Cruise
missiles launched by the Russian Navy hit a number of ISIS targets in
Palmyra, Syria, Wednesday, according to Russian state media.
The

ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa, according to Russian news agency Sputnik,
citing the Russian Defense Ministry.
"The

launch of four Kalibr cruise missiles from the eastern Mediterranean
against the targets of the IS (Daesh) terrorist groups in the area of
Palmyra," the Ministry statement reportedly said. "All targets have been
