Russia pulls out from Syria

Russia pulls out from Syria

Russia announced last day, that the Russian forces and fighter jets deployed in war-torn Syria, will start pull out's from today. The decision made up by President Putin after considering with the Syrian dictator Assad. Russia deployed its fighter jets, missile systems, and special forces into Syria to safeguard the Assad regime from the west sponsored Syrian Sunni rebels.

After five months of intensive war fighting in Syria, Russia almost saved the Syrian dictator from the country's militia man. In early September the west sponsored Syrian rebels gathered major victory against the Syrian regime and move towards major port city Latakia and the Capital Damascus. with the tactical air deployment of Russian air force and Navy helped the Syrian regime to pull back the rebels from strategic locations.

Putin said in an interview that, Withdrawing from the Syrian theater will encourage both parties to accept a truce and this leads to a mutual understanding to cooperate peace process and continue to maintain the ceasefire.

Russia is not withdrawing from Syria completely, while they slowing down the operation,  Syrian sources confirmed that air defense systems like S 400, and Pantsir along with some modern fighter jets which include Su 30 SM and Su 35, and ground support systems like BTR infantry fighting vehicle and T 90 main battle tank will remain stays in Syria.

Sanction put on Syria since the civil war erupted in 2011 that selling such long range weapon systems, missiles, and fighter jets are banned by the international organizations. Leaving those modern weapons in Syria would breach the sanctions. However, Russia and Syria won't care about them.

The peace talks after the ceasefire agreement between the Syrian rebels vs Assad forces and his allies start effectively from February 27 this year. Even during the ceasefire, heavy clashes reported by two sides, the rebels also managed to shoot down a Syrian MiG 21 fighter jet on Monday.

There is many doubts raise that, recent developments in the Syrian theater, that gulf states start arming the rebels with anti-aircraft systems, who poses serious threats to the Syrian and Russian military wings. No civil flights allowed flying over Syria and Iraq since the start of Syrian civil war in early 2011.





Putin said that he has evidence of gulf states include Qatar and KSA sending lethal anti-aircraft systems to Syrian rebels through Turkey border.  this would pose a serious threat to the military jets flown by both Russia and Syria. So far rebels have no MANPAD's. otherwise, West and America keep the MANPAD's only in safe hands. There is no spotting of American Stinger or any other west Man pads found in Syria.

Putin also said, Turkey almost masses their forces close to Syrian border, that they will start a ground offensive in coming days. However Turkey already using the artillery's to bombard Syrian regime, ISIS and PKK positions close to the Turkey border. The US forces along with NATO almost finished construction of a military base close to the Iraq-Syria-Turkey border.

In another angle, Putin's withdrawal from Syria indicates, Russia also wants a political solution in Syria, the only option to end the civil war. Putin's this move may threaten to end Assad's dictatorship in Syria. If Russia withdraws from Syria, it would be a major setback to the Syrian regime.

The Russian lost very few in this war, that's less than ten Russian military and civilian contractors. and a Su 24 who was shot downed by Turkish air force. The Russians never entered in the battle by its foot. They used cruise missiles and bombs to stop the Syrian rebels forces.

ISIS vs the Collation and Russian Air force

ISIS vs the Collation and Russian Air force

     It's more than three months since Russia deployed it's tactical air troops and starts bombing ISIS and Rebel positions. Initially Russia told the operation would end in a matter of weeks, Many media reports also suggested ISIS won't survive against a massive Russian air contingent. However so far there is no real ground changes in Syria. Russians continuously bombing rebel positions with variety of new bombs include banned ammunition.

    After Turkey shoot down the Russian fighter jet, The situation has changed into different which forces Russia to deploy more powerful long range air defense missiles. The Russian aircraft's are forced to carry air to air missiles for self defense. However that wasn't decreased Russian bombing. It forced the Russians to intense the bombing campgain.

    Everyone claims most of the ISIS revenue comes with smuggled oil. Russia and it's allies blamed Turkey is trading with the ISIS oil without citing the sources. The Russians located some oil tanker convoy's and bombed them. Anyhow they never stops the ISIS oil business, Since ISIS shares border with KSA, Jordan, Iran and Turkey. Still the ISIS running good economy than many other governments in the world.

A destroyed house

   The Russians mainly focusing Rebel controlled Aleppo city in west Syria. The intense bombing resulted hundreds of civilian deaths in Aleppo. The Russian air support provide good victory's to the Syrian government forces and it's allies.  Currently the Rebels almost pulled back from Aleppo. Which gives a good victory to Assad. As of now most of the Aleppo province under Syrian government control

     On the other side ISIS pounded by Americans from Persian Gulf, The USS Harry S Truman arrived Persian gulf days ago, and starts bombing ISIS positions in Iraq, Americans didn't perform much in Syrian ISIS targets due to the S 400 deployment in Syria. US plans only special ground operation in Syria. Almost all airborne operations in Syria withdrawn due to safety precautions. Americans deployed ground forces in several key locations which include Kobane and northern Syria.

    French on the other side deployed his aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle in Mediternnan  sea. Where they carryout attacks inside Syria. Russians allowed the French to conduct missions inside Syria, and supports them too. France targets ISIS positions close to Iraq border with pin point delivery of PGM's from Rafale Aircraft's.

    France also used it's SCALP stand off cruise missile against Daesh positions. The missile hits exact positions and destroyed the targets completely. The Russians earlier used cruise missiles from Bombers, Surface ships and Submarines targeted Rebel and ISIS positions.

    Russia also plans for second air base in Syria for seamless operation. The Russians working on the Shayrat airbase which is located 25 miles off from Syrian city Homs. The Russians currently using the rotary wing platforms like Mi 24 P and other helicopters from Shayrat air force base. By modernizing the Shayrat air force base allows the Russians to use fixed wing fighter aircraft's too.

    The Germans also involved in the Bombing, They deployed some Tornodo ground attack jets and Euro fighter Typhoons for surveillance missions. German will assist the NATO partners by providing refueling support and satellite and reconnaissance support. German parliament agreed the government proposal of sending more than thousands of ground troops to Syria. However the actual ground reports of German forces in Syria yet to be confirmed.

Picture Showing incapacity of American and Russian campaign in Syria

     The Russians also planning to deploy some special forces in Syria for combat operations. There is many photos emerged in social media showing Russian forces fighting in Syria. Recent photographs shows Russian cargo ship carrying equipment's through bosphorus strait. That shows Russia soon going to deploy more ground forces in Syria.

    Anyhow, The Russian plans are dwindling, that they earlier planned to complete the mission within the end of this year. However many reports suggest China and Iran provides economic support to the Russians to keep fight in Syria.

Aftermath of Turkey shot down Russian Su 24 M

Aftermath of Turkey shot down Russian Su 24 M

    After the recent spur in Syria when Turkey shot downed a Russian Su 24. It's almost changed many things against FSA Rebels, Kurd Rebels and the ISIS. All three have  sponsors and have their own agenda which different from each other, which makes the Situation difficult to understand and solve through diplomatic routes. Kurds needs a separate country in Syria, Iraqi and Turkish Border, Islamic state need entire Middle east, and the FSA needs Freedom in Syria by toppling the dictator who gassed and killed nearly half a million innocent Syrians.

    Here each gets revenues from respective partners or sponsor. More than thirty five million Kurd peoples lives in the Iraqi, Iranian, Turkish and Syrian Borders. Their major goal is independent Kurdistan representing their own peoples. Majority of Kurds are Sunni Islamist's as well as some Shia minority living in Iranian borders. Another half a million Yazedi's living very closely to Iraqi borders. As said above they fighting against everyone, Like against Turkish, Free Syrian Army and the ISIS.

   Americans supporting the Kurdish close to Iraq and Syria to fight against ISIS. After Iraq, Kurd peoples in Iraq attacked most by ISIS. So here Kurd gets funded by Americans and the West to defend them from those brutal terrorists groups. On the other hand FSA gets funds from Middle east and west. and the So called ISIS gets fund from their own oils, which was smuggled through Kurd tribal area's via Turkey.

    Russians openly said, only after the shot down, It's the Turkey who buying ISIS oils. While Turkey blames Syrian Assad who gets cheaper oil from ISIS. Analysts confirms the ISIS extracted oil come to the Kurd Borders. and the bidding involved by Oil companies and some Nations as Russians told Turkey's Government, Who bids higher gets the oil, which was moved via Turkey or Syria to the ports.  Russians and Americans targeting those oil Trucks, However most of the Trucks are unable to  be traced.

    After the shot down, Russians deployed S 400 long range air defense batteries, That can track targets upto some 400 kilometers meantime it will engage airborne targets upto some 400 kilometer. The range can be covered entire Cyprus, Israeli Jerusalem and major Turkish cities which include NATO base Incrilik too. Makes each and every aircraft flying in the zone can be monitored and  targeted.

   This makes every foreign aircraft flying in Syria comes under the S 400 umbrella. Makes some NATO missions inside Syria also in troubles. Currently Some US, French Aircraft's conducting strikes inside Syria. Last four days there were very less airstrikes conducted by Collation aircraft inside Syria. Anyhow the S 400 in Syria won't make any real changes, However this makes sense of Russian plan to protect the Syrian airspace from rival aircraft's from NATO.

    Russia also warned Turkey to do not enter Syrian Air space, If Turkey do so Russians will strike the Turkish Air crafts. Actually Turkish Fighters comes inside Syrian Air space to attack Kurd Rebels. It's very rare. However this will happens occasionally. Last four days there were very less or zero Activities reported. While American F 15 C and Turkish F 16 D conducting Combat Air patrol in Turkish Border normally. Turkey also warns Russia to do not enter Turkish air space otherwise they will do the same.

   Russia almost broken all kind of military and economic cooperation's with Turkey.  This worsen Russian economic only. Since Russians export to Turkey is about some $25 billions every year. while Turkish export to Russia just $6 Billions. Which means economically worsen Russians sanctioning themselves. Russia almost lost it economic relation with west since the illegal annexation of Crimea and waging war in Eastern Ukraine.

    Anyway the situations will worsen only if Turkey and Russia clash each others in Black Sea or in Syrian border. unless there will be no more escalations in the Su 24 shot down. 

Syrian Battleground, Russian Marines and American A 10 Deployed

Syrian Battleground, Russian Marines and American A 10 Deployed

    The Syrian battleground sees two major world power competing to hold military balance in war torn Syrian Iraqi territories. Even after the Russian close air support Syrian Iranian troops and Hezbollah terrorists failed to capture grounds controlled by Free Syrian army sponsored by KSA and west. On the other side US continuing help the Kurdish forces to fight against ISIS in northern Syria close to Turkey. Turkey is an NATO Member requested help from NATO to safe guard their air space from air space violations from Syria.

    Russia currently deploying some three thousands of Marine units and special forces in Syria. Most of them are Special forces and FSB comes from Crimea and Eastern Ukraine. Those Special forces performed espionage missions inside Ukraine and seized major cities like Luhansk and Donestk. Those Cities are now under control of Russian sponsored Militia's. Russia plans to move those special forces to conduct scout missions inside Syria to pave the way to Syrian Army to achieve the objective. Some photos in social media found that Russian special forces already operating inside Syrian Battle grounds.

    Spotters across middle east found continuous Russian deployment in Syria which include Russian Marines and other equipment's. Russia already has some two thousand plus troops inside Syria for many activities. They assist Syrian ground forces in the grounds, assisting command planning and conduct offensive missions, logistics supports like mechanics and ground support and many more. Even most of the Syrian Fighters jets are serviced by Russian ground crews.

    Russian forces also deployed air defense systems like communication denied systems to protect the air space by jamming fighter jets communication. Russia also deployed Pantsir S1 quick reaction SAM's to protect the Syrian air space from NATO and Israeli aircraft's. Even with the dense air denial environment Israel successfully performed two combat sorties and destroyed several Hezbullah convoy's inside Syria.

   

 On the other side, In Northern Syria US supporting the Kurd forces to battle against ISIS in Manbij and Jerablus. At first US deployed six F 16 C fighters in Turkey to safe guard their air space which was replace by twelve A 10 and six F 15 C. The Eagle's will provide cover and conduct combat air patrol missions close to Syrian air space. while the A 10 helps the Kurd forces to fight against the ISIS.

    US also plans to deploy another batch of A 10 warthog's in Iraq to support the YPG forces to retake the Sinjar provenance from ISIS control. US currently assisting the Sinjar offensive using their F 16's operated from Iraqi air fields. The Kurd forces planning to retake the Sinjar before the winter starts. The offensive almost stalled since there is no political cooperation between Yazedi's and Kurd's. Kurd forces allied with Yazedi's controls 20% of Sinjar as of now.

     Days ago US and Kurd forces conducted a special operation mission to retake key position in Al hawa close to Iraqi borders. The US Air force provided good small arms weaponry to the Kurds before starting the offensive. The ground support includes new set of mortar's Rifles and Rocket launchers. US also provided communication systems to coordinate US Strike package to hits the correct target.

     Three A 10 and one AC 130 gun ship roared over Syrian Air space and provided close air support. The mission lasted for more than hours. US continuously strafed the ISIS positions using GAU Avenger cannon and AC 130's howitzers. The mission successfully pushed the ISIS from Al hawa. and The Kurd forces retakes the city entrance and erects defensive positions.

   Jordon also concerned about ISIS build up in Al Tanf close to Jordon borders, and asks Israeli and US reconnaissance missions over Jordon Syrian border. earlier Israel provided some of the AH 1 Cobra helicopters to Jordon to keep the border's secure from Infiltration. US and Israel discussing about Jordanian request of surveillance mission over Al Tanf.   

Who is leading in Syria even after the Russian Bombing

Who is leading in Syria even after the Russian Bombing

The known SAA - Cheering a small victory

    It's more than a month since Russian forces deployed it's forces inside Syria and launched air combat, Intelligence support and small special operations. However the Syrian Regime didn't get any good results even after the bigger campaign. The Syrian forces gets good support from Iran Russia and Hezbollah terrorists, where they can starts a major offensive near to Aleppo, a three front battle between ISIS vs FSA vs SAA. The battle starts more than 20 days ago still the ISIS hold it's grounds near Aleppo.

    Before the offensive, It's the Rebel forces who controlled the Aleppo suburbs and city center. The Rebel forces captured cities around Aleppo and they move towards Idlib and captured then they advances into Latakia Port. However the Syrian and Russian forces has only hope of using the port as a Military resupply pump. Once the Rebels tries to advances close to the Latakia port. The Russian fighter jets and special forces driven out the Rebels and pushed back from Latakia a successful operation lead by Russian Infantry.

    The Syrians main objective is to capture the Western Syria from the rebel forces, then only they can drive out the Rebels to engage the ISIS in eastern side cities like Palmyra and Al Raqqa. The Russians tried as much as possible to provide air cover to the Syrian regime forces, however they didn't perform much better. Since the Rebels has good equipment's supplied by Saudi's and West.

    The Rebel forces shown their best to defeat the Syrian regime and the ISIS. The Syrian rebels also have good strategy of special operation missions. Team of Rebel anti tank crew destroyed more than hundred Syrian armor, which include BMP personnel carrier and T 72 main battle tanks. Usage of the anti tank missile increased from less than fifty to more than one fifty within a month. The Rebel forces also enraging a assassination mission by killing key military commanders in the conflict zone.

    The Saudi's are the major arms supplier to the Syrian Rebel forces, KSA Supplied most of the US made TOW anti tank missiles to the Syrian Rebels. The Saudi's para dropping those weapons close to the Syrian border near Turkey, later it was transported through ground vehicles before reach to the Rebels hands. The Syrian rebels using US made Tow missile, Russian made Konkrus and Fagot missiles and the French milan's. Those are all second generation missiles need a crew keep guiding the missile till it hits the Target.

    Meanwhile The US forces contentiously dominating the Iraqi forces and brings number of good victories along with the Iranian, Kurdistan and Iraqi forces support. The Americans and west clearly co ordinate the ground forces and gives good air support, which liberated most of the ISIS stronghold in Iraq. However major cities like Fallujah and Mosul still under the ISIS control.

Pakistani produced HJ 8 Anti tank missile

   Weeks ago, US Army's Delta Special forces along with Kurdistan special forces launched a surprise attack deep inside the ISIS heart center of Sinjar mountain valley. The special operation ends by killing more than fifty ISIS terrorists and rescuing more than seventy Kurdish, Yazedi and Iraqi civilians. During the battle  US Army's delta force special operator Master Sgt. Joshua killed during the daring rescue operation. Joshua is the first US Soldier who killed by the ISIS.

    Within next two to three days ISIS surprised the US and Iraqi forces by airing a new video killing civilians close to the earlier targeted building. This forced the Americans Kurdistan and Iraqi forces to fix the next target as Sinjar. 24 hours ago Kurdistan and Iraqi soldiers lead by US special forces and US Air force start a major offensive operation to driven out the ISIS from Sinjar. The Biggest battle is currently ongoing in Sinjar which is same like the Tikrit offensive lead US collation Forces

    Days ago, President of the United States announced deploying special forces inside Syria close to Kurdistan and Iraq, to carry out Special mission deep inside ISIS stronghold to give continuous shock. This allows the US forces to gather more intells about the ISIS advance moves by hitting their nerve center. The US Special forces also support the Kurdistan forces to carryout counter assault mission against ISIS. Reports also reveals that US may support Syrian rebels too. However sources clearly mentioned they will assist the Kurd forces only.

Israeli F 16 Fighters

 

 The Middle east surprise man Israel also carried out a air strike just outside from Syrian capital Damascus. The Strike carried out by Israeli air force by destroying Hezbollah bound SCUD missiles. The missiles are in convoy's transported by the Hezbullah terrorists. As Israel earlier stated that "we won't involve any mess inside Syria or Iraq, If any one who threatens Israel, will be neutralized" . The Hezbollah's main objective is attack Israel and killing Jews, Since the start of Syrian civil war Israeli's bombed many times inside Syria by stopping advanced weaponry in hands of Hezbullah.

     These all shows a good lesson that Syria is free for every one, that any one can attack their enemies, The Shia controlled Syrian regime have only hope of Russians and Iranian forces for their survival. While the battle will continue for long time.  

Missiles, Bombs and Tanks, Russia punishing Syrian Rebel groups

Missiles, Bombs and Tanks, Russia punishing Syrian Rebel groups

    After the tactical air deployment, Russia now moves to intensify the attack on Syrian rebels and ISIS terrorists. as last week Russia started firing the Long range cruise missile from Caspian sea, which is close to Russian mainland. the long range cruise missiles hits the rebel positions very closely making severe damages to the rebels defensive positions. and the strike allows the Syrian regime forces advance towards the Rebels positions in northern Aleppo, a Syrian rebels stronghold.

    The Russians provided tactical air support, missile strikes and close air support to the Syrian Regime to recapture the ground, the Russians never sends it's ground troops or special forces to support the Syrian army. however they covers the regime forces from the air, by using Mi 24 P attack helicopters armed with cannons and unguided Rockets. more than four Mi 24 P fly very low and provided close air support to the Syrian Regime forces.

    The Offensive is not a success till now, even with the Russian Air support. Syrian Rebels ambushing the Regime Tank columns in every positions. the Rebels has Saudi supplied US made second generation TOW anti armor missiles, and Russian made Konkrus missiles. they used those missiles and ambushed the Syrian armors. as first day of offensive, Syrian ground troops lost more than twenty armored vehicles. which include BMP and T 72 Main battle tanks. the Rebels too suffered causalities, only because of the Russian gunships. the Saudi and West denied to supply MANPAD's to the Syrian Rebels, if they have MANPAD's they surely destroy all flying close air support helicopters.

    The Offensive continued the next day too, the Russians dropped cluster munitions and laser guided munitions. the coordinated attack forced the Rebels to withdraw from the northern Aleppo stronghold. however both Syrian army and Syrian rebels suffered very much, and the ISIS used the chance, they suddenly comes from the northern side and capture the battle zone, and now ISIS gains the northern Aleppo grounds. and Russian, Syrian, Iranian forces striking the same Aleppo as third day.

     The Aleppo offensive comes with a coordinated strike, Russian Air support, Iranian Tactical support and Syrian ground support, yet they loose the captured ground to ISIS. during the offensive the Rebels scored high value hit. they killed the Iranian Revolutionary guard commander Brig Gen Hossein. he is the one who commanded all the Iranian activities inside Syria, more than 2000 Iranian light infantry Soldier operating under his command, killing the general is a big victory to the Rebel side. however it's still unknown who killed the Iranian General whether the ISIS or the Syrian rebels.

    The Russians using what Americans doing inside Iraq, the known good offensive is the coordinated attack over ISIS grounds in Tikrit, the Tikrit battle is one of the Biggest battle in the 2015, led by the US Air force, US Military advisers, Iranian Ground troops headed by Gen Qasem, and the Iraqi soldiers, the offensive spearheaded by the US. the US and British air strikes who supported the Ground troops push towards the ISIS stronghold, makes a wonderful victory, 

    however the same is not working with the Russian air support, even the FSA don't have any anti sir capabilities, also it's clear the US spearheaded operation held by two phases and lasted more than a month, so we have to wait for a month to conclude how much the Russian air strike proving.

   Russia not only attacking the Syrian Rebel positions in Aleppo, their Fighter aircraft dropping Satellite guided bombs over ISIS positions too, Raqqa is the ISIS's stronghold in Syria, which is way longer from the Syrian capital, and no sight of coordinated strikes over ISIS positions in  Raqqa, Syria and Russia planned for retake the western side first before entering towards ISIS positions, the Russian air strikes will continue in coming days as Russian Military leaders said, and it could be major war against ISIS, and Syrian Rebels.

Russia Deployed it's troop in Syria to oust ISIS

Russia Deployed it's troop in Syria to oust ISIS

  Some sources reported that Russia starts deploying it's armed forces into Syria to help Assad from Sunni based Al Nusara and the ISIS, as of now the Syrian government forces loosing it's grounds to  Rebel forces or the ISIS, most or half of the Syrian territory is under control of ISIS, as they not only capturing grounds, they kills peoples and destroys historical buildings, most of the ISIS held place earlier under Syrian Rebel forces aka the FSA, when the ISIS comes in huge numbers they eventually withdrew from the captured grounds.

    From the beginning of civil war Russia and Iran always gives their hands to Syria and Assad to continue the offensive till now, It's clear the Russians are in Syrian Military bases who giving instructions to the Syrian Forces to fight against the FSA, not only advising, they assist in maintaining those Russian made military tanks and other support systems, which include the old Russian made Combat Jets like Su 24 fencer and the Mig 21, which was used to drop chemical bombs over Syrian civilians and Free Syrian Army Militia's.

   Last week many Reports suggests that Russia delivers four MiG 31 Interceptors to Syria, Russians denied such delivery, however it's believed that they are already arrived into Syria and may be operational, Those MiG 31 used for nothing but helps the Syrian forces to fight against the Israeli's, who performing special combat missions inside Syria, to cut the Syrian military Supply's to Hezbullah Terrorists, Hezbullah is a Shia Terrorism, who supports the Shia Government in Syria the Assad Regime, however they attacks Israel from Syrian Controlled Golan heights, months ago, Hezbullah attacked and Kills two Israeli solders with anti tank missiles,

    The Reports about Russian activity in Syria reported near Latakia port, that's the major port under control by the Syrian forces, also the Russian resupply also comes through the port, Russians also setup-ed a small Military base there commonly known as Listening post, where they can observe and providing security to the major Port,

   The Free Syrian Army Reportedly nearby to the Port, they were just some tens of miles away from the port, where Syrian forces and Rebels engaged in heavy fighting since week, a video footage from that conflict shown to Syrian state media SANA news agency, which showing some soldiers speaking in Russian, It's the first time since the Civil war Russian troops directly involved in the combat, this would be some reasons, at first the Syrian army slowly losing it's grounds to FSA and ISIS, also in Aleppo they facing two enemies, where also heavy fighting reported,

    So it might be the Russians who trying to safe guard their port falling to Rebel forces, which would be a major setback to Assad as well as Russia too, also some Ship spotters takes photographs of some unknown cargo filled in a Russian Landing ship which was entered Latakia just a days before, It's should be a second phase delivery of Russian BTR 82 A, the modern BTR used along with the Russian Forces in Syria, as photos appeared in Social media's days ago,

   As many military analysts thinks, the Russian deployment in Syria would be good If they were Fight against the ISIS, if they were fight against the early American sponsored FSA, then it should be a game changing, which US and it's allies may step into the Syrian Civil war, although some other reports mentioning, because of large number of refugees coming towards Turkey, so far nearly 2 million Syrian civilians gets asylum inside Turkey, and Turkey asking US and NATO allies to impose no fly zone in Syria, to stop feeling.

    The FSA also reported that, they saw Some Russian Combat Jets probably newly delivered MiG 31, along with many new surveillance drones, if NATO and US imposed no fly zone, and it would be the end of Civil war, because the Syrian Regime living with the help of it's air force and chemical bombs, as a small child from Syria found dead in Turkey beach which outrages all over the world, because of the Syrian Assad, more than five million of Syrian civilians gets asylum in nearby countries and another five million reportedly displaced, and some three lakhs of Civilian casualties,

So it would be very good if Russians starts fighting against the ISIS not against the Rebel forces.
