The technological gap with the US is astounding. Photos from Raqqa, Syria, with US surgical strikes on IS trenches (2017).

Based on the craters, it looks like these 2 impacts were from ballistic missiles, presumably Iskander-M 9M723 missiles. The poor accuracy of Russian precision-guided munitions seems to be one reason why the Ukrainian Air Force wasn't immediately destroyed. The runway looks ok.

Breaking. First visual evidence the US Special Forces lost an helicopter during the raid carried out last night in area of Atmah (Greater Idlib - NW. Syria). ID of the target remains unconfirmed.

Assad massacred in Syria, incl. with worst torture techniques, 1,000s of Palestinians who didn't worship him. It includes 650+ children & women. Still ongoing in Seydnaya prison. Remember this when you'll see pro-Assad propaganda. Full report:

Russia is still supplying own & Assad's death machines but at a much slower pace. Syrian Express ships need a 3-week voyage to bring military supplies from Kaliningrad enclave to Tartus port. It's the result of Ukrainian naval warfare in Black Sea. Source:

Ukraine seriously degrading the Syrian Express (supply of weapons for Russians & Assad in Syria). After several large landing ships were neutrazlized, now use of naval drones in the Black Sea considerably limits Russian movements. Source: . Thks @Rebel44CZ .

Russia started to use thermite ordnance last night in Ukraine (L). It was regularly used in Syria to strike areas escaping Assad's control (R). Delivered either by 9M22S Grads or RBK-500 ZAB 2.5CM bomb, thermite has so high temperatures (over 2,000°C) it can burn through steel.

Russia trying to score points in Syria, in conjunction with its embarassing losses in Ukraine amidst failure of Avdiivka Offensive. Below it's Greater Idlib & Moscow is unleashing its firepower in absence of any air defense threat.

Unprecedented. Protestors burning down Assad's portraits after they took control of the Governorate Building in center of Suwayda today. Unrest due to deteriorating living conditions not new, but publicly removing the dictator's symbols is a whole new level.

Not much left of the ships Moscow sent to Syria in September 2013, in show of force after Assad's troops killed over 1,000 people in E. Ghouta with sarin. Those ships were sunk one by one by Ukraine.

Kind of unexected spillover. Last night Ukraine neutralized with a naval (suicide) drone a Russian oil tanker which supplied main Kremlin death machine in Syria (Russian Air Force) with jet fuel. Boat (SIG) is afloat, but engine room is flooded. Spotted in May on Syrian Coast👇

Not fireworks but incendiary ordnance. Last night Assad's forces struck town of Darat Iza with thermite. It can reach temperature over 2,000°C & it's dropped on residential areas. Won't make headlines, but it's what's happening in Syria with Russia's help

And while Baath Party complains (only for Gaza) about use of incendary weapons, Assad's forces quietly dropped thermite last night on Kafr Noran village (W. Aleppo - Syria). No outcry here.

Baath Party from Homs suddenly recalls "white phosphorus" is an internationally-banned weapon if dropped on civilian settlements. This is Assad's party whose army & their ally Russia use countless incendiary weapons to strike Greater Idlib towns (Syria) since years.

5 years ago Assad & Russia launched the Offensive to capture besieged E. Ghouta (E. Damascus, Syria). It was preceded by a week of blind & merciless bombardment on Ghouta's towns with all kinds of weapons, which killed & wounded 100s of civilians.

The very first Russian landing ship involved in the Syrian Express & neutralized by Ukraine was the Saratov (Black Sea Fleet). Ship was destroyed on 24th March 2022 with a missile strike on Berdyansk Port. She was active to supply Assad's forces, via Tartus port, since 2013. #1

For years Putin used Wagner mercenaries to act unofficially for Kremlin interests. In Syria, he replied to US "those aren't our troops" during assault on US in Khasham (2018), prompting USAF to wipe out Wagner-led column (photos). Putin's strategy is now backfiring.
