Russian Warship, Submarine Fire Four Cruise Missiles At ISIS Targets In Syria

A Russian warship and submarine fired four cruise missiles from the eastern Mediterranean at Islamic State targets near the Syrian city of Palmyra, the Defense Ministry said on Wednesday, as reported by CNN and Reuters. The strikes targeted militant ISIS "shelters" east of the ancient city, which housed heavy equipment and militant troops transferred from the Islamic State's capital of Raqqa.
