The first ten Russian Sukhoi (Su-24) fighter jets arrived in Iraq on Saturday, the country's Defense Ministry said. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is hoping the jets will make a key difference in the fight against ISIS.

"The fighter jets landed today in the morning on different military airfields," MP Abbas al-Bayati told Iraqi media.

The official spokesperson for the Iraqi Ministry of Defense, Mohammed al-Askari, also confirmed the information, Al Iraqiya TV channel reported.

The fighter jets will be stationed at an airbase located in the southern part of the country, PressTV reported, citing military sources.

Earlier this week, Prime Minister Maliki revealed that Iraq purchased jets from Russia and Belarus in order to help its fight against Sunni militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS/ISIL).

At the same time, Maliki criticized the US for taking too long to deliver on its own contract after Iraq purchased F-16 jets from America.

On Friday, Iraqi Air Force Commander Hameed al-Maliki confirmed the shipment of MI-35 and MI-28 Russian helicopter fighters to "keep the momentum" in the attacks against ISIS, Ruptly reported.

The commander said that he signed three contracts with the Russians and stressed the importance of the choppers as "excellent anti-terrorism weapons."

The radical Sunni Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS or ISIL) has taken large parts of the country's north from the Shia government.

Hundreds of Iraqi soldiers have been killed by insurgents since the Sunni militants began their offensive on June 9, according to Iraqi forces.

The United Nations says more than 1,000 people – mainly civilians – have been killed during the surge thus far.

Mkuu nasikia wamechukua pieces za madege yaliyokuwa decommissioned na kuyapaka rangi halafu yametumwa Iraq, ni mkataba wa zamani kati ya serikali ya Saddam na Russia.

sukhoi 24 haijawa decomissioned bado iko on service na wamewahisha kwani wangetaka mpya ingechukua mda hata mwaka wakati zinahitajika haraka baada ya wamerekani kuanza kujivuta kudeliver F-16 ambazo irag wamezilipia siku nyingi.

Advantage ya sukhoi 24 ni speed yake kiasi kuwa huwezi kuipiga kwa manpad.

what american say about this.
When Snowden was on the run it
was Russia that stepped up and
offered asylum. Putin didn't
cause the leaks and isn't exactly a
paragon of transparency but he
saw a perfectly good opportunity
to play the hero. Without Putin
reddit's hero Snowden could
very well be rotting in jail right
now since there are few
countries with the willingness
and clout to protect him from the
US.
When the pro-western maidan
revolt turned Kiev against him
Putin turned it right back on
them. The new government was
in chaos and had no control in
the early days. This allowed Putin
to stroll into Crimea, plant a
Russian flag, and tell Kiev to get
out all without firing a shot.
Nobody was there to stop him
because Ukraine was in such
chaos. It's funny when you
realize that if the maidan revolt
had never happened then
Ukraine would still control Crimea
and the eastern regions. Putin
wasn't going to outright invade
Crimea and fight an actual war
but he'll definitely take it if you
offer it to him on a silver platter.
Maidan was like an early birthday
present for Putin. He got the part
of Ukraine he really wanted and
cut subsidies to Kiev in one fell
swoop.
Now in Iraq the US has refused
to help. Maliki formally asked for
military assistance and was
denied. It's Iraq's first real crisis
on its own and we bailed on
them. We left them without even
having a proper airforce. So
again, Putin sees an opportunity
in expediting some jets and
helping the Iraqi's get flying
again. He's going to do in a week
what the US failed to do in a
decade and Baghdad will love
him for it. They are going to be
relying on Russian arms in the
future. Once they finish up with
ISIS in Iraq you better believe
that they're going to go into
Syria and finish the job. They
won't just stop at ISIS either,
they're going to crush the US
funded rebels as well and secure
Assad. Iraq, Syria, Iran, and
Russia are going to toast to their
victory while the west ends up
sidelined.
It's interesting to watch because
he is such an opportunist. He'll
kick you when you're down, help
you when nobody else will, or
spite you just for a giggle. But
he's not going to run out guns
blazing. He'll wait for that
opening and by the time you
realize what he's up to it's
already too late.

Thank you very much. Well noted!
Putin is a strong intelligent leader ever.
