Russian Foreign Ministry Confirms Death of Russian Soldiers in Idlib Province

The Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed the death in January of Russian troops in Syria. This is stated in a statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry.

According to the published information, in January of this year, the Russian and Turkish military personnel were killed in the Syrian province of Idlib. However, the statement of the Russian Foreign Ministry does not indicate the number of deaths, but merely states the fact of their death.

In mid-January, Russian and Turkish military made another attempt to introduce a "silence regime" in the Idlib de-escalation zone. But the terrorists not only did not reduce their combat activity, but rather increased attacks. In the last two weeks of January alone, more than 1000 attacks were recorded. (...) Russian and Turkish military experts tragically died

the statement said.

The Kremlin advised to seek clarification from the military department, while the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation itself remains silent and does not comment on previously reported reports of the deaths of Russian troops.

Recall that on February 1 there was information about the death in Syria of 4 FSB special forces. According to some Russian media, citing their sources, it is about the deaths of the officers of the “C” (“Smerch”) and “K” (“Caucasus”) officers of the FSB Special Purpose Center. Their car blew up on a land mine, heading for the positions of the Syrian army.

we are talking about the death of officers of the "S" ("Smerch") and "K" ("Caucasus") command of the FSB Special Purpose Center. Their car was blown up by a land mine heading for the positions of the Syrian army.

With a high degree of probability, we can assume that these are guys from the military police. They are now at the forefront when patrolling disputed territories and all kinds of interethnic-ethnic fights.

[K-612-O]

On February 1, in the SAR, on the outskirts of Aleppo, four FSB officers of Russia were killed on a business trip. Two sniper pairs. One of the management of "K", the second of the management of "C" TSSN FSB of Russia.
“K” management officer, Captain Dmitry M., born in 1985. In security agencies since 2015. Married, left with two children;
- Management Officer “K” Major Ruslan G., born in 1978. In security agencies since 2001. Married, left with two children;
- “C” management officer, Lieutenant Vsevolod T., born in 1984. In security agencies since 2009. Married, left with two children.
Major of Management A. Bulat A., born in 1987. In security agencies since 2010. Married, at the time of his death raised two children.

The militants sent four suicide bombers to the city. After the bombing, an offensive and breakthrough was supposed in the area of ​​the posts defended by Syrian militias. The task of the sniper couples was to strengthen the Syrian army at the posts.
As a result of a forty-minute barrage of mine-artillery raid, an officer of the "C" department, Major Bulat A., was wounded and dragged out of the fire, reported to headquarters and rushed to the hospital. After a couple of kilometers, having overloaded a friend in an ambulance and sent to the base in the hospital, they returned to the position where they came under crossfire. The Syrian troops retreated and the militants already almost occupied this quarter of the city and continued the offensive.
Only five hours later, after dark, they were able to pull out the bodies of commandos from their position.

I would like to convey a big and warm hello to “woe-writers” who hear a ringing, but forget to think that it is possible to write and what is not necessary.
On February 3, the wife of one of the officers was supposed to lie in the perinatal center and give birth to a third child. Having learned about the death of an officer, the co-workers sent her to the hospital a day earlier so that she could give birth calmly and only then find out about the trouble. But the "woe-writers" in their posts "told everyone the truth" ...
We believe that everything will be fine and today or tomorrow the officer will become a father of many children ... even after death.
PS The guys were not “finished off by the terrorists” and their weapons remained untouched. They died like warriors, with weapons in their hands. The side of the plane with the bodies of those killed as early as February XNUMX was ready to fly out of Syria, Moscow did not accept due to the weather.

But it was already known about this for several days .. From various sources .. "As a result of a forty-minute barrage of mine and artillery raid .." you wrote .. And a day earlier on the Internet - the Turks struck a blow at the Russian military .. It's clear, the war .. A friend is Erdogan .. Condolences to the families of the victims .. Although what the hell is condolences .. Our commander-in-chief will smile at the camera, shaking hands with a Turk and talking about friendship and partnership .. How can children explain why their fathers fought? .. Eternal memory to the fighters who honestly performed their duty ..

Quote: Dikson

"As a result of a forty-minute heavy mine and artillery raid .."

This means that the barmaley are armed with mortars and artillery in sufficient quantities, as well as a huge number of mines and shells that you can throw them within 40 minutes. Although, now we know that the barmaley had ... 4 cars. That is, about 6 people for each pickup with a shooter and several large-caliber cars. Such poor artillery support for such a small group. This begs the question - is this "Barmaley" artillery? Or is there "someone" there? It turns out there is another force. But you cannot wet this power - partners. Therefore, our VKS did not work on them, which hammered our guys for 40 minutes ... Some kind of surre.

[Ka-52]

Therefore, our VKS didn’t work on them, which for 40 minutes hollowed our guys ... Something like Surr.

Suppose the bearded artillery beat. To call support you need:
1. the presence of AN in place
2. coordinates of the place from where the shooting is conducted + plus reference to landmarks
suppose it is (which is far from a fact), then
even if there is a pair on duty in the "ready to take off" position in Khmeimim, the time required to process the task, obtain permission to use, permission to take off, take off itself, fly at the target (flight time 200 km - 20 min at V = 0,6), search for landmarks and target identification - even with a rough estimate, there is a great chance of bombing an empty space. Easier to call fire support from the gods of war

[Grits]

Quote: Ka-52

To call support you need:

I do not argue, you, of course, are an expert in air support. Then the question arises - what then is the whole point of air support, if, using all the conventions that you described, the pilots bombed from scratch? Or now air support of troops is not applied at all when attacking directly on the battlefield? If aircraft cannot do this, then is it really impossible to use attack helicopters for these purposes? The same Ka-52, as on your nickname (manufactured, by the way, in my native Primorye). Or going on the offensive (especially under the leadership or coordination of ours) do the SAA troops not coordinate the time and place of the offensive with front-line aviation?

[Ka-52]

Then the question arises - what then is the whole point of air support, if, using all the conventions that you described, the pilots bombed from scratch?

No, not everything is so categorical. Firstly, aerial bombardment is most often carried out either against previously opened targets or over areas (for example, during an attack or retreat in order to suppress possible enemy actions). In the latter case, the role of AN is very large, since rapprochement of their orders and the enemy requires high accuracy from the pilots.

Information from the UK-based Observatory for Human Rights in Syria and the Lebanese publication Al-Masdar News about the deaths of four Russian troops in Syria is fake. About this "Lente.ru" reported in the Ministry of Defense.

The military department noted that all Russian troops located on the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic are alive, healthy and continue to carry out planned tasks as usual.

According to some Russian media outlets, citing their sources, they are talking about the death of officers of the "S" ("Smerch") and "K" ("Caucasus") command of the FSB Special Forces Center. Their car was blown up by a land mine heading for the positions of the Syrian army.

Names and titles have already been reported. And that all finished off with control shots to the head. And that everything happened as a result of the betrayal of the Syrian military elite. Everyone has already reported, very specifically. And here are all the hints and allegories.

According to Novaya Gazeta, special forces were ambushed in Latakia province, not Aleppo, as previously reported. Their armored car was blown up remotely, then officers finished off with point-blank shots in the heart and in the head.

Two days after the killing of FSB officers, the Syrian army fired at a group of Turkish soldiers in the province of Idlib, the newspaper said. “It is likely that the order to open fire and to eliminate the officers of the Central Security Service of the FSB was given from one center - the“ war party ”surrounded by [Syrian President] Bashar al-Assad. And today, it seems that there can be no talk of any negotiations, ”the newspaper believes.

Increases credibility in front of whom?
Only inexperienced in military affairs and idiots give high marks to the actions of our military contingent in Syria.
But in general, it seems like a pretty decent picture: most of Syria is under control, Assad on the Throne ...
But, if you start to analyze in detail the results of battles for cities and strongholds, the accuracy and timeliness of intelligence and reaction time to them, the real effectiveness of air strikes, special operations operations, the Cat and Mouse Game with Israel and Turkey, the accuracy and destructive ability of Our weapons and Colossal loss of our contingent, then we get a very low efficiency of the RF Armed Forces ... Do not forget we are fighting there not with a high-tech power, with banning, which does not have aviation, reconnaissance satellites, tactical missiles, modern armored vehicles, electronic warfare and air defense systems ...
At the same time, we manage to bear such heavy losses in technology and manpower.
If we were a regular army of another state at the place of the gangs, everything would end sadly for us.
But in any case, the Syrian experience will be very useful - it sobering up the "hotheads" in our country, showing that not the nuclear armed forces of the Russian Federation are in fact capable of fighting only on the territory of the Russian Federation, bearing great losses.
No wonder the President strengthens the nuclear potential of the Russian Federation.
