STRIKE FROM THE CASPIAN SEA
-
Citat:
What caused the necessity of our missile attacks from the Caspian Sea? Was it coordinated with Iran and Iraq
?
– Yes. I talked about this at the briefing. We coordinated the flight of our missiles beforehand with our partners in the coordinating committee, which includes not only Syria, but also Iran and Iraq. And the necessity was caused by that we discovered on October 5th and 6th some very important objects, which were subjected to pinpoint attack. Our aircraft were already assigned to other objects that had been reconnoitered earlier. Therefore, the decision had been made for cruise missiles attacks.
–
T he Pentagon claims that 4 rockets either blew up or did not fall there. What do you think of this information?
– The Pentagon could claim anything and everything. Let them show something, though. All of our missiles hit their targets.
Citat:
You just said that ISIS groups are changing tactics, and going into hospitals, mosques, and settlements, and dispersing. Do both the General Staff and the Syrian army understand that they also must change tactics, so as to more subtly root out the terrorists from there? What it is necessary to select new “tools”?
– We have a rather large set of methods and means to affect ISIS, taking into account this tactic, without impacting in any manner mosques, or hospitals, or the peaceful population.

Citat:
The USA Secretary of Defense is threatening us that one of these days, the Russian group will suffer large losses. What is this – is he threatening us with what the Stingers can do? How do you read this statement, doe it sound like a threat?
– We have read this statement as a manifestation of non-professionalism of the highest order. A serious politician cannot permit himself such statements. All the more, as he is talking about allies victorious over Hitler in the Second World War (one would like to remind him of that). Well, whatever he meant, let that remain on his conscience. Remember how Lev Tolstoy answered Leonid Andreyev: “He tries to scare me me, but I am not afraid”.
Citat:
How is the situation at the moment on the Syrian front? What are we doing, and what are the Syrians doing?
– We continue to carry out our tasks. Since the operation began, we have completed more than 600 sorties.

Citat:
Why did the USA react so spitefully to the launch of our “Calibers” from the Caspian Sea?
– Because they absolutely missed the sea-based cruise missile salvo.
– And why?
– Because all their capabilities, about which they speak as if they were limitless, are just a fairy tale for children.
