The truck presumably came over the back roads from the takfiri suppliers in Turkey. The launcher and rockets look to be in very good condition - as new? Is it possible to identify the country of origin from the markings on the wooden crates used to transport the rockets?

To small resolution to read for me but guess no 1: U-crying guess 2  Bulgaria/Poland or  remaining pro US-puppet EE regimes

Turkey is just a coward nation, hiding within their own territory and nato.  If Syria was in a lot better condition, they would shell back, but right now, no.  And so long they dont hit Russians, nothing Russia can do either.  They would have to wait till Turkey and Saudi Arabia to violate Syrian territory first.

An exchange of fire between two armies is exactly a war. Doesn't matter if border is crossed or not. Bullets and shells fly. People get ripped apart. If that is not a WAR, then I don't know what is.

This shelling is only the start. Over the next few days, expect the shelling to intensify. Once casualties are in the hundreds on both sides, maybe the border will be crossed.

This is not North Korea and South Korea. This is about Erdogan the new sultan, a die hard Islamist. Koreans are afraid of death. Islamists are not afraid of death. They believe it is an honor to die for Allah.

Turkish artillery shelling at the Syrian positions enabled the jihadist groups recapturing two villages previously captured by the Syrian army.

One source claims that an entire company of Syrian soldiers were killed by the Turkish artillery shells in Latakia province.

Turkish intervention (well, aggression) proved to be successful and now Syria, Iran and Russia have a problem. Turkey can seriously harm the Syrian army (and the Kurds) by shelling them from their own territory in the northern parts of Syria. Turkey does not have to use their own aviation and go into Syrian air space to reach at least some of it’s goals in Syria.

In order for Syria, Iran and Russia to take out the Turkish threat they would need to take out the Turkish artillery positioned in Turkish soil. That would be seen as a serious escalation by Turkey and the West and would give them a reason for further interventions in Syria (and maybe even attack the Russian base in Latakia which is within the reach of Turkish artillery).

This is a very complicated and difficult position for Russia, since Russia cannot afford a full scale war with Turkey and on the other hand Russia cannot afford Turkey to cause more serious casualties for the Syrian military.

Then hundreds of Syrian missiles have sam coordinates. jut wonder if Russia delivered some Tochkas or only Iran did.

BTW Putin cannot resign yet in 2018 elections to hot period. It is not about his desire to be on power but Russians need a symbol to unite and times are coming hard. Dyumin is yet to be popular to win.

Turdkey is indeed populated by retards with the most refined fraction composing their leadership.   Let's suppose that the idea behind
this shelling is to push the SAA back from the border and allow Turdkey's terrorist proxies retain easy access into Syria.  This is clearly
a nonsensical idea since all that will happen is that there will be an artillery free fire zone between the SAA positions and the Turdkish
positions.  This no man's land will be useless for the terrorists and for Turdkey.  

Turdkey will attempt to invade Syria to secure territory large enough to be of use for its terrorist proxies only if Uncle Scam gives the
green light.  It seems Uncle Scam is dithering.   So there is a high chance for a false flag to lubricate the propaganda narratives and
"justify" an invasion to "save the children".   Russia has made it clear that it will punish any invasion of Syria.  This makes it difficult
for Turdkey to just invade on a whim.   I am waiting for some village to be slaughtered by an air attack in the coming days.  Of course
NATzO will blame Russian jets and not jets operating out of Turdkey.    This will be a Racak moment when the US will rush to the
UN to present its "case" and have Russia tagged as an aggressor against Syrian civilians.  

I think Russia needs to act now.   Waiting for this false flag is a stupid idea.   Now that Turdkey is shelling Syrian territory is the time
for Russia to take its case to the UN and give Turdkey and its NATzO patrons an ultimatum.   Russia needs to make a scene in order
to derail the false flag.   Making a big stink about bombing Turdkey will create enough of a diversion and shit storm that Russia will
set the agenda and not Uncle Scam and his dirty tricks.
