarded by Russian airstrikes in recent weeks.
