In this and in another previous post we begin to see the first evidences of the use of a number of new enginering vehicles in Syria. Engineering vehicles for combat areas, and auxiliary unarmoured engineering vehicles. Concretely this is material based on Kraz tucks that seems to have been moved to Syria in the lasts months. This year has been probed in military training in Russia, and by now must be also finnished in Russia.

Likely to see in Syria TMM-3, TMM-3M, PMP-M, PPS-84, BMK-460 and PST-160 based on Kraz-214, Kraz-255, Kraz-260 and Zil-130.

Is that your guess?
I saw some reports months ago about pontons being transported to Syria.


And that ПМП from above is Syrian one if i am correct, not new from Russia.

US Aircraft Evacuates Over 20 Daesh Commanders From Deir ez-Zor

A military and diplomatic source has told Sputnik that a US Air Force plane had evacuated Daesh (ISIS, banned in Russia) field commanders from Deir ez-Zor. The US-led coalition has denied the allegations.
"Amid successful actions by Syrian government troops in the eastern part of Syria in late August, a number of field [Daesh] commanders backed by US special services, had been promptly evacuated from Deir ez-Zor to safer regions in order to use their experience in other directions," a military and diplomatic source has told Sputnik.

The source said that the first such extraction took place on August 26, a "US Air Force helicopter" had evacuated 2 Daesh field commanders of "European origin" with members of their families from an area located to the north-west of Deir ez-Zor at night.
According to his data, two days later, US choppers transfered 20 Daesh field commanders and militants close to them from an area south-eastern of the city of Deir ez-Zor to northern Syria.

"Militants who lost their commanders due to the Americans, usually tend to cease organized actions, leave their positions, join other [Daesh terrorist] units or one by one flee. This eventually contributes to the success of the offensive by the Syrian government troops in eastern Syria," the source said.

When contacted by Sputnik, the Combined Joint Task Force of the Operation Inherent Resolve’s press office has called the allegations "false."

Syrian Opposition Thanks Russia for 'Gift of Peace' as Deir Ez-Zor Siege Lifted by Gov't Forces
On Tuesday, the Syrian army assisted by Russia managed to finally break the three-year Daesh siege of the city of Deir ez-Zor, with food and ammunition only being delivered to the city by air, while helicopters from the city of Qamishli had been evacuating the wounded and delivering essential supplies to the city's population.
When commenting on the successful operation on Tuesday, the Russian Defense Ministry said that Russian strikes on Daesh terrorist group's positions, including today's frigate's strikes with cruise missiles from the Mediterranean, allowed the Syrian Armed Forces to break the 3-year siege of Deir ez-Zor. The Russian strikes conducted simultaneously by aviation and a warship destroyed Daesh fortified areas, undergound tunnels, artillery positions and ammunition depots near Deir ez-Zor.

The Russian military called the Deir ez-Zor victory the most important achievement of the Syrian army during the 6-year war.

Russia and Israel allies

Russia and China not
Russia and India not
Russia and Iran not
Russia and Belarus not
Russia and Venezuela not
Russia and Syria not
Russia and ... not

Basically Israel is the alone ally of Russia (and also maybe Turkey and South Korea, WTF). Even one of them said used the word "reliable" one time.

They even were deleting comments here about Israeli attacks to Syria because were not real. Until Netanyahu accepted publicly they were doing it around approximately March of 2017.

So weird.

I never saw them reported as part of the Syrian Armed Forces until today, despite to be specially interested in the presence of engineering vehicles in Syria. Can you post the links?

So as already said, this operation is well planned, long time ago. Maybe that helicopter landing by Tigers were just training for landing on other side of Euphrates, who knows.

No, that is 30km away. And it is not Iranian factory, those are just Israeli claims.
