A caption accompanying the post said, ‘Pilots and technicians of Hmeymim airbase have sent their message to terrorists by priority airmail.’
As Moscow kept up its intensified bombardments in the already war-torn country, Russia also unleashed cruise missiles from warships in the Caspian Sea at targets across Syria. At seven targets in the Raqqa, Idlib and Aleppo provinces, Moscow fired 18 missiles from ships in its Caspian Sea fleet . Since the start of the bombing campaign on September 30, it was the second time that warships have been used since. After confirming for the first time on Tuesday, Moscow has stepped up its strikes in Syria with long-distance bombers.
It was briefingly told by Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu to President Vladimir Putin that cruise missile strikes against one target near the ISIS-controlled city of Deir Ezzor had killed ‘more than 600 fighters’. But it was not specified when the strike had taken place. It was also told by Minister Shoigu to the President Putin that in Syria planes destroyed 15 oil refining and storage facilities and 525 trucks carrying oil during this week’s bombing blitz.
