Initially, most of the Russian attention was on the northwest of Syria. But guess who dominates that area? Jabhat Al-Nusra, AKA Al-Qaeda in Syria. So it was in a way nice of the Russians to attack those that did so much harm to America don't you think?

With regards to Palmyra, as already noted it is located in central Syria to the east of Homs. It was also a major stronghold that with the aid of the Russians the Syrians have been able to take back. So kudos to anyone that's effectively able to take ISIS on.

@OP - If true, a brave act by the soldier and RIP regardless.

To the hundreds of ISIS minions that were just erased during the liberation of Palmyra, rest in pieces :)

Look, it's a fact that Russia entered Syria and attacked the anti-Assad rebels, but knowing the importance of propaganda and PR war, they sent around 10% of their bombs at ISIS and made sure to point every single one of those attacks to the Western media. Lets put this one to rest once and for all - in Syria, Russia is not fighting on the side of the West. They have their own agenda that's contrary to ours and no, they are not helping us. We are pulling the line against each other and despite the fact that we're not shooting at each other, Russia and the West are on the other sides of this war.

Listen, If next bomb will explode in Warsaw, will it be so important for you who blow it up, Al-Nusra, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, DAISH or some other name made up by media?

And YES, Russia don't fight on the side of West in Syria. Russia fights on its own side. And I think thats normal. You know, if country is independant, it has its own international agenda. Unlike former USSR-minions, who dropped one dark master to serve another one.
