Russian military says special forces officer killed near Palmyra: agencies

A Russian special forces officer has been killed near Syria's Palmyra, a military representative at the Russian base in Syria was quoted as saying by Russian agencies Thursday. "An officer of Russian special operations forces was killed near Palmyra while carrying out a special task to direct Russian airstrikes at Islamic State group targets," the unnamed representative said, without giving the date of the incident. "The officer was carrying out a combat task in area for a week, identifying crucial IS targets and passing exact coordinates for strikes with Russian planes," he said. "The officer died as a hero, he drew fire onto himself after being located and surrounded by terrorists," he said.

So you're claiming that was about a lost nuclear weapon?

Any evidence for that?

A fairly short documentary on Russian Special Forces - FSB. It is in the Russian Language, but has english subtitles. But it is a good video.

Spetsnaz has come along way since the 70s and 80s.

"Broken Arrow" is not only a movie with John Travolta and Christian Slater, it is an actual......or was, a code word for a lost nuclear weapon.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if one day far from now classified info came out that a missing/stolen Russian nuke was in ISIS hands and that's what happened here....that they found it....then bombed the guy who found it to destroy both.

Only Russians really fight ISIS, the West makes nothing against this gang.

Broken Arrow.

I was referring to Broken Arrow, a request for all available air support to his site.

Hal Moore called for it in la drang in Vietnam.

We Were Soldiers, great movie.

Broken Arrow was a code term used in Vietnam when an American unit was surrounded and about to be overrun. It meant all available air assets were to cease their missions and go to assist the surrounded unit. It did not mean bombing the unit.
