Late on July 20, Russian air defenses intercepted two unidentified drones which attempted to attack Hmeimim Air Base on the Syrian coast.
“On July 20, 2022, at about 10:10 p.m., Russian air defense systems detected unmanned aerial vehicles approaching the area of the Russian Khmeimim airbase from the northeast,” RIA Novosti quoted Russian sources as saying.
The source said that drones were shot down two kilometers away from the base. The failed attack didn’t result in any casualties or material losses.
Russian media suggested the drones were “makeshift” and didn’t pose a real threat. They were likely launched from the northwestern Syrian region of Greater Idlib, which is occupied by al-Qaeda-affiliated Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and several Turkish-backed factions.
Hmeimim Air Base, the headquarters of Russian forces in Syria, is protected by a multi-layered air defense network. Several S-400, Pantsir-S and Tor air-defense systems are known to be deployed at the strategic base.
HTS manufactures and operates several types of makeshift drones. The terrorist group launched drones at Hmeimim Air Base on several occasions in the past. Almost all previous attacks were a complete failure. The July 20 attack was the first such attack in a long while.
The failed drone attack on Hmeimim Air Base will not likely go unpunished. The Russian military is already working to prevent militants in Syria from developing drones. A series of Russian airstrikes that hit Greater Idlib on July 12 destroyed an underground drone workshop that was reportedly being operated by HTS.

Russia has fought and defeated 30 NATO faggot cowardice ridden scum and another dozen of so Americunt asslickers and came out on top. The Russian army is now the most battle tested and successful military in human history.
What I don’t understand about their strategy is why setting up long lived conflicts. In Syria the political situation is overcomplicated, but in Ukraine is not. Yet they are using the same playbook.
And it is not because they don’t have the military means to kill a Zelensky or two. It is their strategy to create this low level conflicts and maintain them active for long time.
Maybe this is to bleed the murican empire. A multi-front attack ( economic, financial, military, cyber ). It seems to be working, because the western masses are reaching a boiling point very fast.
Ukraine is a non entity and most of its Slavic Orthodox population is supporting Russia. A Russian airstrike just destroyed one of the largest NATO assholes weapons depot in Nikolaev. Local residents reported a series of violent explosions throughout the night in warehouses, moments now visible on video. After the attack on the warehouse in Nikolaev, the SBU began looking for saboteurs who had passed the exact coordinates of the object to the Russian military.
The British evil criminals and their dumbass Americunt poodles could not find a single Slav in Ukraine to do their bidding and that is why they are keeping the corrupt Jew faggot Zelensky in the Warsaw embassy basement to keep on the Slavic fratricide. Zelensky is a joke and even the South American economic summit today even rejected his video appearance. Russians have done wonders as they have captured a region the size of Italy in mere 15o days and very minimal cost. Ukraine is finished as even as a failed state as it has barely 19 million people left.
South america is not in a circus like the lgbts terrorists nazis izzil of disneygaylandia !!!
Maybe explains why they gave the ziolensky the middle finger the other day too!
The boiling frogs method, they fall asleep while being slowly cooked and then cannot jump out of the pan. Give them enough rope to hang themselves as they are slowly cooked and run out of everything. When Russia turns up the heat, there are no weapons left, the mercenaries and special forces are kaput, the populations of those making war on Russia are PISSED, We also do not have vast gas reserves to fall back on during the winter. It would be IDIOTIC of Russia to allow us to increase our gas reserves over the winter WHEN we are waging are on them.
You may want to see this article, if you have not seen it before … changes are a happening in Syria; big ones as well, it seems. https://www.globalresearch.ca/damascus-kurds-align-militarily-face-turkish-threat/5787225
Thanks Bob. I like reading Globalresearch. It is a Canuck site and does good analysis. Pepe Escobar is also very good and wrote about the highly successful Iran, Russia and Turkey summit in Tehran this week. Russian position on Syria is now simpatico with Iran and hardening against the Zionists and Turks. Erdogan is a opportunist and trying to manipulate both the west and Russia, but will fai as Turkish economy is bankrupt with 120% inflation and 40% unemployment. Turkey does not produce either food or energy and will starve if its starts a war against Syria.
Let’s hope so! They (plural of “IT”) DO DESERVE STARVING 10000 TIMES FOR ALL THE EVILNESS PRODUCED!
“The political future we offer for them is the political future we offer for everybody in Syria” – a stake in “a democratic, peaceful government” based in Damascus, Jeffrey added.
What kind of political future is that? Having trannies and Queers teaching young children? What else, has the USA to offer, except more suffering and more servitude and more thieving?
Sorry unsubscribed by accident (few beers !), so it took some time to reply. Well personally as a Brit and a once patriotic and Nationalistic one at that – you set the rules, any Yank or fellow Brit or or … that crosses the line – they are out or worse … but in general I meant the internal population and neighbours and I think Putin was right = stop, peace, negotiating table, some sort of power sharing ???, some sort of autonomy for regions ??? … Your Country, whatever is best for it. Just for people that did not know, did you know that Russia had its own – I call is state (maybe an enclave), but whatever; but Jewish state ???, for Jews, run by Jews ??? .. my point is not against theJews, my point is that is can work… or I believe so.
we impotent hillbillies are expert sperm consumers. we use drone designed by pygmy scientist
wasn’t him(her??) a rasta drug addicted self proclaimed scientist? HAHAHAHAHA
Hit turkey for allowing HTS to do it
If the West can kill your soldiers in ukraine with impunity using by drones and missiles while keeping their planes and operators safe behind the borders of poland and romania why would they not do the same while deeping their plnaes and operators safe behind the borders of turkey and israel.
You intited this by your appeasement to the west. As long as they believe they can do all this without consequences for them the western elites will never stop.
Drones are useless against Russian air defence(period)So westi elite queers are desperate,big deal.
Russia will complete Turkeys new MASSIVE nuclear plant by 2023,elite queers now really desperate!
