This is likely Syrian news but that is a heckuva picture.

Russian jets pulverize ISIS positions inside Deir Ezzor
By Leith Fadel -07/12/2016

BEIRUT, LEBANON (4:35 A.M.) - The so-called "Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham" was given a rude awakening on Wednesday morning, when several Russian jets hammered their positions in the Deir Ezzor Governorate.

The Russian Air Force began their aerial assault on Wednesday morning by targeting the Islamic State's defenses along the Thardeh Mountains, scoring direct hits at points 1 and 2.

Following the airstrikes at Jabal Thardeh, the Russian Air Force carried out a powerful assault at the Thayyem Oil Fields and Electical Station, destroying two technical trucks armed with anti-aircraft machine guns, while also killing and wounding more than 20 militants.
