Five days after the downing of the Su-25 aircraft by terrorist rebels in Idlib, the Russian Aerospace Forces have switched to using their advanced Su-30 and Su-35 jets in Syria.
According to the military source, due to the small number of Su-30 and Su-35 jets in Syria at the moment, the Russian Aerospace Forces have temporarily halted air operations above some parts of the Idlib Governorate.
Most of the Su-30 and Su-35 jets were withdrawn from Syria after Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to the Hmaymim Military Airport in December; however, they are preparing to bring them back after the downing of the Su-25.
