'Don't make it worse for yourselves': Helicopters drop leaflets on ISIS and rebel fighters warning them to give up now ahead of huge Russian-backed ground offensive
Flyers are aimed at both civilians and fighters, and warn them to leave area
One says leave 'special operations' zone ahead of possible ground attack
Another urged ISIS and rebel fighters to give up their arms
Moscow's warplanes have been conducting airstrikes on Syria for six days. softening up targets ahead of an expected large-scale ground operation
Syrian army helicopters have dropped tens of thousands of leaflets on ISIS and rebel fighters, warning them to get out now and 'don't make it even worse for yourselves'.
The flyers were let go over the embattled cities of Rastan and Talbiseh, which have been pounded by Moscow's warplanes this week and where Russia claims 5,000 ISIS and al-Nusra Front terrorists are stationed. 
It came as Russian media said there would soon be a large ground operation in the area driven by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's troops - with Russia's military backing from the air and possibly on the ground, involving Spetsnatz special forces.
Iranian troops are said to have crossed the border from Iraq last week to help prop up Assad's ailing regime.

Dire warning: The leaflets (pictured) being dropped by Russian jets warn people to get out of the zone of 'special operations' - and one implies that terror group al-Nusra Front are backed by America and Israel

A pamphlet aimed at civilians, and designed to look like 'religious literature', read: 'Co-operate with the army and leave the zone of the special operations for the sake of your own life.'
It said they can travel through Syrian checkpoints safely with the leaflet, and the government will give them 'shelter, food and medical aid'.
Another one, meant for ISIS fighters, said: 'Don't make it even worse for yourselves.
'The Motherland [presumably Syria] is ready to hug you back again. Give up your arms as hundreds of other young guys like you have done.'
