Syrian opposition sources claimed that ISIS fighters attacked the SAA in the T-2 station 70km west of al-Bukamal. However, these claims were not confirmed.

Meanwhile, pro-government sources said that that the SAA, Hezbollah, Iranian-backed forces and some units of the Tiger Forces are preparing to launch the final phase of their attack to retake the remaining ISIS-held part of the western bank of the Euphrates. The upcoming attack of the SAA will be critical for the victory over ISIS. A large number of ISIS fighters and leaders will be besieged in the Homs desert if the attack succeeded.

zio satanic terrorists are forever losers – the deepest perm hell will be their final abode together with their masters and supporters

The Russians have been making bomber runs in SE DE almost every day for weeks. That adds up after a while. Once the Syrian government coalition closes the riverside gap to create a new contained pocket. The war will enter a new phase with a transition to clearing contained interior and border pockets. Including the NE SDF area.

I’m anticipating that the government footprint growing while the regime change and secessionist element’s footprints shrink, isn’t going to change. And that government administration will progressively be reestablished in these areas as they’re cleared and secured.

Nobody listens to you, RD.

Your hatred of truth is your problem not mine.

batavian01

Apparently you are wrong.

SAA is slowed down by the gargantuan amounts of weaponry they keep capturing from ISIS…

dutchnational

Seems to me they lose more to IS and opposition both as in destroyed and captured then they capture themselves. SAA losses amount to several tanks daily as of late.

Mikronos

They’re operating in some classic tank-killing (people-killing, too) territory. It’s a wonder they have any left.

dutchnational

At some point they will exhaust their supply of older tanks. Will Russia supply new ones in sufficient quantities?

PZIVJ

So you believe all HTS and Amaq reports?
Your head is full of BS propaganda for sure. :(

Solomon Krupacek

amn

dutchnational

Even pro SAA sources admit to severe lossess, both men and materiël. Tiger forces admitted tot losing 250 or so last month.

Gregory Louis

Yeah cause 6-7 years of straight civil war wouldn’t cause you to lose most of your stockpile

dutchnational

Acc to sources Syria once had over 3k tanks. They must have lost most of them by now.

batavian01

Your guess? They “must have” according to who? You and your bud at SOHR and that rabble at Amaq?

Gregory Louis

That has got to be the most ignorant statement you have made so far on Southfront divide all those tanks into their proper catergories are they all MBT’s fair enough even then you have weapons ranging from the T-72, T-62, T-55/54’s and more, equipment switches hands and equipment at the beginning of the war was captured by different rebels groups who also switched hands at it and add ISIS to the mix too so we don’t have an exact number of any Syrian equipment until the war’s over….plus Russia has sent them replacement tanks from the T90A tanks to the T62m’s…..”they must have lost them by now”…. lol guess you don’t watch news from the frontlines unless its Al-Qaeda or ISIS propaganda huh…

batavian01

According to Amaq News Agency?

Hezbollah86

There is big chance that Al-Baghdadi is there, that’s why they add so much effort in offensive instead of defense and run off.

Kira Binkley

Was there a sighting?

Bolter10

Who said ISIS is defeated?

PZIVJ

First photo is a guy aiming at a brick wall 10 feet away. seriously? :DDDD
The map I checked shows that ISIS only holds the villages of Al Siyai and Al Hasrat on the western side of the river (just N of Bukamal). After that SAA will clear the desert to the west, I think the operation will be completed within 10 days.
GO TIGERS GO (now to IDLIB) :)

Eskandar Black

ISIS almost finished, cooked kurdish savages, coming up.

Solomon Krupacek

gustavo

ISIS ATTACKED ! did anybody say that ISIS was death already ? Yes, Russia is in a hurry to leave Syria, even it terrorism is highly active using suicide bomber, or sudden appearing somewhere.

PZIVJ

But who is saying Russia is going to leave Syria ?
They have signed long term leases for 2 bases along the coast.

Solomon Krupacek

He can’t help it, he was born that way.

Eskandar Black

Putin said Russia would reduce the size of the troops deployed there, which makes sense. Russia is not leaving Syria. Solomon is just a cowardly propagandist polluting the internet with his lies.

Ricardo Ramos

LoL
