The Russian Aerospace Forces conducted several airstrikes over the northern countryside of Hama, yesterday, following an attack by the jihadists on a Syrian Christian town. Russian jets flying out of the Hmaymim Military Airport reportedly launched over 15 airstrikes over the northern Hama towns of Kafr Zia, Zakat, Lataminah, and Latmin. Prior to the retaliatory strikes, the jihadists launched several artillery shells towards the Syrian Christian town of Mhardeh, which agitated the Russians because they currently have forces there.
