The Russian Air Force has conducted 71 sorties targeting 118 terrorist targets in Syria over the past 24 hours, including an Al-Nusra Front command center, the Defense Ministry reports.
The number of sorties has risen due to the increased amount of confirmed intelligence information on Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) facilities, Major-General Igor Konashenkov told journalists on Wednesday.
The strikes hit targets in Idlib, Homs, Hama, Aleppo, Latakia and Damascus provinces.
Russian jets have bombed hidden, as well as non-operational, terrorist military facilities.
An Al-Nusra Front command center located in the province of Homs has been destroyed, Konashenkov said. The make-shift control center, arranged in a two-story building, had four jeeps parked nearby.
“After drones have studied the location, a surgical airstrike inflicted by Su-34 attack plane has wiped off both the building and the vehicles,” the general noted.
