Russian Navy brings some of its most potent assets to bear against the terrorist forces in Syria as Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft cruiser and Admiral Grigorovich frigate join the campaign that began a year ago. Boasting a powerful arsenal of cruise missiles and combat aircraft, the two vessels started launching strikes against Daesh and Nusra Front targets in the Syrian provinces of Homs and Idlib.
