ALEPPO, SYRIA (1:45 P.M.) – The Russian Air Force has issued their response to the latest jihadist offensive in Aleppo on Friday, launching several airstrikes over the southwestern outskirts of the provincial capital.
According to a military source in Aleppo, a Russian air battalion has launched well over 30 airstrikes in the last two hours, targeting jihadist movements between the village of Khan Touman and the provincial capital.
Jaysh Al-Fateh (Army of Conquest) launched a massive offensive this morning to lift the two month long siege of east Aleppo.
Using several suicide bombers, Jaysh Al-Fateh has repeatedly attempted to break-through the Syrian Arab Army’s defenses around the city; however, local sources deny any advances by the jihadists.
