The Russian military has fired multiple cruise missiles from its ships in the Mediterranean aimed at the Isis stronghold of Raqqa, according to reports.

US officials were quoted by the Reuters news agency as saying Russia had launched a "significant number" of strikes in Syria using both sea-launched cruise missiles and long-range bombers.

Possibly air-launched Kh-55 family (AS-15 Kent). Russia produced conventionally armed variants. Possibly launched from Tu-160/Tu-95?
