Russian bombers and assault planes have attacked 49 terrorist targets, making a total of 33 sorties over the last 24 hours. All the planes have successfully returned to the Khmeimim air base in Latakia, Russia’s Defense Ministry reports.
The airstrikes hit targets in the provinces of Aleppo, Damascus, Hama, Idlib and Latakia.
Russian aircraft bombed two command headquarters, three arms depots, two underground bunkers, 32 firing positions in mountainous areas, nine fortified battlefield positions and a workshop producing missile launchers and rockets for Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL).
“A direct hit into the facility caused the explosives stored there to detonate. This led to the complete destruction of the instillation,” Konashenkov said.
Reconnaissance missions on Sunday night established that several large groups of terrorists, made up of hundreds of jihadists each, have left their positions and are heading towards the village of Marj Al-Sultan.
