Syrian army struggles to keep in Deir-ez-Zor

159
Another attack on the position of the Syrian government army in Deir ez-Zor was launched today by the terrorists of the so-called “Islamic State” (prohibited in the Russian Federation). The first two attempts to break through the defenses were repulsed by Syrian troops. During one of the attempts to break through, ISIS lost at least 70 militants killed, Syrian troops about 20.

The igilovtsy decided to carry out the third attack through the territory of the Deir-ez-Zor cemetery, where, as reported, the Syrian troops were least prepared for this. From about 12: 00 (MSK), the militants began storming positions in the area of ​​the airfield, which is currently controlled by the SAR army. The airfield is a strategically important object in the province, as through it not only the city itself is supplied with food and essential goods, but also its defenders weapons and ammunition.



If you believe the reports of Syrian sources, all day in the Deir-ez-Zor area, the Syrian Air Force and the Russian Aerospace Forces airplanes delivered rocket-bombing attacks to ISIS terrorists, trying to prevent those in control of the airfield and city blocks. As a result of one of the attacks, the field commander of the igilov group, Naji al-Musalimah, was eliminated.

The Syrian contingent in Deir ez-Zor is experiencing great difficulties, as ISIS terrorists use tactics of attacks from several directions, involving at least 3 armed groups in each attack, which are constantly replacing each other. As a result of the offensive to the militants, despite opposition aviation, for the first time in several months, managed to capture several positions of the Syrian army on the northern perimeter of a military airfield.

The actions of the airplanes of the SAR and VKS Air Force of the Russian Federation in this situation were complicated by the proximity of the positions of ISIL to the government forces. According to some reports, attack helicopters were connected to the air operation, the rocket attacks from which allowed the ground forces of the SAR to repel the territories occupied by terrorists in the Deir ez-Zor area. Bloody battles continue in these moments.

Syrian army struggles to keep in Deir-ez-Zor


The main task, which, apparently, the militants are trying to solve is to cut the Syrian troops and take several territorial positions at once in complete encirclement.

        There was no miscalculation, it was just logical that someday the crisis would come. The enclave is far enough, it is problematic to break through to it, the supply is also lame.

            What do you want? Let Assad play humanism more, taking out doomed militants from boilers in Damascus and Aleppo on buses at the request of the west. A strange war, reminiscent of the first Chechen war. Instead of destroying the enemy, they release him for some reason, in addition with weapons. and then you see, a difficult situation at the front. Maybe this is something I do not understand?

                It is clear that someone else, but Assad for some reason this allows. Generally strange. To wage war for four years, when absolutely everything is at stake, to allow such things. So Assad does not own all the fullness of power, even if then everything is thrown into FIG and not steamed.

                Assad does not play humanism, but retains his strength from losses in street battles. Not so he has a lot of them.

          Well, now they cut off the airport and all that part, from the desert part. This is the worst situation since the beginning of the siege. For helicopter pads inside the perimeter are already shooting through.

          Black has now issued a message / appeal - every woman will get his house and wife in DeZ. So there are decisive battles. Nowhere to retreat. This is not Palmyra, here either to stand or die, there are no other options.

            In general, a strange time was chosen for the operation near Deir ez-Zor: they have Raqqa in 20-35 km from the front line with the Kurds. That feeling. that the Kurds (US-led) gave time to Daesh to conduct a major operation elsewhere, as if letting the latter understand that the right bank of the Euphrates is theirs.

              so the Kurds got up there a long time ago and the matter is partly in the USA. They simply don’t trust Turkey or the Kurds. The United States promised that Turkey wouldn’t, but Turkey entered. Therefore, the Kurds are afraid to move, because they are afraid of a surprise strike by Turkey, and Turkey can sharply increase its a group of those fines that Al-Bab hang out with.
              Therefore, the Kurds will not move anywhere until they receive clear guarantees about the neutrality of Turkey, however, I can’t imagine how to make them believe it. Erdogan can change his mind 3 times a day.

                You see, I am more and more inclined to believe that the joker (supposedly Kurds) on which the United States and the West have bet is gradually transforming into something more than "Kurdistan". The US wants to "marry" the Kurds to the rest of the "democratic forces" in Syria.

                Therefore, if the Kurds "bite the bit" in the right direction, the US (and others) will think about guarantees.

                  There is no Kurdistan itself, there are enough resources and human resources also, they live compactly and occupy not normal desert, but normal lands.
                  Even the Prime Minister of Turkey Erbokan talked about what is happening with the Kurds, that the United States and the West will create Kurdistan next to Turkey and start swinging inside. And this was back in the 90s.
                  And now we have a de facto and almost de jure Iraqi Kurdistan with a flag with an army of institutions and economic ties with the outside world.
                  Syrian Kurdistan is also de facto, not as explicit as Iraqi, but there is.
                  Tomorrow, Iran will also be rocked.
                  Won stable Syria has turned into that.
                  Who would have thought that Turkey would destroy 3 of its cities in the fight against terrorists.

          And where is Assad? In the end, they are fighting not for Assad, but for their own Syria. Assad is just a leader. Just as ours fought, by and large, not for Stalin (although the slogan was, and of course, Stalin was the leader), but for their country and their families.

              I think the negotiations in Astana will show this.
              Assad had to be removed earlier, putting in his place one of the moderate Alawites.
              Now this is not real. And with 70% of the Sunni population in Syria there is nothing to be done.
              those Syria will decay completely.

                You can’t put Alavite in place of Assad. Instead, you can put the Sunni president, and make Alavite vice-president. All the noise, due to the fact that 12% of the Alawites ruled the country for 50 years and took all the bread places to their hands.

                When I wrote that Assad needed to be cleaned 2-3 years ago, a whole division of sofa setters headed by Elena Gromova wrote me down as terrorist accomplices. It was necessary to remove him then. Now, even after removing it, the meat grinder is unlikely to stop. Too much blood has been shed. And in the East, blood feud is still held in high esteem.
                Even if Assad defeats all his opponents and remains in power, anyway, some kind of enemy will eventually arrange an assassination attempt and kill him. That's the East.

    if I’m not mistaken, the card just turns out to be a boiler, which was split in two. If it’s so (it’s impossible to confirm or refute, because the battles are still ongoing), Deir-az-Zor is doomed purely to the military, as well as the airfield.

        But here the question is not so much about people - how much about ammunition, equipment, food, and just about the level of control. Disorganization is clearly not observed, as well as a shortage of resources. The fact that ISIS took in warehouses in Mosul was supposed to end long ago (especially ATGM regrets), but they don’t have such a problem in principle. Where does this holiday of life come from? The Syrian army has less marching pts than ISIS. And no one asks the question where they all come from. And the main question is who plans and performs military operations. I do not really believe in stories about the brilliant officers of Saddam who moved to ISIS, because Saddam's army could not boast a tenth of such successes, as ISIS does. And again - no one cares where they got such resources from (well, or cares, but only specialists).

Even if we discard target designation from Western intelligence agencies, it is clear that ISIS needs victories to invigorate adherents. And in the current situation of victory, and even over the Assad Army - this is the best for their sponsors and for themselves. Nothing can be fixed now by bombing.

It seems like a trifle, but with oil and gas. It is not in vain that the USA and the West bet on them. When bidding begins on territories (and it is possible that the Democratic Forces of Syria will be the only alternative to the United States and the West), then the CAA will bite its elbows about every square kilometer lost.

    On the map 3 hours ago, the barmalei cut the SAA positions into 2 boilers, the south-western part under the cross-cutting fire, reinforcements with armored vehicles are still suitable from Mosul. Not in terms of panic, but let's look really - there will be no help anymore. There is no one to come in the next 3 days, there is nowhere to dump the cargo. In a day, the balance of forces will not be better than 1/4. Guys are heroes, no doubt. For Syria, this is its own Brest Fortress. But this garrison was always on the verge.

    Assad does not play humanism, but retains his strength from losses in street battles. Not so he has a lot of them.

    In fact, one of the ways to win is to dismember a large group of the enemy, surround him, deprive him of the ability to resist and, if possible, destroy it. And do not let out of the environment with weapons that they would strengthen other sections of the front. This is contrary to any logic. Why release if tomorrow you still have to face him? Will you save a lot of your strength? We are now observing this on the other hand, only Assad soldiers will not be provided with such conditions, the best they can count on is a quick death. In another embodiment, it is torture and ultimately the same death.

It's just that Assad is under pressure from the plague "community of democratic states", you know who is at the head. What leverage they have for this, I do not know. Maybe traitors surrounded by Assad himself. In any case, Assad has nothing to lose. In case of loss, at least, it is to share the fate of Milosevic (who, like the president, did everything to save his country), at most, this is the fate of Gaddafi.

      So then it is. Just let’s clean. in the presence of a huge number of boilers, the length of the front line reaches simply an incredibly indecent length. This is despite the fact that Assad does not have an army in sufficient numbers, not just professional fighters, but just fighters. Assad relies on agreements with the militia, which, in conscience, often has nothing to do with Syria and submits (like Hesboll) to foreign governments. Simply put, there are no and will not be resources for all these environments and finishing offs, unless Ryazan and Pskov guys go on the attack. Therefore, the only option left is to save the remaining forces, to reduce the front line, to negotiate as much as possible, and not to bend only towards the Alawite clan.

          It is not necessary to present one situation, especially from a different perspective, as in the situation in the CIS countries.
          They have an interval. Dad had his term and GONE, had a son and GONE.
          And in our countries, no one leaves and everything in the country does not belong to the family and its environment.
          If we take the clan of the Aliyevs, Azerbaijan’s independence has been in power since 1993. Already 24 years old !! And if we take the leadership of the Azerbaijan SSR from 1969 to 1982, if I’m not mistaken.
          But the clan is still in power and the President is not old and there is a successor.
          Therefore, it’s not necessary to compare all of this with the Bushs who were presidents and after the deadlines have passed and who did not crush the entire economy of the country, as is happening in Azerbaijan and other countries.
          The explosion of the situation will be only a matter of time and the power itself, which turned into a Dynasty, and themselves into the Sultans, will be to blame.

                What a long way to go. And the military career of Bashar al-Assad?
                1994 year in a car accident. The tragedy occurred when Bashar al-Assad was in London, where he studied at the residency specializing in ophthalmology and eye surgery [10]. After the death of his brother, he returned to Syria. Bashar al-Assad entered the military academy in the Syrian city of Homs and in 1995 in the rank of captain, he already commanded a tank battalion, then headed the Republican Guard [11]. In January 1999 years he was awarded the rank of colonel [

                in 1994 he entered the VVU (which is called the Academy there) and for 5 years (we have time to finish the VVU and get a lieutenant during this time) - he is already a colonel
                but in a year
                Hafez al-Assad, who ruled Syria for 30 years, died on June 10 2000 years from heart failure. The day after the death of the Syrian leader, the Acting President of Syria, First Vice President Haddam, awarded Bashar Assad the title lieutenant general and appointed him supreme commander of the army.

                So, for 6 years from the ophthalmologist to the commander-in-chief and lieutenant general --- maybe that's why he fights so well?

And if in Azerbaijan, the "dissatisfied people" decide to overthrow Aliyev, then rest assured that this is another job of the Western special services. The states will not even hide this, and will explain this with another tale about the protection of human rights and democracy. And it will be the same as in Ukraine.

          They care about everything, only depending on the significance for them, they pay more or less attention to this. The Karabakh status quo suits them and defrosts would suit them, but they bear risks and the dividends received will be minimal. Well, Azerbaijan will become stronger and what ?? So far, they have no use for this. Therefore, passivity there is a double attitude. In Ukraine, these are sanctions, and in the case of Azerbaijan, well, let the Armenians occupy what.
          Does this only run counter to the fact that the West is to blame for corruption, nepotism and lawlessness in the former Soviet Union? Did the West bring Aliyev, Rakhmon or Nazarbayev to power? No. Did the West give all sectors of the economy to ruling families ?? The West gave Rakhmon’s son the rank of general at 26 years? And many other charming.
          Once again I say do not confuse the cause with the investigation. All this is a product of the authorities. And the West skillfully plays on this with various arguments when they need it. That's all. But it is not a source of corruption and lawlessness of the power elites.

    Let's be honest: Deir ez-Zor does not interest Russia from the word at all. This is a problem for Assad personally. Damascus is politically important, as the capital, Aleppo - also politically, as the largest city in the country, Palmyra - as an advanced outpost, protruding far into the desert. But by and large, only Latakia is strategically interested in Russia. By analogy with the Ukrainian crisis, the Russian Federation was only interested in Crimea, but not in the Donbass with Odessa and Kharkov. The supply of Deir ez-Zor has always been problematic, and it does not bring any benefits (unless Russia is going to fight ISIS until the victory and assault of Raqqa with the 1st Guards Tank Red Banner Army - and Russia is not going to do this at all). It sounds cynical, but Deir ez-Zor will have to die, because it is more useful to the dead than alive. Or does someone doubt that in the government of the Russian Federation there are hardcore cynics, and not idealists with a humanistic worldview?

      yes not so little. The entire war in Syria before this went neither shaky nor roll. Both sides (like ISIS and everyone else in one heap of currency as enemies of the legal regime) had boilers and rebellious enclaves on their territory and didn’t really take a steam bath about this. Arabs, they are Arabs. And for the United States and its allies, this situation was even better, and they had full confidence that they had calculated their plans well there and were quietly implementing them. And the longer the war, the better .. But when Russia stirred up this tangle, the situation became incomprehensible to everyone and everyone stirred. In addition, the successes of the Russian Federation in terms of the liberation of the territories, too, all the forces forced to cheer up and start fighting again for real. We all see that the ISIS warriors are quite motivated and, in general, they know how to fight quite decently. Therefore, after all, one should have expected active actions against Deir ez Zola, or the SAA should have launched a powerful attack on the blacks in order to divert their forces from this enclave. In general, it was necessary to attach the initiative to the process.
      Now we can say that this enclave can be said to have crushed black. Only a miracle that cannot be seen can save the Syrians. And if everything ends badly, it will be a much more serious blow to Assad than the surrender of Palmyra. Here the barmalei mock heartily .. Losing the thousands of garrisons along with the peacekeeper is a very serious puncture of the Syrian command. And there’s almost nothing to help them. Bombing on scattered carts that are not stupid and cling to the contact line to the maximum and hardly anyone can tell right now where exactly the front line goes .... We can say that everything is bad there and the prospects for improvement are not visible. But Russia is to blame for this last thing. Although that should also prompt and see the future, but the fact that you say that the Russian Federation is not interested in anything other than Latakia is stupidity. A series of defeats can actually lead to the fall of Assad. and then you won’t have to think about any Latakia. This is now happening before our eyes, a tactical and strategic failure, which somehow could have been foreseen and prepared, but what is happening is happening ...

    Syrian troops launched a counterattack in the area of ​​Deir ez-Zora and Palmyra

    According to the Syria TV channel, Syrian aviation and the Russian air forces provide air support to government forces

    BEIRUT, January 17. / Corr. TASS Dmitry Zelenin /. Syrian army fighters and militia units launched a counterattack and are trying to regain their lost positions on the outskirts of Deir ez-Zor (420 km from Damascus). According to the Syria TV channel, the troops drove the terrorists from the Islamic State group (IS, banned in the Russian Federation) from the military airfield in the vicinity of the city and are advancing in the direction of the Tell Brook and Jebel es-Surda hills. According to him, air support for government forces is provided by the Syrian aviation and the Russian Aerospace Forces.


    The fighting is taking place in the Madinat-Ummal microdistrict on the outskirts of the city, on the outskirts of Rassaf, El-Makabir and Panorama, where the gangs of the IS have leaked, and also at the bridge on the highway to Raqqa. The troops managed to regain control of the road from the city to the military airfield, where the main outpost of the army and militias is located. The threat of encirclement by the enemy airbase removed. There are reports of large losses in the ranks of the IG.
    The assault on the airfield and the city blocks under the protection of the Syrian army began on Saturday. A representative of the SAR Supreme Command said that reinforcements had been deployed to Deir ez-Zor in advance. Terrorists seized army posts in the suburbs of Mukhendisin and entrenched in a number of suburbs.
    The electronic version of the Al Watan newspaper reported that the Syrian army has also begun an operation to regain control of oil and gas facilities on the outskirts of Palmyra. It involves 10 thousand soldiers and the special formation "Desert Falcons" ("Sukkur es-Sahra"). The command of the Syrian Armed Forces has set the task of dislodging terrorists from the Jezal, Ash-Shaer and Mahr fields, which were captured by IS gangs at the end of last year. According to Al-Watan, the Chief of the General Staff of the Syrian Army, General Ali Ayyub, personally inspected the troops before the start of the operation.

      As the newspaper VZGLYAD previously reported, terrorists are losing ground near Palmyra.
      On January 16, it was reported that militants from the Islamic State * faction took Deir ez-Zor airbase into the ring.
      he Syrian Arab Army launched a large-scale offensive in the eastern countryside of Homs last night, targeting the area around the T-4 Military Airport and eastern outskirts of Quraytayn. Led by the 800th Battalion of the Republican Guard and Shaheen Group of the Tiger Forces, the Syrian Arab Army liberated a large area around T-4 Military Airport, and cleared much of the territory around Tiyas village
      Last night, the Syrian Arab Army launched a counteroffensive in Homs province, attacking the positions of the Islamic State terrorist group northeast of T-4 airbase and east of Karyatein city. Led by the 800th Republican Guard Battalion and the Shahin Detachment from the Tiger Division, government forces recaptured significant territory in the vicinity of the airfield.
      A successful attack allowed the units of the SAA to begin the assault on enemy positions in the Jazal mountains - for the first time since losing control of them in December last year. To date, no information has been received about any progress in the Jazal region, despite the rather rapid advance of the army in several other directions. The main goal of the first phase of the CAA offensive is access to gas and oil fields. As soon as it is reached, government troops will begin directly to liberate these facilities from IS terrorists

      For those who believe that only ghouls and Jews can fight, on purpose. Hello to the closet.

    If it will be hard for the army men to be cut and you should not surrender to the igiloids. may be able to agree on a "golden bridge" for the army to leave the cauldron if it gets really bad.

    Already cut. You can’t imagine a worse situation.

    For you, yes, it couldn't be worse if you cut Israel in half. But this is not Israel. You are sewing the wrong measurements. Golden Wardrobe Just don't bury it ahead of time. Look you kaktostrophe in Hebrew, cut, oh horror. Fearfully. But under Holmes they went on the offensive, while the bearded fuck under "Deir" and pulled their forces there.

    The tactical situation near Deir reminds me of a bait suspended in front of a bearded muzzle. And one wants and pricks to shame and the shame that the dosi hang and cannot take. This situation infuriates them. And when the enemy goes crazy, take advantage of it and need to wrinkle it - it will certainly make a mistake. If only the French and partners did not interfere.

    Yeah . They know how to fight ghouls.

    Do you hear the closet And why didn’t you hang it next to it? The date is the same. What, a Jew, did not notice? What at the same time we push the bearded at the source of water for Damascus? What is your chosen Aronchik, how do you filter information in a special way. Only ghouls and Jews know how to fight? The miracle you are slippery, my friend. What is more important: water for the millionth of Damascus or a piece of desert with stones? So trust the Jews later, but be sure to check - they’ll fool around how to give. But what to take with you - a nation of merchants. Once again I am convinced - without conscience, shame and moral principles.

    The Syrian army inflicts a crushing blow to militants in Wadi Barad.

    ISIS confirms:

    Fierce clashes between SAA and ISIS's fighters in the vicinity of Junaid brigade and the cemetery to the south of DeirEzZor.
    - In the immediate vicinity of the Junaid brigade (geolocation) and in the cemetery area south of Deir ez-Zor, there are fierce clashes between the SSA and ISIS.

    и

    Daesh send many fighting groups from northern Raqqa to support clashes in DeirEzzor
    it’s clear that Daesh’s capabilities are not rubber.

    In Aleppo, we release thousands of militants, where else will they go ... Here is the result, we will wet the ruthlessness already ..!

    What's the connection? "Greens" left Aleppo, and "Blacks" left for DeZ.

    Why are you Cho, that is, there is a difference who will cut the head? Black or Green? I wonder who would prefer the Golden Cabinets
