The militants of the Islamic State terrorist group banned in Russia managed to knock out from Syrian Palmyra thanks to the support of the reinforcement from the air. This was written by the local edition of Al-Masar .
The forces of the government army managed to regroup after the arrival of reinforcements. Then they started a counterattack. It, as noted by the publication, was accompanied by the "active support of the Russian Air Force and the Syrian Air Force."
As a result, previously lost positions at the height of Jabal Tar and the city grain elevators were again returned by government forces. However, so far there was no confirmation of this information from the Syrian command.
According to journalists, when attacking the Syrian army, Russian special forces helped, who, among other things, indicated goals for Russian helicopters.
