TEHRAN (FNA)- The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed that Syrian army positions were attacked by two F-16 fighter jets and two A-10 ground attack aircraft of the US-led coalition.
Today at 17:00-17:50 Moscow time, international anti-Daesh coalition (two F-16 and two A-10 jets) carried out four strikes on Syrian government forces’ units encirled by Daesh (ISIL) near Deir Ezzur airport. The coalition’s aircraft entered Syrian airspace from the side of the Iraqi border,” Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said, Sputnik reported.
Earlier in the day, the General Command of the Syrian army accused the US-led coalition of bombing the Syrian army’s positions in Deir Ezzur.
As a result of the attack, 62 Syrian soldiers were killed and some 100 others were injured, according to information received from the Syrian command in Deir Ezzur, he said.
The Russian Defense Ministry said that Daesh terrorists launched an offensive soon after the US-led coalition aircraft attacked the Syrian government forces. “Even if this airstrike has been carried out due to an error in the coordinates of the target, it is still a direct consequence of US side’s unwillingless to coordinate its actions against terrorist groups with Russia,” the Russian Defense Ministry spokesman emphasized.
Konashenkov said that fighting with terrorists has been taking place near the Deir Ezzur airport.
The news comes amid a ceasefire in Syria agreed by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State John Kerry on September 9. The ceasefire stipulated by the US-Russia agreement came into force on September 12.
(Note: Later reports by the Syrian army on Saturday night said the death toll of the US-led coalition airstrike increased to 80)
Øbama must keep ISIS safe at all cost.
Is this the start of it all?
If you have a backhoe you better start digging a fallout shelter. Basalt rubble makes a good EMP sheild over the top and you can even get basalt rebar for concrete as well as fabric. Good against EMP effects.
If you don’t have a backhoe its worth it to rent one or buy one of those ride on backhoes like the DR. Anybody asks you can tell them you are building a swimming pool. And make sure it does have a big drain.
Good luck folks. They got enough stupid A-holes in the air-force to actually kick this thing off. Hopefully Russian Government won’t buy the provocation and will play it cool while they are chipping away at US/British/Israel/Jordan/Saudi backed moon bat crazy bloodthirsty maniacs they call IsiS. Bottom line is if USAF pilots will act as close air support for ISIS then you have to consider the fact that we probably have been betrayed at every level. Sure hurts doesn’t it when you ponder the reality that our pilots and GIs are actually trying to promote our enemies and trying to get us killed.
Trumps winning (from a foreign standpoint) and all of a sudden you have no fuel in 3 States, you have a massive fuel spill elsewhere, you have a popular uprising in North Dakota and we shall see what happens Monday. Perhaps you ARE at war and just have not real-eyesed it yet. I hope your banks don’t tank Monday.
Not quite sure how Russia has been so reserved over Syria. An ally and invited guest to assist Assad defend against an illegal act of terrorism on his soil and nobody has bothered to punch the bully on the playground back in the nose? Sad thing is someone will create a pop culture distraction and Americans will not be interested longer than 5 minutes over this SERIOUS murderous act.
They are walking a tight rope between full on WW3 and nuclear exchange and waiting until the USA Inc. Anglo/American corporation collapses. Right now America is dispised and distrusted world wide. Other counties know that 911 was a false flag terror attack, and this war is nothing more than empire building and smashing the world for the NWO. They know american people are enraged, and arming for a civil dustup, but don’t think we are going to do squat to stop these monsters in Washington. They really don’t think we can pull it off and they are going to end up having to gang up on America to defeat it just as was done with Germany.
John Kerry a fag and JewSA #1 terrorist.
A sad day and prayers for the good people of Syria.
Come on VP, make some heads roll.
