    But SAA keeps advancing

    While ISIS bleeds around Arak SAA will roll into DeZ from the northwest. So far so good I guess.

    I remember back when Russia jumped into this thing that one of the big issues was SAA's refusal to evacuate damaged tanks in order to repair them. They just expected new ones to be gifted to them every time they fuck up and run.  Russians had to beat the habit into them.

    Good to see it finally paid off. Most of this is perfectly fixable, especially pre-T72 stuff.

    Population comes first you nimrod.  And even if oil is such a big deal you still need to control population centers in order to legitimately claim control of neighboring resources.

    This is real life, not a video game. You don't get bonus point for Vespene gas.

    These assholes are using the same tactics as the Nazi's, they will do the same to anything they can get their hands on.


    Saddam Hussein would be more appropriate example in this case...

    I never said that population was not a major factor in Russia, SAA and Allies, going towards Deir ez-Zor. What I said was that the Gas and Oil fields were a huge part, along other reasons to why Russia, SAA and Allies were going toward Deir ez-Zor and Southern Syria(if they did not than US would have grabbed them first.)

    Saddam Hussein learned from the Nazis.

    If an American soldier working in Syria, like SeigSoloyvov claim to be, would be here giving fair information even of the frontline and would maintain pro-Russian positions here, for sure would go to the jail fast. This Is not the case, then something is not like he pretends to make us to belive.

    And when did he ever give us actual military grade intel?

    You have soldiers worldwide posting all sorts of stuff online from warzones, multimedia and all, and somebody will give a crap about stuff on some obscure forum?

    And why would ''pro-Russian'' attitude land him in jail exactly?

    Why do they need to use long range missiles, leave that to Russia. They could have responded in many other ways. Although this does send a message to the US and other countries in the Middle East.

    Do we know if it was shot down from the skies(air to air) or from ground to air? This is why SAA fighters need to be escorted by Russian SU 30SM or SU 35S armed with air to air missiles and with air to ground missiles.

    they are claiming US shot down the Su-22. Its very high time SyAF start shooting down coalition jets.

    Anyway, I applaud Iran's move. Launch those missiles.

    US SETTING UP MILITARY FACILITY IN TABQAH TOWN IN SYRIAN PROVINCE OF RAQQAH

    Syrian War: News #13 - Page 29 1-223

    According to local sources, US-led coalition forces have begun setting up a new military base in Tabqah town in the province of Raqqah.

    The new base will be located in the military housing area, the Mohammed Fares school as well as the military and security buildings in the third district of the town. US forces reportedly intend to build a command center and residential buildings for its troops. According to opposition sources, USA wants to adopt the new base in Tabqah town as a long-term base in Syria.

    Meanwhile, unconfirmed reports from Kurdish sources appeared arguing that a new agreement between the USA and YPG was made. The agreement will allegedly allow the US military to stay in the YPG-held areas for 10 years. In turn, the US will continue providing military aid to YPG. However, no official sources have reported about this.

    The Turkish News Agency Anadolu announced that Washington has supplied YPG and YPJ Kurdish forces in Syria with modern weapons within the last ten days. On June 16 , 50 trucks loaded with weapons arrived through Kurdistan Region border crossings. On June 5, 60 trucks loaded with arms arrived to the SDF-held areas. 20 more trucks arrived on June 12, according to the agency.

    According to the Anadolu report, the Kurds received: 12,000 rifles, 6,000 machine guns, 3,500 machine guns, 3,000 RPG-7 bombers and 1,000 grenade launchers of the AT-4 type produced by the United States and LNG grenades, besides near 235 mortar rounds, 100 sniper rifles and 450 7PV night vision sights.
