2024 Syrian opposition offensives - The first Syrian rebel offensive against Government forces since March 2020

[World in Scarlet]

There's a lot of uncertainty around the edges of the good ones too.
Like a settlement was announced captured but there's no evidence, while there's videos showing troops in a settlement only to later find out they were just driving in, saw enemies, and drove out again. So you need to wait to see what happens, and by the time things are better established in one place, new places are uncertain.

Big fighting has allegedly started on the outskirts of Hama

I'm gonna be the devil's advocate but why do people sperg out at "Kurdish freedom fighter feminist guerilla" being taken prisoner? She isnt stripped naked, isnt raped, surrendered, IIRC when enemy surrenders you restrain the hands or any appendages and take it away to some out of combat area. Am I missing something here? The Anti Assad forces are predominantly male, and...People just think Kurds are sunshine and rainbows and every mountain nigger of theirs is a pure Womyn of Color Freedom Fighter who fights for a Free Democracy?

Google, just fucking google "PKK Child fighters", and stop sucking Xewal dick because their feudal landowners decided to bend over for Uncle Sam when the Cold War swung westwards. Most Kurdish wealth stems PURELY from what Hamidiyah Brigades' slaughter and robbing of Armenians around the spicy 1900's times. Most of these "female fighters" are merely cannon fodder whose "honor were soiled" and thus discarded from family. And yes, cousin marriages and donkey-fucking are notorious in Xewalistan.

Kurds are no different than us, or Arabs, no matter how Shlomo from Tel Aviv or John Richard from the Burgerland paints them to be.

Lots of conflicting news in the last day or two. Assad's people claimed to have retaken Khanasir, as-Safira (war equipment production factories) and stabilized the front around Hama, rebels obviously deny all of the above. I've seen video of rebel fighters in as-Safira (claiming to be besieging some SAA remnants left behind in a housing complex there, and they aren't being shot at in that video so the situation probably favors them - supposedly they're working on a deal to let said remnants evacuate so they can take the complex without further bloodshed) so at the very least it seems the bit about the SAA having retaken as-Safira isn't true. Khanasir seems more doable as IIRC it's closer to the SE edge of Aleppo governorate and thus the remaining SAA lines than as-Safira, but I haven't seen footage or photos of the SAA back in there yet.

The situation around Hama seems wilder still with the city's outlying villages changing hands constantly in the last 48 hours or so, gov't supporters claiming that there's no way the city is going to fall anytime soon and rebel supporters saying ackshually Assad's lines are imploding and their victory is fast approaching. Don't think there's any way to determine who's telling the truth until the fog of war clears up a bit, personally to spare myself the confusion I think I'll just check back tomorrow or the day after when the dust will have (probably) settled somewhat.

Edit: Also, the Israelis have killed Hezbollah's SAA liaison officer in Damascus. (Archive)

Can someone compare these Syrian cities to American cities/towns?

Shlomo here, we don't care for Kurds either. You're thinking of Gary from London instead. Or whoever from Langley.

No you get Anglo cities instead; Aleppo is Manchester, Hama/Homs are Sheffield/Leeds.
Not really comparable though because of the big fuck off desert on one side and the anarcho syndicalist utopia of Lebanon on the other, add in the k*rds probably sitting this one out and there's only one way to go; drang nach Damascus!

 

[Falcos_Commisar]

Damascus is NYC/plus DC

Aleppo is LA

Hama is Chicago, Homs is Pittsburgh

That's about it

Probably NOT the fantasy ones published by Russians

are u ok m8?
seems like a weird thing to fixate on when "aggregating a medium between opposing maps" is a thing.

not unless.... you're a fed, perhaps?

Pro-Assad, pro-Russia and anti-West influencers are lying to further their political aims and farm their audience by telling them things they won't hear from "government controlled media" (because they're made up).

Militants from the Al-Shaheen Brigade unmanned aviation unit, part of the HTS, publish footage of quadcopters dropping ammunition on infantry and positions of the Syrian army, as well as the use of FPV drones on T-55 tanks and the Gvozdika self-propelled guns (the installation did not receive a direct hit).

The video includes footage of militants assembling FPV drones, printing components for them on a 3D printer, and training pilots in simulators and in practice.

The future of war is here: Even Derka Derkas and GLA wannabes have 3d printers and use drones like fucking Valorant.

I wish I didn't live to see that.

Looks like the kind of warfare that has evolved in Ukraine.

Looks like the kind of warfare that has evolved in Ukraine.

The IS pioneered drone usage back before it was cool. I don't know whether there's anything we've seen that needed Ukraine.
That being said, a few months ago Ukrainians claimed responsibility for an attack on a Russian base near Aleppo.
Whether that actually happened, IDK. The tuareg photo was edited, IIRC.

In May 2023, HUR chief Lt. Gen. Kyrylo Budanov promised to “destroy Russian war criminals anywhere in the world they may be.”

Pentagon: In eastern Syria today, US aircraft destroyed multiple weapons – including truck-mounted MLRS and a T-62 tank – after Mission Support Site-Euphrates, a key US base in the area, came under mortar fire.
@PentagonPresSec says incident was not linked to situation around Aleppo in NW Syria

All in all with my Kurd bashing, I hope Barzani succeeds immensely in Iraq. He seems to be the only Kurdish leader I know with IQ above the room temperature, may he succeed with least ethnic uprooting and be something of an Atakurd.

I hope.

do you have learning difficulties or something?

not being a dick or anything, but i'm not so sure Wagner can make that call rn.
they're all a little tied up in Mali, CAR and Belarus at the moment, but if there's anything to say this Syria call is so, then I'm more than willing to read and learn accordingly.

as it would make perfect sense for a PMC with an axe to grind with the region, unfinished business so to speak.
