Russian Long-Range Bombers Missiles Target Daesh in Raqqa

World

Russian Tu-95MS long-range bombers have launched cruise missile strikes on Daesh targets near the Syrian city of Raqqa, the Russian Defense Ministry said.

According to Sputnik, Russian strategic bombers destroyed several terrorist camps, training centers and a command post of one of the major terrorists’ units near Daesh’s de facto capital of Raqqa.

The ministry said that “reconnaissance means have confirmed the destruction of all designated [terrorist] targets” near Raqqa.

 The strikes have been carried out by brand new X-101 cruise missiles.

The long-range bombers that took off from a Russian airfield flew over Iraq and Iran. After launching cruise missile strikes on Daesh targets, the bombers returned to Russia.

“Su-30SM and Su-35S provided air cover to the Russian bombers from the Hmeymim airbase.”
