News from Syria: Assad continues his offensive

How wonderful it is that the USSR/Russian Federation gave Syrian youth and military personnel the opportunity to study in our country and learn the Russian language. Now, in the era of electronic communications, anyone interested will be able to find people in Syria who can talk in good Russian about the events taking place there. Here I present a short overview of the fighting in Syria with a link to the Syrian news agency SANA and additions from Syrian bloggers.

Recent reports indicate that Assad's army, with Russian support, continues to develop its offensive.

Thus, a military source said that the Syrian Air Force destroyed a terrorist hideout in the Qalamoun region of Damascus province. Terrorist military vehicles were also destroyed in the Gleib At-Tor and As-Sayad areas of Hama province.

aleppo

In the north of Aleppo province in the areas of Al-Jabbul, Huwayjina, Telal-Alam, Al-Sabain and An-Naam, the Syrian Air Force destroyed several shelters of ISIS terrorists.

Hama

In the province of Hama, army units killed 31 terrorists of the so-called Jaysh Al-Fatah, closely associated with the Erdogan regime in Turkey.

In the areas of At-Tamanaa, Skeik, Kafr-Zeita, Kafr-Nabuda, Al-Mghir and Atshan, the army eliminated a large number of terrorists along with their weapons.

Sources in the Sahel Al-Ghab region reported clashes between takfiri terrorist groups in which 7 militants were killed. In addition, on their pages on social networks, the terrorists acknowledged the death of field commander Muhammad Radwan Al-Hussein and deputy commander of the so-called “60th Division” Muhammad Marwan Al-Faraj.

Homs

In Homs province, with the support of the Air Force, army units pursued ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra terrorists in the areas of the Al-Shaer oil field, Umm Sakhrij, Jub Ad-Jarrah, as a result of which dozens of members of gangs were killed.

Syrian aircraft carried out strikes on militant hideouts and positions in the Tadmor, Al-Karyaten, Jbab Hamad and At-Tafha areas.

Daraa

In the city of Daraa, in the Daraa Al-Balad quarter, military personnel carried out a precise operation against the hideouts of Jabhat Al-Nusra terrorists, destroying a mortar installation, destroying and wounding many of them.

In the province of Daraa in the village of Atman, strikes by the Syrian army against the shelters and routes of movement of terrorists caused them significant losses in manpower and equipment.

In the village of Mahadja, based on intelligence data, militia units ambushed the local leader of Jabhat Al-Nusra, Ayman Yusef Khatba, who was eliminated.

Deir ez-zor

In the east of the province of Deir ez-Zor in the settlements of Al-Jafra and Al-Mukhasan, the army, in cooperation with the Syrian Air Force, struck clusters of ISIS terrorists, neutralizing 64 killed, including 4 foreign mercenaries, and many of them wounded. In addition, an armored car and a truck with weapons were destroyed.

Local sources reported that after the recent killing of 5 ISIS leaders, the terrorists are demoralized and at a loss.

Please note, this is a report on the actions of the government army and air force, whose actions have been intensified many times over as a result of the powerful support of the Aerospace Forces, electronic warfare and military intelligence of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. As they say, good luck! Russia helps those who help themselves.

Radio interception data is also being received, from which it follows that terrorist groups are experiencing an acute shortage of ammunition for active combat operations. True, American sponsors came to the rescue and dropped so-called weapons and ammunition from transport planes. "Syrian Free Army". The piquancy of the situation is that the leader of this very “moderate” “free army” just recently announced an alliance with ISIS. What should have been proven: the “moderate opposition” and the frostbitten terrorists differ only in the names of the Basmachi gangs. From which it inexorably follows that these terrorist bedbugs should be crushed with a combat forged felt boot, without making any distinction. Allah will sort it out.

Information appeared in the Turkish press about the alleged purchase by affiliated structures of the Russian Defense Ministry of four dry cargo ships for the delivery of T-72B and BMP-2 tanks to Syria from the port of Novorossiysk. There is a photo of T-72B tanks in desert camouflage. In this case, Russia has nothing to be ashamed of: assistance is coming through the official line to the legitimate government of the Syrian Arab Republic. Syrian tank crews have been fighting with T-72 tanks for a very long time, they have mastered this vehicle well, and there are no questions here. BMP-2s showed excellent performance back in Afghanistan, and the old ladies in Syria won’t let you down either.

Helping the Syrians with armored vehicles is no less important than air support, because over the four years of war, terrorists, with the help of supplies from Saudi Arabia and Turkey, have greatly reduced the fleet of military equipment of the Syrian army. Fortunately, at long-term storage sites in Russia there are more than 72 thousand T-7 tanks of various modifications alone.
