Russian heavy bombers return to Iran for Syrian operations!
TEHERAN, Iran (PNN) - April 13, 2018 - According to media sources close to the Iranian government, Russian heavy bombers are once again permitted to operate from Iranian military airfields.
The development comes after an agreement was reached between Russian and Iranian high-level military-diplomatic officials. It gives Russian bombers the right to transit Iranian airspace and use at least two Iranian military airports for refueling. The development is most likely a response to recent Fascist Police States of Amerika threats against the Syrian military - a close ally of both nations - following an alleged chemical attack in rural Damascus.
The information of development also comes after two Tu-95 and two Tu-22M heavy bombers were noted to have left their permanent base in Russia for an unknown destination.
During mid-2016, Russian Tu-22M bombers temporarily used the Iranian Hamadan Airbase amid a major bombing operation against Islamic State forces in eastern Syria.
