Russian warplanes have launched presision strikes on positions of the Islamic State group in Syria, the Defence Ministry in Moscow said on Wednesday.
Targets included military equipment, communication centers, motor vehicles as well as munition and fuel depots of the jihadist group outlawed in Russia as terrorist organization, TASS quoted the Defence Ministry official representative Major- General Igor Konashenkov as telling reporters.
Admiral Vladimir Komoyedov, Chairman of the Defense Committee at State Duma, the lower house of Russia’s Parliament, told TASS on Wednesday that Russia will give preference to ground attack aircraft, in particular Su-25, as well as reconnaissance aircraft.
Fighter-bombers and helicopters can also be used, according to Komoyedov.
