The Russian jets flying out of the Humeimim Military Airbase began their attack by launching airstrikes over the towns of Abu Dali and al-Mosheirefeh.
The Russian airstrikes were followed by a large-scale raid on the Northern Hama towns of Al-Latamina and Kafr Zita, which are the future targets of the Syrian Army’s offensive.
In the coming days, the Syrian Army is expected to begin a long-awaited offensive to retake the Hama-Idlib axis from the militants.
Relevant reports said that the Russian Air Force targeted the headquarters of Al-Nusra Front in Northeastern Hama, inflicting major losses on the terrorists.
The warplanes destroyed the entire Al-Nusra facility in Northeastern Hama, killing at least 13 terrorists that were inside the building.
A field commander of Iraqi descent was among the militants killed in Russian air raid.
The bombing took place near the strategic town of al-Rahjan, which is also considered the Al-Nusra's main stronghold in the region.
