IS pushing again on the regime held airbase paving the way with SVBIEDs as dust storm swirls around Deir ez Zor.

Talk of the russians redeploying most of their flankers to try and stop their momentum (why not rebels are busy killing each other)
Edit also long range bombers

True but to be fair atgms will always trump tanks
U can be well trained to try and evade but if someone has a clean shot ur fecked
The old problem being u have to stick the tank in the firing line to some extent for it to be of use..otherwise might as well have left it at home.

Yeah they suck pretty bad. I'm really surprised they can hit targets from the air.




They're all shit heads though.

Syrian army captures Wadi Barada.

There is no where left important that the ''moderate'' rebels can pressure the Syrian goverment.

The war is winding down and Assad is not going anywhere.

So
-isis begin to besiege another regime airport in qualamon region

-fsa group jaish al izzah abandon peace due to constant regime and russian bombing..they began using heavy artillery and grads in northern hama last night.

- yet another group joins the new large tfs faction (the one with nursra in it)

-rumours persist on assads health
Regime sources switch from hes fine to that hes in hospital for mild stress related eye ailment
Other rumour is that its actualy a stroke or an iranian bodyguard failed assasination arttempt .....hopefuly its something painful like polonium.
Rumours again of 2 russian doctors flown in

-fsa and turks take steel mill west of isis held al bab

 

[whougonnacall]

-Talk of isis pulling outta al bab
That would lead to a wacky races style confrontation between regime, kurds and the fsa-turkish forces for the city

-the wild rumours persist assad has had mini stroke with blood clot but is now stable,was in lebanese hospital first then back to damascus when stable

-some of al shams groups and others pledge to the new tfs group ....seems sorta like a referendum on the peace talks is being decided by rebels voting with their feet,

-deit el zour seems stable at min , despite isis showing regine defectors front lines seem to have stabilized and same at t4 airport
