Russian Federation gave USA advance notice of a few Syria strikes

Russian planes continues to pound the Islamic State jihadists in Syria with vengeance as bombs being dropped are emblazoned with the words “For our people” and “For Paris” after Moscow vowed retaliation following the bombing of a plane over Sinai.

In at least 50 bombing raids, towns across Deir al-Zor province, including near the Iraqi border, were hit and dozens of vehicles and fuel oil tankers were destroyed, the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

Most of those strikes targeted strongholds of the Islamic State group in Raqqa and Deir-ez-Zor, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Syrians are due to start political discussions in the new year, beginning a process Washington hopes will allow foreign players to focus their fire on the Islamic State group that was behind last week’s bloody Paris attacks.

With Russian Federation announcing doubling its air strikes in Syria, its defense officials claimed that more than 600 militants were killed in a single cruise missile strike.

Unverified images have been circulating on the internet of Syria-bound U.S. missiles bearing the handwritten inscription “From Paris with love”.

Putin praised the Russian operation in Syria but said it was “still not sufficient” to wipe out the jihadists in the country and that a “large volume of work” lay ahead.

Lebanon said Friday it was preparing to re-route flights from Beirut airport after Russian Federation requested they avoid an area over the eastern Mediterranean because of three days of military manoeuvres.

But with the French stepping up their involvement in Syria following the brutal murder of 129 civilians in Paris by ISIS operatives on November 13, the war in Syria is preparing to morph yet again. He says this deprived IS of $1.5 million in daily income from oil sales.
