Syrian army repelled IG attacks on Deir ez-Zor

ATS government forces, supported by the Syrian air force, repelled attacks by the Islamic State terrorist group * against the city of Deir ez-Zor from Macabir (an area of ​​the old cemetery), the agency reports SANA with reference to a military source.

According to the agency, the defenders of the besieged city eliminated all the militants who participated in the attack on the position of the army. SAR Air Force aircraft destroyed the strongholds and equipment of terrorists in the Tallet-Baruk, Maabar al-Kanamat, Makaber and Tell-Allush areas.

The city of Deir ez-Zor and a military airfield two kilometers from it are in complete surroundings of terrorists for more than three years. A few months ago, the militants managed to cut off communication between army soldiers in the city and the air base, RIA reports News.

Despite regular IG attacks * with the use of suicide bombers and mined cars, the Deir-ez-Zor garrison continues to keep its defenses, occasionally counterattacking the terrorists. Food and ammunition military and civilians receive only from the air. Unlike the situation at the air base, helicopters from the Kamyshli can fly into the city itself, evacuating the wounded and delivering basic necessities.

We remind you that earlier Syrian government forces regained control over the four oil fields in the racca and deir ez-Zor provinces.

It’s a pity that they could not establish the permanent use of the Iranian airbase Hamadan, it would be a great help to the defenders. If you succeed in unlocking the DRZ, you can safely assign the city and the garrison the title of a city-hero. Probably there has not been such a long blockade and battle for the city since the Second World War.

[cniza]

It really should be studied and paid tribute to the defenders.

[Maz]

At waronlain, Russian Israelis compete in reproaching the actions of the Russian army in Syria, the SAA and Hezbollah. Strange, but they seem to position themselves as smart, especially approved and brilliant. Probably someone was wrong. Either the interpreter or the performer

[Mavrikiy]

Good, good .... but what will Varvara Petrovna say (or Sergeyevna? Skliroz, however)? ISIS is being destroyed, but the USA has nothing to do with it? Not fair, and not by rank. The chiefs rule, and if someone, something, then there is a shortcut. (Well, so lower the “captain of the universe.” He was so inflated through a straw ... Not good, sir!)

[padded jacket]

In time, the SAA sent reinforcements there, I hope the city will be liberated in the near future.

[210ox]

Unfortunately, the immediate prospects are unclear. The government forces will not have enough strength to attack. They would keep the liberated areas .. But it will be like in Palmyra ...

Let's hope that there is enough from the Tigers to the city about 60 kilometers left.
Although, as the Nusra terrorists write, they stirred and launched an offensive, and the SAA will inevitably have to transfer part of the troops there.

"Tigers" is an elite brigade. And it is one ... For the whole of Syria .. All other parts, well, so as not to offend Deira’s defenders, not ice. And they have nowhere to go, either to fight or die with their families .. There militia ..

"Tigers" is an elite brigade. And she alone

In vain do you think so:
5th Assault Corps of the Syrian Army

The Desert Falcons Brigade

4 Panzer Division CAA


You can still bring the units of the WG and some other units with "acceptable" training and weapons.
Although of course the bulk of the SAA is the national defense and various units of "pilgrims"

[210ox]

You know, if it weren’t for our help ... All of these "Falcons" and their ilk didn’t help the government ..

Well, Daesh also helps, so here they are on an equal footing.

It is interesting that in the video about the offensive of the Tigers brigade, the T-90 tank is refueled from a fuel barrel with the inscription "Lukoil"

PJSC LUKOIL is a Russian oil company. The official name is PJSC “Oil Company LUKOIL”
. Apparently with the production of fuel, the Syrians are very bad.

[Awaz]

in the video I noticed burning armored vehicles, approximately when the general with the "golden" shoulder straps seemed to be talking about something with the captain. It was very similar to a burning tank ...

[sanych]

Fight in complete encirclement for three years ... And the hope for a deblockade appeared only recently. Let this happen and not soon - the beaten barmels are pulled in there, but at least some hope for the besieged has sobered.

[tanit]

And what about the photo for the article? Airsoft game?
"C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre." (It's nice, but you can’t fight like that) General Bosque, near Balaclava.

[VAZ2106]

the terrorists were firmly settled in Syria, without external help they could not last long

and again in mourning, saudi arabia and israel mourning

Isil benefits Israel. This is clearly visible. The less calm the region, the more you rub your hands.

Another specialist in chemical weapons. The first and main question is why? Why apply something whose benefits are negligible, and the damage is more than obvious ...

Strange statement. Syria and Iraq were almost completely under the ISIS fifth and seriously tried to expand their influence in the region, but in a strange way their texts do not mention Israel. Although Israel has been fighting for many years with the Arabs, ISIS does not send troops to Israel and does not notice.
What is it for? Maybe Israel had a hand in creating ISIS or it just has certain relations, there are no accidents in such organizations, the stakes are too big!

[Black5Raven]

The Israeli army is not the Iraqis who threw a lot of equipment to the attacking Ishilovites and the Syrian troops did not run out of steam, here you can get a very serious cap.

[Mountain shooter]

More and more convinced, no matter how sad it is, that the Syrian army is an oxymoron! What its fighting ability is based on is not clear, but in a battle with a REAL adversary, this, excuse me, is rabble.

Would you fight for SIX years almost alone against the terrorists whom “half the world” supplies, I think you would look no better.
So to be honest you are somewhat "cutting" in your judgment.

And so he is hiding with a needle and pounding on the opposition, and Russia is covering.
I think the igil obeys Assad. Play the show.

Rabinovich think any nonsense you want, I beg you not to carry it in people, live with it yourself and feed it with your crazy fantasies ...

[Best]

There were bearded people from many regions, tens of thousands ... Is it possible that the SAA plans to use the tactics applied in the Kursk? After all, barmaley have nowhere to go but to attack constantly.

Well, before we “entered” Syria, her army had already fought for almost four years almost all alone.

[DOCTOR ZLO]

The trenches in the photo are not deep from the mortar shelling, they will not save, hack workers, it was not a hunt with a pickaxe to be seen ..

[sokol77]

everything is right, the position is equipped at a prevailing height (rather steep on a hill), on which on the mountain to dig trenches in full profile, a pebble of 30-50 cm is enough and be able to hide behind it (and there is a whole fence) people are assembled for the initial segment of the battle when necessary good density of fire on the advancing enemy downhill and then the whole pease ..... I resolve in predetermined positions or in the situation (maneuver by fire, maneuver by unit, etc.) they saw that there they had a backfire .... all by science

[ROM1077]

it is not clear why sarin and soman are not dumped on militants in the desert.

? or a provocateur?

the Syrian army storms Sukhna, from the north they go along the Rakko-DEZ road, follow the events on the military map!
