ISIS was booty in Palmyra

Yesterday ISIS managed to regain control of the historical city of Palmyra, which had been in their hands from May 2015 to March 2016.  The occupation horrified the Internonal Community because of the crimes commited against civilian population and the looting/destruction of historical artifacts. In the propaganda videos it is possible to see captured SAA vehicles.
T-72.

T-55.

 BPM-97 'Vystrel'.

Ural-4320. 

It remains to be seen if ISIS can keep the city under its control. The Russian Aerospace Force (VKS) has increased the number of sorties, up to 64, and the Syrian Army will try to regain the city.
