Russia says it bombed Islamic State targets near Syria's Raqqa

MOSCOW, Feb 17 (Reuters) The Russian Defence Ministry said today that long-range bombers had fired a series of cruise missiles at Islamic State targets around the Syrian city of Raqqa.
The ministry said in a statement that the Tupolev-95 bombers had taken off from Russia and flown over Iran and Iraq to get to Syria where it said they had successfully targeted militant training camps and a command point.
Russia carried out a series of sustained attacks on Raqqa in late 2015, but has since focused its fire power around Aleppo and other rebel-held areas.
