Russia’s early warning radars have detected the launch of two ballistic rockets in the eastern Mediterranean, Russia’s Defense Ministry stated. The launch reportedly took place at 06:16 GMT Tuesday.

The trajectory of the missiles is reported to have been from the central part of the Mediterranean Sea towards the eastern landmass.

The Syrian embassy in Moscow currently has no information on the incident.

DETAILS TO FOLLOW

but I'm pretty sure the U.S. doesn't have ballistic missiles in the carrier group.

RT btw is state-run in Russia...so wtf is going on with these reports?

report also came in from Reuters.

Against ko sa pag interfere sa USA didto sa Syria kay ang situation sa Syria is "civil" war and national in scope. Buot pasabot conflict within themselves ra ni. War is not the best solution towards conflict, but is a solution nevertheless. If NATO/UN can prove nga ang Assad Regime jud ang ni poison sa ila tao, then justice is needed. Assad will need to step down voluntary or by force.

Lahi ni ug situation sa China mu invade sa Philippines kay international in scope na. Even though dili mangayo ug tabang sa USA, ang UN security council mismo mulihok para tabangan ang pilipinas. Ang mga uban nation na ang mutabang nato.

Pero lets just say ato lang jud answeron ang pangutana in plain view by ignoring the above statements. Yes mangayo ug tabang, not only from the USA but to other UN/NATO countries nga mu abide sa international laws. Bottomline, Philippines can not stand on its own against foreign invasion.

Bai, please stop posting Conspiracy theories and fake links in this thread. It's very misleading. WE can agree or not agree on this intervention by the US, but please stick to official links and media.

unfortunately what you call official links or official media are the ones that are fake.. kindly broaden your mind gamay bai.. unless you are comfortable being uninformed..

seryoso ka?? You are giving comments sa akong avatar; "attacking" my avatar pic?

Kana picture has nothing to do with my views. It is simply a memorabilia nako kato nibisita mi sa ako uncle didto sa Bohol kato Brigade commander pa siya didto.

Ni comment ko dire para dili makiglalis but to give my insights about the situation. We all have different views.

Back to topic. I can not prove about Iran sending troops. Uwahi ko sa balita kay panagsa ra ko kabasa ug news. mas daghan pa siguro ka nahibaw.an nga detailed news kaysa nako. Please give articles nga nimention ana para kabasa pud ko, it is good to stay informed. Dili na ko mucomment further kay dili ko swito sa current situation. Ang uban na mu subay sa imo discussion kay daghan tao dire sa istorya.net nga kusog kaayo mangita ug kalalis

Useful and entertaining read about Syria. In case you didnt know the actors here. Feel free to research more on the cast mentioned if you have the time.

"So here, in a nutshell, we have the indispensable nation(US) that drenched North Vietnam with napalm and agent orange, showered Fallujah with white phosphorus and large swathes of Iraq with depleted uranium getting ready to unleash a "limited", "kinetic" whatever against a country that has not attacked it, or any US allies, and everything based on extremely dodgy evidence and taking the "moral high-ground". "

US, Israel and Quatar want to get rid of syria because of oil and nat gas. Israel and the US has been trying to cripple the economy of iran for a long time by denying them access to the oil markets. There is a pipeline that will be laid down that runs from syria, iraq, iran, pakistan then finally to china. Also, Iran is one of the most powerful in the region and no single arab state can take on them without suffering significant losses. US, israel and quatar just want to monopolize the region to themselves, that is all.

Russia and china can't allow these states to fall. Syria may not be that important to them by itself since it is still to far from their borders, however syria being associated with shiite iran just makes it complicated because should syria fall, iran is sure to be next.

With respect to SEA, china just wants to control the west philippine/south china sea. I highly doubt there is any oil under those waters, its probably a ruse by the US to stir things up and destablize the whole region. There was a report from MVP that was leaked by Trillanes that alleges that there actually is no huge energy reserves under that area(this was related to trillanes being a back door negotiator for the territory row with china). That area has been a subject of territorial dispute for a long time already why is it they just released findings that say there are huge energy deposits underneath the south china/west philippine sea? The oil exploration team obviously had something ulterior in mind.

I don't know what china gains by invading the philippines, although they have been extracting our mineral resources illegally with the collusion of corrupt officials, I don't see the need for china to launch a full-scale invasion into the philippines. Our corrupt culture is more than enough to convince them that they really don't have much to worry about in terms of out ability to strike at them defensively and incur significant damage.
