Russia Reportedly Strikes ISIS Targets In Historic Palmyra

BEIRUT, Oct 6 (Reuters) - Russian jets hit Islamic State targets in the Syrian city of Palmyra and the northern province of Aleppo, Syrian state television said on Tuesday, quoting a military source.

It said the strikes destroyed 20 vehicles and 3 weapons depots in Islamic State-held Palmyra. In Aleppo, they targeted the towns of Al-Bab and Deir Hafer, about 20 km (10 miles) east of a military airport currently besieged by Islamic State fighters.
