The so called Free Syrian Army (FSA) rebel faction released a statement online claiming to have killed two Russian troops in a TOW strike on a government-held position in northern Hama, a governorate located in central Syria which recently witnessed the deployments of the Russian military police.
The ‘Central Division’ of the FSA claimed the anti-tank missile, produced by the United States, hit a gathering of Syrian troops at the village of Rahabet Khattab, supposedly killing two Russian tactical advisers as well.
YemenExtra News could not independently confirm the FSA claim. Moscow is yet to address the alleged attack and loss of personnel.
