A video of allegedly routing a group of Russian special forces in Syria has been uploaded

The militants fighting the armed forces of Damascus posted a footage that allegedly captures the defeat of one of the opposing forces. Allegedly, a unit of Russian special forces was liquidated. However, this video does not consist of frames from the battle with the MTR, but looks like an ordinary throw-in from forces hostile to the Russian Federation.

The video was posted by Jabhat al-Wataniya lil-Tahrir (National Liberation Front), a group considered to be controlled by Ankara. Moreover, in the list of banned terrorist organizations in Russia, she does not appear.

It is divided into fragments. At the beginning, a geographic reference is made, and then individual frames of clash flash between them, between which one of the fighters tells the story of the battle.

The legend of events is as follows. A unit of the Russian special operations forces tried to penetrate into the enemy’s territory in the area of ​​the village of Ajaz, located in the Syrian province of Idlib. 3 September 2019 year during its movement, she was discovered by an unmanned aerial vehicle. The militants in this regard decided to ambush.

The battle supposedly began in 23: 03 in the dark. Visible traces of the flight of bullets from a light rifle weapons. At one point, the work of a heavy machine gun is noticeable. Through an infrared sight, an armed person is being monitored, apparently hiding behind a block of stone. In 23: 14 it crashes.

After that, already in daylight, the field of the last battle is demonstrated: individual things are shown, the most notable of which is the icon with George the Victorious.

Note that these shots do not contain details that can prove the accuracy of the allegations of the defeat of the combat group of the Russian special forces: UAVs could shoot anyone, shots in pitch darkness do not mean anything, the fighter caught in the sight is also not able to shed light on the circumstances of the battle, the remaining after the battle, things by and large do not deserve attention, since they could be placed by the shooters themselves.

I think that they removed the "non-brothers", of whom there are a lot of warriors from the outskirts. in short "merged" allies.

The fact that this is a weak confirmation also chews the author of the article throughout the text, as if doubting the mental abilities of the local audience.
For myself, noted:
1. The battle was, it is not clear with whom. But the first were ambushed. The sniper shot was from the back (?)
2. The fighter most likely died.
3. A helmet, backpack, chair are very similar to those that we could see, but it is commercially available.
4. Apparently those who were ambushed were strong guys, for those who were surrounded came out of it, taking 200/300.
5. Song behind the scenes asks FAB or KAB.
God grant that the bad is not confirmed.

At least 60 Ukrainians are fighting on the ISIS side. / official data of the SBU for 2016
These are mainly from the Crimean Tatar diaspora, but there are ethnic Ukrainians among them.
+ several goals of "Jebhat-en-Nusra."
In 2016! - now in Syria, it’s completely sour for non-Russians, which means “they aren’t there”, practically

Let's compare:
In October 2017, ISIS participated in 3417 citizens of Russia.
Russia is followed by the large Muslim countries of the region - Saudi Arabia (3244 fighters), Jordan (3000 fighters), Tunisia (2926 fighters).

Russian terrorists from the Caucasus Emirate were generally one of the founders of ISIS (as the editor of the Caucasian Knot publication Grigory Shvedov claims)

in April 2017, Vladimir Putin stated that

Of the 20 thousand ISIS fighters, 9 thousand are Russians, another 5 thousand are immigrants from the post-Soviet republics

Shoigu said that during the Syrian campaign it was destroyed

2 thousand terrorists from Russia.

They shot in the dark, told something. We got a picture of the prayer test. There is not just some non-trust here, but total disbelief.

Full growth on a deserted road, in the afternoon. Do not tell me, did not look further. Bullshit

[Antiliberast]

And you are not embarrassed by the moment when the sniper is working? Head over the stone. If memory serves, then in the army or even at school, there were pictures of the correct shelter in battle, there is a tree, a hummock, a stone, there is no head above the shelter, and it is as low as possible on the side, and it’s very strong to expose yourself as a target for special forces ...

[PalSanych]

Bullshit. What kind of defeat we are talking about. Even if a sniper shot a fighter, it’s not a fact that this is ours.

[svp67]

Pure propaganda. Frames are presented against which you can tell anything you want, up to the point that only these jihad wars saved the Earth from an alien invasion. And reality is a map of the controlled territory of Syria.

Some unproven cutting of frames. It seems that any Russian-speaking person is perceived by default as a professional Russian commando.

[Simfy]

and what should they have removed? full-length action movie? ... unfortunately usually such videos are confirmed (

[Tzar]

They had to provide something that even the smallest proof of their claim. And then for the second month they have been shouting about "Russian special forces": now in the south of Idlib, now in Koban, now from the side of Abu-Dukhur. And in two months they gave out this low-quality, high-quality craft.

Well, it’s already good that they didn’t find a wall icon at the scene of the battle, but maybe if they dig well and find the full iconostasis ...

Well, in the wording: defeat implies destruction, i.e. must be killed and / or prisoners. And where?
We disagree, gentlemen, they are trying to misinform us.

[shinobi]

Going on a mission, the special forces does not take anything personal with which it would be possible to identify the identity and belonging of the soldier. This is a general rule for special operations forces of any state.

[Same lech]

0:23 seconds ... fighters go in a compact group under the supervision of a drone on enemy territory ... funny with one rocket or a shell you can put the whole group ... unless special forces do this ... until I could make out any details pointing to our fighters ... even the icon peeking out of the pocket seems to be specially pulled out.
There was a message from Vedomosti about the death of three Russian troops in September 5th in a completely different area.
So the Turks muddied something with water without presenting clear evidence.
And then peeking out from behind the shelter at its highest point under the fire of a sniper is it you know stupidity is utter, I do not think that an experienced commando will do it.

[Honest Citizen]

fighters go in a compact group under the supervision of a drone on enemy territory ... funny with a single missile or shell, you can put the whole group ... does the special forces do this ...

They also sing songs loudly, put on all awards and drink vodka on a halt. This is how special forces act ... but only in films produced by Hollywood.
PySy. Yes, it’s strange that they didn’t go on a march, apparently the path was narrow.

[tatarin1972]

They go, you can say the crowd. There is no head watch; they don’t go so freely along foreign territory.

Knowing the reputation of our special forces (forces of the Special Operations Forces), the Turkomans did their best ... A weak staging, and all this does not look like RUNNING. But the headlines, the media "reposts" are placed ... Noise, one noise ... the main thing is not to turn into a piercing whine ...

On the one hand, self-promotion, and information warfare, on the other hand, are two-way attitude to such a video, on the other hand, the militants have already learned to fight, there are also enough specialists in conducting combat in different terrain conditions. So maybe something was. .. And in any case, this group must be moved to hell in full force, since they are fighting against the Russian army.

I completely agree with you, I think there they already put absenteeism)

[rotmistr60]

So much has already been said about the information war that everyone has long understood that each side always presents information that is beneficial exclusively to it. The difference is that our MO does not deal with fakes, which cannot be said about the bandits and those who support them. It is alarming that this comes from a pro-Turkish bandit group. Not everything is so smooth in our "cooperation".

[K-612-O]

And there smoothly can not be by definition. Words are one thing, but interests are different. We cheated on them all the raspberries in northern Syria, now they will spoil as they can.

[rotmistr60]

Therefore, if you noticed, I put the word "cooperation" in quotes.

[Black Colonel]

Where are the "white helmets"? Why did they forget to take them off?

[Zaurbek]

In general, they usually lay bodies on the net right away. And then everything is brand new and the device.

[Cruel beaver]

Barmaleev has been caught more than once on stage shots ..... However, all according to the manuals of the star-striped owners ....

[Maalkavianin]

I think, even if it’s true, the Ministry of Defense will not disclose information about this and will remain silent until it is completely obvious. Not ordinary soldiers, after all. Special Forces.

[rocket757]

The war is real, the war is informational ... it is also a reality.

[Redfox3k]

But in fact it will be like in a joke about a man who got lost in the forest and a bear who came to him screaming.

I am glad that "Jabhat al-Wataniya lil-Tahrir" not only do not know how to fight (a bunch of beggars master the money), but also concoct agitation ... the further into the forest, the thicker the partisans)))

Cheap, weak and unconvincing. Until ukrov you are far away. They personally, President Poroshenko from the largest tribune in Europe, waved a dozen "Russian" passports. Another time, he even brought the lining of the bus. Learn !

[Vadim Golubkov]

Fake of course, that’s how the bodies would be removed.

[saveall]

Well, even if there was such a battle, where is the defeat then? Some kind of reconnaissance group was discovered at night, took the battle and retreated. And what is the defeat? When there are no victories, you have to suck them out of your finger ... True, the Ukrainians have not yet surpassed, those already destroyed the Armats in batches, but here ... it's too small. But the experience of "the son of difficult mistakes" does not come immediately ... So we are waiting ...

[Alexey G]

Perhaps they want to quarrel with the Turks and this is beneficial to the Americans. If at least part of the truth is shown, then someone provided these nonsense with drone data, with the possibility of night vision, gave them night vision devices for light weapons, at least a sniper. If we recall that recently in Libya our shell was shot down by a US drone, then it might look like revenge to us, well, as an option ...

[Berkut24]

1) So where are the corpses of the defeated "special forces?" Where is this proof, at least in terms of equipment?
2) Even ordinary soldiers in the army are taught to hide under a boulder, why does a professional "commando" stupidly hang his head over the shelter?
3) ... and why, during the battle, does this "special forces" move not in dashes, but walks in full growth as a bumpkin?
4) And why is the front line of the patrol so quietly stomping between boulders, where they can ambush and do not even try to check the path for mines in the narrowness? Why is everyone so serene passing by a group of ruins, where a surprise can also be expected? Why does everyone go strictly along the path where it is a sin not to lay surprises for fools?

If, according to Stanislavsky, I don’t believe it. The cleaning lady is not suitable for the role of Joan of Arc.

[JonnyT]

Ahah)))) the openers drone spotted - right Shahherezada hangs fairy tales on Twitter))) If the MTR works, then it’s not exactly an unmanned aerial vehicle, there isn’t any connection at all except for the open link. And at night, these spoilers would have been simply shot as in a dash, because there are plenty of NVDs and thermal imagers

It is high time for our Moscow Region to create something like the Delta from the USA, and cast them, in agreement with Egypt, to the Sinai in order to fulfill Putin’s order! He’s effective in such a detachment, they themselves carry out undercover work, and they themselves destroy, although Delta often works with assault squads from the 75th Rangers regiment, they quickly work from helicopters unexpectedly landing ...

The Federal Security Service of Russia officially announced that the A321 aircraft was destroyed by terrorists. The President of Russia said that Russia will not wash away tears from its heart and soul until it finds killers and punishes them. The head of the presidential press service Dmitry Peskov added - Putin gave instructions to find and destroy nonhumans.

The Special Forces detachment advancing without a head guard is nonsense. Do not disgrace Basurman.

The main thing is that after a while it would not be true.

[clidon]

Yes, easily.

[clidon]

Now, it seems that by law the authorities are no longer obliged to report deaths during the special operation. Yes, and relatives do not have the right to disseminate information about this. Therefore, it is unlikely that we will soon find out.

[TNT19]

Bullshit, not worth discussing and commenting

[Baron wrangel]

Dolbodyatly barmaley! What normal special forces soldier wears on assignment orders or stripes with the image of "G. Pobedonosets"? Pindo ... are they all crazy with falsehood or what?

[Stalllker]

And where is the battle then? Some kind of commercial

[Old tanker]

The fighter hiding behind a block of stone is clearly not a professional.
And there are simply no such people in Russian MTRs.

[Alexey G]

Yes, the head patrol is not visible in the video, but it is possible that it passed earlier and did not get into the frame, so the group is calm, but the fighter from the side guard from the right flank is visible ... Perhaps the killed fighter was from the head or flank outpost, of course it’s not a fake, which is most likely what I really hope for. Again, there are doubts why ours do not look at the sky before going on a mission and during a task, because our radars should be in the rear, as I see it, even though I am an amateur ...

[Boris Chernikov]

it's like the militants themselves stomp on the video

[Fraracol_2]

The most offensive is that a considerable part of such information, which was also previously refuted in every way and which was similarly made fun of, later turned out to be true.

[Boris Chernikov]

I didn’t watch the video, I understood the bullshit from the text. The bearded decided to propiarize, so to speak.

[Boris Chernikov]

[Petrix]

What is striking is the naivete of some commentators who are accepted to describe events on commercials. You first appreciate the video itself!
1. A sniper in a battle against special forces !!! calmly writes video to a camera / phone tied to a night vision scope! (I wonder if I didn’t forget to turn off the flash?)
2. Why not already in the afternoon, after the battle, not take the same angle or the same stone, standing in the middle of a flat field?
3. A folding stool (obviously a fighter was sitting on it watching the situation) at least sprinkled with sand, and not in a hurry to remove it from the packaging, a backpack too.
4. When the "wounded" retreated, the entire backpack was cleaned by transferring (under enemy fire !!!) to other pockets / backpacks, except for the most unnecessary - icons. Or was there nothing besides the icon? Perhaps they were ashamed to show.

P.S. Now so realistic computer games, only difficult with the right plot and decor. But this is not a big problem, you can shoot at night, and with words you can finish the situation and plot. Hollywood would withdraw for any order, only this can be revealed and ... a little expensive.

And why only a group of Russian special forces, and not some sort of space marines from Alpha Centauri? That would be more epic. Although sponsors overseas probably know that no one can fly from there.

[GibSoN]

The author of this news. Can I publish just the news, without my conclusions and amendments? It doesn’t matter what is on the video, and what’s the point ..

However, this video does not consist of frames from the battle with the MTR, but looks like an ordinary throw-in from forces hostile to the Russian Federation.

There are simply many points, including, for example, those when the relatives of the citizens of the Russian Federation who died in Syria cannot share your impulses .. Because far from everyone believes that the presence of the RF Armed Forces in Syria has a place to be! Therefore, for example, many people may consider that forces hostile to the Russian Federation are far from being in Syria or Washington, but much closer. Be loyal. This is just news, not a blog. Thank.

[Astronaut]

If there was a fight, there should be corpses, for example, the soldier who was shot by the sniper and seemed to be hit. So even judging by this video, there was no "defeat" - there was some kind of clash, where the sides remained with their own.

[ALEx NIXon]

video about nothing at all

[Prisoner]

Here are the uncooked tarantins.

[Kunica]

The samovar, matryoshka and balalaika were not found. The traces of bears are also kept silent. For this reason, I think terrorist propagandists are not finishing their work.

[STUG III]

Well, for me there are two strange things: 1) I can’t imagine how it is possible to simultaneously aim and shoot video through an optical sight 2) in the video there is a man in a backpack, the “shot” after which the man fell was fired in the head-neck area, that is, the wound must be severe blood loss, which is supposedly confirmed by something red on the ground, but why is the backpack clean (!) without blood.

[Alex_You]

It's my opinion:

[impostor]

The picture matches the digital image intensifier, but for some reason there are no rangefinder marks and other marks?

[aiden]

A few days ago there was information and a video that a Su-24 bombed there

[Mikhail Zubkov]

Fake. Our specialist would never stick his head above the stone, only from the side. And here it’s like a shooting gallery show.
