Started with protests in Daraa in 2011, the Syrian conflict rapidly turned into a war with a number of foreign powers supporting various militant groups (including al-Qaeda-linked) against the government of Bashar al-Assad. Since then, the country has been a point of instability in the Middle East.
Russia began a military intervention in Syria in 2015 after an official request by the Syrian government for military help against militant groups.This allowed the Syrian government to survive and to regain initiative in a battle against Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Jabhat al-Nusra, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda), ISIS and other militant groups.

To the people of Southfront:would it be possible to make a joint Syria-Iraq map? Since ISIS doesn’t recognize the Sykes-Picot borders, such a map would give an even better view of the situation.

In my modest opinion, the pro-Syrian government international coalition, led by the Russian Federation and Iran, needs new additions in real terms – more effective miltiary involvement.
Both Russia and Iran have been involved substantially in the war against global terrorism and have lost brave servicemen. It is rather awkward that Moscow spends so much for combating the Daesh and affiliated anarhist militant cells in Syria and, at the same time, is subjected to economic sanctions by the Western international community.
…
I believe that countries commited to and credible about fighting terrorism, such as: Egypt, Belarus, Kazakhstan, the powerful China and, (to a certain extent), India and/or Pakistan could send small units of special forces or logistics (sappers) units to the aid of the SAA and the NDF. This should be mainly necessary for the fight against Daesh (IS) in Eastern Syria, around Deir Ezzor, the Jordanian border and to South of Raqqah.
