what s happening in Syria
Islamic State has called on its “youth” supporters world-wide to launch a “Holy War” against US and Russia in retaliation for their “crusader’s war” on Muslims in Syria.Russia has hit “most” of Islamic State [IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL]’s targets, including ammunition and vehicles as it continues anti-terror airstrikes.Calling on “Islamic youth everywhere, ignite jihad against the Russians and the Americans in their crusaders’ war against Muslims,” ISIS spokesperson Abu Mohamed al-Adnani said in a 40-minute-long audio message posted online.
Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) second-in-command, Abu Mutaz Qurashi, was confirmed dead by an IS spokesman on Tuesday. “America is rejoicing over the killing of Abu Mutaz Qurashi and considers this a great victory,” IS spokesman Abu Mohamed Adnani said in an audio record published on jihadist websites. “I will not mourn him… he whose only wish was to die in the name of Allah … he has raised men and left behind heroes who, God willing, are yet to harm America,” he added. Qurashi, whose real name is Fadhil Ahmad Hayali, was announced dead by the US near the city of Mosul on August 18. He was described by the US as “a primary coordinator for moving large amounts of weapons, explosives, vehicles and people between Iraq and Syria”

An air safety draft to come into effect during bombing operations in Syria, drawn up by Russian Defense Ministry, has been forwarded to its US counterparts, the Russian Defense Ministry reports. Russian air-to-surface military operation in Syria began September 30 at the request from the Syrian government. The Syrian Army, backed by Russian airstrikes, has advanced significantly since then.
It is unclear what the US is doing in Syria and why the results of its actions are so insignificant, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told NTV. “We have very few specifics which could explain what the US is exactly doing in Syria and why the results of so many combat sorties are so insignificant,” he said. “With 25,000 sorties one can blow out the whole Syria,” he added. Russia launched its anti-IS military operation in Syria on September 30, at the request of the Syrian government. The US believes that Russia has the wrong strategy, supporting Syrian President Bashar Assad, and does not want to cooperate with Moscow.
