The Russian military has launched airstrikes on terrorist positions in Syria’s Idlib and Deir ez-Zor provinces.
The strikes targeted ISIS and Al-Nusra Front outposts, destroying military equipment and arms depots. Earlier, Reuters published an article claiming Russian strikes had hit US-backed rebels in Deir ez-Zor province. However, the Russian Ministry of Defense has released satellite images showing US special forces, and their allies, camped inside former IS strongholds.
International affairs commentator Jonathan Steele talks to RT on the latest events in Deir ez-Zor.
