A massive Russian bombardment on Raqqa has just ended. Six long-range Tu-22M3 bombers have hit the south-east, north and north-east areas of the city, destroying an Islamic State chemical weapons factory.
The area - take over from the Ministry of Defense - was repeatedly hit by our bombers who destroyed all the targets.
To protect long-range bombers - specify from Moscow - we sent the entire Su-30 and Su-35 fleet deployed in Syria.
"After destroying the targets, all Russian aircraft returned to their respective bases."
