Syrian desert | Russian jets continue intensive strikes on ISIS positions

SOHR activists have monitored ongoing Russian airstrikes on ISIS positions in the Syrian desert. According to SOHR sources, regime forces are preparing for launching a large-scale campaign, with Russian support, on ISIS cells in the Syrian desert, from the eastern countryside of Homs and the southern and western countryside of Al-Raqqah to Deir Ezzor countryside.

 

Yesterday, SOHR activists monitored a squadron of seven Russian jets flying this morning over the Syrian Desert in Homs and Al-Suwaidaa. The Russian jets executed several airstrikes, targeting positions of the “Islamic State” organization deployed in large swaths of the desert.
