Apparently the Russians have flown more sorties in 3 days,
and inflicted more damage to ISIS/FSA than everybody else
combined since the insurrection started. Apparently no air
action yet by the PRC, although they now have a carrier and
guided missile frigate at the Russian naval base in Syria.

The Russians also seem to be able to avoid the hospitals.

I keep following this as much as I have time, and I do not yet
