When Russia launched an air campaign to support Bashar al-Assad, it was banking on a ground force of Syrian troops to finish what its warplanes started.

However, more than 12 weeks later, Syria’s army and the large numbers of Shia militias that back it have made few meaningful gains on the ground. Meanwhile, Moscow’s jets have added a new layer of carnage, reportedly killing at least 600 Syrian citizens, including 70 in Idlib on Sunday.

In Syria’s north and in opposition-held parts of the cities of Hama and Damascus, the destruction wrought on civilian infrastructure and population centres over the past fortnight is more intense than at any point in almost five years of war, residents of the communities and observers outside Syria say.

Meanwhile, the US has claimed that a once-broad gap with Russia over how to end the war has been narrowing, with both sides last week championing a peace process that aims to defuse a conflict that has killed at least 250,000 people and left Syria in ruins.

Syria's running low....

People don't understand that Russia is not only fighting IS. They are fighting to keep the new gas line from going throu Syria. Assad is helping Putin by denying passage of this new line. Why? Because Russia holds Europe under the grip of energy. The new gasline ends that grip. Assad, a friend of Putin, protects Russia s financial interests by saying no. Is is a secondary problem. Anyone that threatens Assad's rule for that gasline..Europe, Syrian rebels.....America...face world war, because Putin is just as money hungry and control hungry as the rest. Russia is not helping Syria. Russia is helping Russia. As always.

IS must be removed at all costs. It's apathy that caused a small radical group to suddenly become the third riech and caused immense destruction on the scale of millions.

The world failed when they didn't stop North Korea. When they were small time, they were like ISIS. Then they became official and millions of people suffered as a result.

People are being slaughtered in this region ... it is just cruel, unfathomably cruel how humanity continues to play its hands at black politics to pillage resources at the expense of innocent lives. End can't come soon enough for us.

Only 600? Thats a very good result, considering the frequency of russian air strikes.
