Media: Russia delivered 50 Tochka-U missiles to Syria
This week, Russia delivered 50 Tochka-U tactical missiles to the Syrian port of Tartus. This was Russia’s largest delivery of such weapons to Syria, Fox News reported, citing a U.S. official.
"This is a very big delivery of missiles for someone who is supposedly winding down the war effort," the source told the channel.
Recently, the Russian military in Syria reportedly fired two missiles Tochka-U and four Iskander missiles at the positions of the opposition fighters in the Idlib province. The sources of Fox News noted that it is still unclear whether the Syrians that were attacked by the missiles were supported by the United States.
80% of the Russian airstrikes in Syria are allegedly not directed against the so-called Islamic State, but rather against "other targets" — the Syrian opposition and civilian population.
