Those who study Bible prophecy see the Russian Syria alliance as very significant. Will Russia continue to use this front as an excuse to gain a stronghold in the middle east? What role will the other countries of the world play? Is Putin really a peacemaker? Time will tell.

October 1 - Russia said to send more warplanes to Syria, diplomacy 'on life support'

Fighting continued to intensify a week into a new Russian-backed Syrian government offensive to capture rebel-held eastern Aleppo and crush the last urban stronghold of a revolt against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad that began in 2011. Moscow and Assad spurned a U.S.-Russian brokered ceasefire agreed to this month and launched attacks on rebel-held areas in Aleppo in potentially the most decisive battle in the Syrian civil war.
