Syrian army broke through the blockade of a military base near Damascus

72
SAR government forces unblocked the territory of a military base of armored vehicles surrounded by militants in the city of Harasta in the eastern suburb of Damascus, reports RIA News.





The Syrian army has unblocked the transport department (the base of armored vehicles) in the suburbs of Damascus. Breaking through the environment, infantry and Tanks entered the control area,
said a military source to the agency.

According to him, the Syrian soldiers also "returned control over the flour mills, located next to the military base of armored vehicles."

Formations of armed radical groups repeatedly attempted to seize the territory of an armored vehicle base in Harast. On the night of January 1, the militants again violated the ceasefire agreement in the de-escalation zone and launched an offensive, managing to take a military base and cutting off all supply lines.

      Are these militants from ISIS or from other groups? ISIS is one thing, participation in a civil war is different.

Hating to the depths of their souls “Lexuses” and rolling EP as a party, the people unanimously vote for its representatives - single-mandate voters, but how can this not be done when SUCH people are there with SUCH surnames ...

And if you do not trust the Electoral Commission, change the site, you should go to Sobchak, the denier of everything. Here VO is enough to pretend to be near-minded, they have already chewed a hundred times that it’s Daish’s defeat that was established by our Strategists after the liberation of the last city from them. Trump, by the way, also stated the same thing about Daish’s defeat, and he is right. In Iraq, they also defeated him with the participation of the USA, and in Syria they helped the Kurds. And apparently you are not aware that the Nusravites and Daishaks fought each other. And if you don’t pretend, then I sincerely feel sorry for you hi

                  Well, that’s not entirely true. ISIS was not completely defeated and moved on to the methods of guerrilla warfare, from which the Yankees are not comfortable. It is not for nothing that they are asking the Russian Federation for help in cleansing the controlled territories. But we don’t have it, let them clean their de ** mo themselves.

              We can’t fight terrorists on the territory of Syria, this is the internal affair of the Syrians.
              Our goal was to defeat ISIS. ISIS is not just dependent terrorists - it’s well thought out and organized PROJECTby which they intended reformat world orderSo, this project was defeated - and the terrorists will still run, jump set fire, and so on.
              But the PROJECT - ISIS no longer exists (there will probably be another - but this takes time, the arsonists do not have it). In fact, Trump has already recognized this. Yes

          So it’s because it’s respected that the state is now not what it used to be. The state now shouldn’t and doesn’t want to care about you, why? Grandfather Lenin said "the state always has an apparatus for coercion of the ruling class", and which one is ruling now ( power) is the class? right is the bourgeoisie. And what is the bourgeoisie's class interest? profit, benefit, and once again profit. And since she needs hell for you and me and everyone else to live well, moreover, it’s even very harmful for her it’s extremely difficult to manipulate! After all, such people (classes of workers and peasants) can even take gills if that is why, hence the hell, and the growth of nationalism, and attempts at clashes on religious grounds, and the free labor market, etc. contributing to the maximum individualism (separation) of people. If only people did not recognize themselves as a class and did not unite to defend their interests and requirements, all for this wow.

      From a high rostrum, they announced the defeat of the “Islamic state”, because, as a state (with its own territory, capital, laws, police, currency, taxes and other signs of a separate state), it really ceased to exist - there remained scattered groups that they’re not going to end the war (as we have in Chechnya after the completion of the 2nd Chechen war). Moreover, the ig has nothing to do with these events - al-Qaeda natives and other terrorists who disguise themselves as the democratic opposition are drilled there. And another: stop throwing all kinds of exaggerations about the turnout and those who voted - the central government, taking into account the real !!! Putin’s rating is most of all not interested in postscripts in elections - if excesses occur somewhere in excess of the number of voters over the number of people living (this was only observed in the Caucasus), this is expressed in units of percent, rather than orders of magnitude, which is not significant values ​​in the overall picture of the vote, although it cannot be approved.

Russia has fulfilled its task - destroyed the entire structure of ISIS. Now there is no need to keep a large group there in order to chase every “barmoley” around the country. There now, purely internal disassembly. The remnants of the "opposition" mixed with "an Nusra" continue to resist the SA. This is a civil war.

      This is a large eastern enclave of the Báchs. There are fewer of them than in Idlib. At the same time, in this enclave there is still a peacekeeper supporting 100k + sons - for everyone from the 2014 of the year flocked there to whom Assad is not nice, and from there those who were not nice were chased out. Babahs have several areas of eastern Damascus, the satellite city of Duma, part of Harasta, and also eastern suburban cities. Plus, in the south, two areas of Damascus are also under the broads (one is a refugee camp under the defeated ISIS).

    The time will come and the Americans will convince the Syrians that all the casualties of the Syrian population are the work of Russia. And they will chant them, and we will be spat upon for the hundredth time. Therefore, we need bases not temporary, as once in Europe, but as in the Kaliningrad region - the territory of Russia .. If this is not done now, then it will be like in eastern Europe. We got a knee under the ass and desecrated the graves of our fallen. If the GDP doesn’t do it now, then all his merits are on the side, and for me he’s just “not a good person” who stepped on a rake, and the descendants got a forehead.

    Quote: The same Lech
    I don’t understand why the data about the enemy is not given ...
    how many militants ... what are they armed with ... who is the commander ... who is planning the operation ... who provides informational cover and many other military issues ... at least something can be analyzed.
    Those news that we get off with a minimum of information for the layman what say little ...

    According to the special envoy of the President of the United States in the international coalition Brett McGurk, at least 3 thousand fighters remain in the ranks of the IG.
    60,3 thousand militants were killed.
    During the operation, the armed forces of the Russian Federation lost four military aircraft and four helicopters. The Russian Ministry of Defense recognized the death in Syria of 41 people (more than 200 dead from the ,, group, Wagner do not belong to the Russian armed forces).
    There is another phase of the war - partisan, people continue to die, in the military sphere the situation has not cleared up.
    Syria is divided:
    - in the north-east of the country. part of the territory controlled by the Kurds,
    - part of Syrian territory is controlled by the United States. This area is approximately 70 square meters. km located at the junction of the borders of Syria, Iraq and Jordan.
    - territory in the north, controlled by Turkey.
    - There are Russian bases, naval and aviation.
    - part of the territory is controlled by Iran, where it is building its military base.
    It’s easy to start a war, it’s very difficult to end it, especially since Assad is supported only by his clan - the Alawites, who in Syria are 10-12%, who form the basis of Assad’s Army. Without the support of Russia and Iran, Assad will sweep away the population of Syria. ..... there are demonstrations in Iran protesting against financing the war in Syria, instead of raising the standard of living of the population.
    The standard of living of the Iranian population is 100th, Russia is 90th.

    In my opinion, the main task of Russia - by all means, using any legal and not quite means to remove the Americans from Syria, otherwise tyagomotin with the civil war will continue forever. The fulfillment of this task, of course, does not exclude attacks on oppositionists who are too zealous.

      Very carelessly listen and read the published information, I will repeat my comment from a neighboring branch:
      05.01.18 analysis from Colonel Kassad, quote:
      "Despite some problems in Eastern Ghout and an unpleasant episode with Khmeimim, the main events in Syria are now unfolding in North Hama and southern Idlib, where the largest attack by the SAA and its allies of the end of 2017 - the beginning of 2018 of the year continues.
      As Gerasimov, the head of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, previously outlined strategic goals for the 2018 year, the 2018 year should be the year of the destruction of An-Nusra and the cleansing of Idlib from terrorists. This campaign was launched in November and is now in the process of active implementation.
      It is the growing pressure of the SAA in Idlib, which is actively assisted by Russian military advisers and the air forces of the Russian Federation, that forces the militants to attack in Eastern Ghouta in order to draw off the reserves of the SAA from Idlib and Hama, as well as to carry out systemic attacks on the Khmeimim airbase in order to complicate the operations of the Russian air forces to provide air support to the Syrian forces. "
      Entirely here, source: http://rusdozor.ru/2018/01/05/idlib-05-01-2018/

      As you can see, everything is done methodically, according to the earlier (2017 year) approved plan of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. After the destruction of ISIS, as a quasi-state on the territory of Syria, ".... The 2018 year should be the year of the destruction of Al-Nusra and the cleansing of Idlib from the terrorists ..."

      Well and again, from the speech of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief V. Putin: "Syria saved as a sovereign independent state- stated the head of state. - Refugees are returning to their homes. The conditions have been created for a political settlement under the auspices of the United Nations. "The Russian center for the reconciliation of the warring parties continues to work here. Two basing points will operate on an ongoing basis: in Tartus and Khmeimim."And if the terrorists raise their heads again, then we will deliver them blows that they have not yet seen"he warned.

      So, we have patience, and are waiting for good news - they will ....

    The detractors of Russia are tearing up farts, it’s so insulting to them that the world hegemon (or rather, the one who stands behind him) got a shit in Syria with his ISIS - there was so much effort and dough in this project, so much time and hope, and there was nothing for the cat tail. crying

      The collapse of Syria, dragging Iran into a long war, thereby weakening it economically and a pleasant bonus for them, dragged Russia into this conflict, any war requires a lot of money. What did the Americans go down the drain? They achieved the goals.

        We can’t fight terrorists on the territory of Syria, this is the internal affair of the Syrians.
        Our goal was to defeat ISIS. ISIS is not just dependent terrorists - it’s well thought out and organized PROJECTby which they intended reformat world orderSo, this project was defeated - and the terrorists will still run, jump set fire, and so on.
        But the PROJECT - ISIS no longer exists (there will probably be another - but this takes time, the arsonists do not have it). In fact, Trump has already recognized this. Yes

          Well, instead of needles, they created an SDF with the current number of 100 bayonets, plus powerful replenishment of armored vehicles and heavy weapons that began in 2015. So they just own half of the ATS oil.

            Well, they wanted to, only for this they needed a land corridor. Since the Turks are surrounded by Turks, Iranians, Iraqis and Syrians, Jordan could be the only corridor, only the Syrians took Abu Kemal and thereby blocked the land route from the Kurds to Jordan. T.O. Kurds can only receive an enclave - a message only by air and they will block it. there is no way to trade oil (read: to develop the economy) and to fight in complete encirclement and isolation. So the mattresses have not very strong prospects there.

    and last weekend in the south of Idlib province, the defense of the Hayyat Tahrir al-Sham group collapsed. CAA, National Defense Forces and Tiger Forces liberated the strategically important city of Sinjar and the surrounding villages, including the villages of al-Nasiriya, Jabal al-Kafi, Lubayda, Hawa, Sheikh Baraka, Umm Muweilat, Tall Amara, Rasm Said, Kafraya and Mutawassita.
    Hayyat Tahrir al-Sham took little action to defend his position in the area and instead issued a statement accusing other militant groups of betraying the efforts of Hayyat Tahrir al-Sham to repel an attack by the SAA. In addition, the leadership of the group, led by leader Hayyat Tahrir al-Sham Abu Mohammad al-Giulani, held a meeting to discuss the failure of the group in southern Idlib province.
    On January 8, the SAA and the National Defense Forces continued their offensive at the Khayyat Tahrir al-Sham position in the direction of Abu al-Duhur airbase.
