The network discusses a strange attempt to counter-attack the SAA in Nairab with the forces of one platoon and a tank

A video appeared on the network from the Syrian village of Nairab (Neyrab), for which there have been stubborn fights over the past few days. This village is located in the province of Idlib and is currently under the control of militants, who are actively supported by Turkey.

Video taken from drone, shows how the Syrian government forces tried to launch a counterattack on the terrorists.

It is this interpretation - "counterattack" - voiced by the representatives of the SAA themselves. This video raises a number of questions.

The question that has already been voiced in the Russian segment of social networks is if this is an attempt to counter-strike, does this mean that operations of this kind on the front line in Idlib are carried out by one platoon under the cover of one tank? By the way, according to the militants, this CAA tank was eventually knocked out with a guided missile.

The situation also seems strange because on one of the streets of Nairab a group of Syrian military personnel of no more than 20 people is dispersed in such a way that many are ahead of the tank. It is not clear who in this case is covering whom and whether it is covering.

And even after the militants launched an artillery attack on one of the Nairab’s units, the SAA detachment again scattered more than strangely: several people fled in the direction of the enemy, and the tank, whose crew apparently “reflected” on further options for performing the combat mission, noticeably lagged behind and only then began to catch up with frisky foot soldiers. But if the command is aware that the militants are using artillery, how justified was the extension of this platoon, which cruised directly through the shooting streets of the village? How secretive was this nomination ...

Something foolishly moving foolishly somehow.
Unorganized herd.

[protoss]

or they could have been an organized herd

[Shurik70]

Most like a distraction.

[Nyrobsky]

Quote: Shurik70

Most like a distraction.

More like a loss of control and an attempt to break through to the main forces. This city has been under the barmaley for five years already, the CAA only entered there and did not have time to really gain a foothold, but these apparently "delayed" and will not understand where the barmaley came from. It can be seen that in this "counterattack" there is no order and design - who is in the forest, who is for firewood. They also lost the tank to the pile. Somehow I think so.

[Romario_Argo]

Unorganized herd

for me everything is fine there
at the beginning of the video (16 sec) on the right side everything is shown - you watched
it is clear that the special forces took the perimeter of the village

[Lord of the Sith]

Starting from the 20th second, something was wrong, they were bored, on the right, the fighters generally seemed to walk with the girl in the park despite the shelling, the flanks were not covered, the reconnaissance was not working, I don’t want to shoot.
With this explosion at 42 seconds they could all be put down. And so lucky.

[Romario_Argo]

flanks are not covered, intelligence does not work

so the perimeter of the 25th division of the Special Forces took control
so inside the village for motorized riflemen almost a boulevard

[Lord of the Sith]

The fact of the matter is that "practically". And the gift arrived, fortunately not in the crowd. You can’t relax if you are not entrenched.
That, even if it was fixed, still ears should be kept sharp.

[voyaka uh]

What happened was counterattacked.

[svp67]

Quote: voyaka uh

What happened was counterattacked.

Did they counterattack? Or they were given the task of going somewhere, and they "got lost" ... They just run chaotically and purposefully, not checking what they have in the rear, on the flanks, in the buildings ...

It is not clear who in this case is covering whom and whether it is covering.

Friend to friend. The infantry is a tank from grenade launchers, and the one from them with its fire from machine guns ...

[Romario_Argo]

Neyrab specifically left, today the VKS will work out, clean up 100-200 mercenaries with equipment
Tomorrow, CAA again Neurab will take

[otstoy]

Lord, like our "patriots" are brainwashed by primitive propaganda. Today the CAA gave new kicks and she rolled further behind Saan.

[Romario_Argo]

here in a day and talk (!!!)
it’s already ridiculously funny, not even 20 times in a row such a topic with ledges - Works

[otstoy]

There is no "ledge" here; there was a question about the safety of Idlib. Turks form a security zone 10 km wide. around Idlib, the Idlib-Reyhanli highway and the M4 highway to Erich and Jisr al-Shugur. Neirab 7 km. from Idlib, i.e. allowed direct shelling of the city. Therefore, the SAA held on to Neirab at all costs, the Turks and the Greens stormed, and Russia did not intervene. Now the CAA has been pushed back beyond the security zone and the situation will calm down.

[Romario_Argo]

your mistake is that you think that the Turks are against us and Syria (!)
not everything is seen like this - as presented
I repeat again, in a day we’ll talk (!)

[otstoy]

Turks are not against us. Partly against Assad, who is trying to capture the entire Idlib, despite the agreement on security zones. The task of Turkey is to form a small, conditionally independent Idlib, to drive into it all the irreconcilable Sunnis and jihadists and to fence for the next 10-15 years.

[Romario_Argo]

Turkey's task to form a small, conditionally independent Idlib

Turkey does not have such tasks (!)
Syria will clear the entire Idlib zone with Latakia,
then there will be Afrin, El-Bab with Menbij
Well, lastly, the Kurds in the khafir Hasak

[otstoy]

Assad's lip does not crack from such requests?

[Grits]

Quote: otstoy

Assad's lip does not crack from such requests?

The lip may not crack, it is still the territory of his state. Which is occupied. But the budget will crack. And the fighters aren’t enough.

[Altai72]

The day has passed. Well, what about the Neurob?

[otstoy]

A day has passed. The Turks again bent CAA and she surrendered Majariz, Al-Salkhiya and Ephesus. Those. the Turks reached their goal, moving the front from Idlib 13 km. Now even Neurab is 4 km away. from the front. Moreover, Russia looked at Assad's bending absolutely sports.

[Altai72]

There are fights in the suburbs of Sarakib. By morning, I think they’ll take Sarakib. And that comrade who promised to talk in a day, something doesn’t get in touch. M5 is already cut,
in CAA, the heels are shiny.

[Romario_Argo]

M5 is already cut

That's exactly the Sochi agreements beat about the release of the M5 highway
Turkey namely Erdogan - just bent itself
It’s good that there’s a plain there, so the VKS will digest the most combat-ready units
And about the day, apparently in our General Staff other time frames

[shahor]

Quote: Romario_Argo

And about the day, apparently in our General Staff other time frames

What? they did not agree on their ideas with you? Can not be...

[Romario_Argo]

A day has passed. Turks again bent CAA

The Turks bent themselves. SAA played under their false retreat
Now it’s the turn of the videoconferencing system, we consider the corpses of the green. digest them all and go on.

[otstoy]

Be a peasant and admit that yesterday he broke nonsense. Without Russia, the SAA is just like a bunch of green squads. For 3 days, the Turkish army drove the SAA 6-7 km. and cut the strategic highway, and our Su-34s just looked at the defeat. There is a video where they fly without interfering.
All because Assad got all his fanaticism. Including in Russia. He is always not enough, he wants no less than everything. Now they showed him that he really stands.

[Romario_Argo]

Be a man and admit that you yourself will look for nonsense (!)
* read all my comments on the article including for today.
according to the rules of VO it is forbidden to repeat comments

[otstoy]

I always knew that for our "hurray-patriots" reality does not matter when it comes to "friends" and "aliens."

[Romario_Argo]

me your cons with your rating like an elephant
the reality is that there are strategists in Syria and you are these minute tactics

[otstoy]

Yeah. This is a "powerful" strategy, when a strategic route is handed over to the enemy for the sake of some kind of shelling. )))
Assad does not have any strategy, because he is the same savage as the militants with whom he is fighting. There is a strategy in the relations between Russia and Turkey, to which Assad is like an infantryman to the moon. He climbed beyond the permissible and in 3 days he was put in place.
PS Although I am sure that the Turks will return Assad control over the M5. The bashing was required only for education, but they did not need the track itself. They will retain only the northern Idlib with the capital and the M4.

[Romario_Argo]

in order to bend Erdogan to return the track - he himself whined about the Sochi agreement
2. as an option: if everything was so planned, then they definitely returned the Green’s confidence
only not for long, the videoconferencing is already being worked out.
Incidentally, the 25th division is now controlled by the city of Kafr Awaid in Jebel Es Zawiya, south of Idlib. Soon they will take dams.

[otstoy]

SAA entered Kafr Awayid because the greens left him without a fight. As well as dozens of other cities and settlements of Hama, Idlib and Aleppo. They were forced to do so by Erdogan, who established the boundaries of the TA defense in Idlib. Because since the militants themselves are not able to keep the extended front under air strikes, they accepted Erdogan’s conditions and are moving to its borders. But Neyrab was inside the borders and Assad did not give him away from fanatical obstinacy. Therefore, the Turkish army did a bit of work.
PS By the way, Asad’s dams are unlikely to be given. Erdogan will probably leave them in his zone.

[Altai72]

Praise your ratings about seer! You should not overestimate yourself. Here I think most of the considerations are on military matters.

[Altai72]

They killed 13 tanks in 5 hours and managed to give green 3 tanks, one of which is the brand new T-90

[Altai72]

Tomorrow is coming to an end. Turks go to Sarakib. What about Neyrab?

[Romario_Argo]

let's see what happens at night or tomorrow

[Altai72]

It is true that the Lord God of tomorrow cannot be counted!
Balabolit not toss stones!

[Romario_Argo]

Incidentally, the 25th division is now controlled by the city of Kafr Awaid in Jebel Es Zawiya, south of Idlib. Soon they will take dams.
And the boiler will shut, the main thing is that they do not have time to lower the water to the western position

[Altai72]

Soon the edgings will be your 25th division. February is running out, the Turks pulled up the commando. I will look forward to your forecasts

[Altai72]

We look, we look. An Asad column has just been covered on the M5. At least 60-70 blindman

[otstoy]

Yeah, the Turks with the Allies knocked out the SAA from Serakib tonight. This is really a shame.

[Romario_Argo]

Tonight, Turks with Allies knocked out SAA from Serakib

Saw. I acknowledge (+)
Apparently, GENES has a different vision of the operational and political situation than you and I (!)
Meanwhile, they cleared the territory along the lines of the cities of Al-Qahira - Kansafra, advanced 15 km. deep into the M4 highway, cutting off the ledge and went almost to the dams.
Having freed more than 10 Brigades, Art and Tank Regiments
These forces, this is the beginning of the end of the Idlib zone - it’s just a matter of time (!)

[otstoy]

I will put a plus for recognition.
Rather, the front line is coming in line with the "Erdogan line." Which he probably agreed with Moscow. Assad will be allowed to take everything that lies before this line, but no more.

[Romario_Argo]

it seems we have reached an agreement between the parties +

[Chaldon48]

Tavo who decided to act with such "forces" for good should be brought to justice.

[Romario_Argo]

this is not a tactic but a strategy - therefore, many find it difficult to understand, if at all possible
information war in addition to pictures and videos - now it also requires victims (!)
so that the enemy believes, draws in and is destroyed in the area prepared for this

[Maz]

Nairab is a trap for action movies. And while they got stuck there, then
CAA took the settlements of Deir Sunbul, Qawra, Sahab and al-Aziziya on the border of the provinces of Idlib and Hama. As well as Kafr Nabil and Baskala, in the course of the shot down a serious Turkish UAV ...
SAA Air Defense Forces shot down UAV Turkish Armed Forces TAI Anka in the area of ​​n.p. Dadih in the southeast of Idlib province. This is a warrior who doesn’t drive Arabs on gas and doesn’t beat meanly in the back across Damascus

I had such a discipline as "Art of War" in my student book, and this is what we are now seeing in Idlib! And I must say that the Syrians, with our help, are two heads taller than the Turks and their bearded partisans. By the way, Turkey has carried out large-scale detentions of members of Haytrat Tashrir ash Sham. with a bunch of weapons. Today. The Sultan will not tolerate them at home

[Grits]

Quote: Maz

AA took the settlements of Deir Sunbul, Qawra, Sahab and al-Aziziya on the border of the provinces of Idlib and Hama. As well as Kafr Nabil and Baskala

Judging by the map you presented and the arrangement of Turkish posts on it, you might think that the Turks resigned to the loss of the M-5, but they are going to hold onto the M-4 with their teeth. There are only posts in the mountains, and everywhere there is a continuous chain

[anjey]

It is necessary to wring out M-4 by any means in order to secure Latakia and our Khmeimim, these are strategic routes, and cut off Mr. Idlib without highways loses its economic significance, and for the Turks it will be problematic, with the oversaturation of terrorists of all stripes, so Idlib will soon be under Assad will leave ...

[Grits]

Quote: anjey

It is necessary to wring out M-4 on any one, in order to secure Latakia and our Hmeimim, these are strategic routes

It is necessary. But only the Turks understand its significance no worse than ours. And so just do not give. In addition, on the highway stands the city of Jis al-Jigur, which is also a hotbed of democracy. It was from there that all the crap came out in 2011. And the inhabitants of his Assad will never accept. And with the Turks they gag at the gums.

[anjey]

In addition to the military, there is also an economic strategy, so let our strategic managers agree, Trump drove a deal to hundreds of billions to China, drove a helicopter to India, put in helicopters, a billionth deal again, he’s a merchant president, he has no time to fight

[protoss]

so there the whole war is, there are 2 tanks, there are 3 partisans, in a neighboring village a pickup truck with a machine gun.
Well this is not PMV and not WWII, where they moved armies and corps

[PalBor]

Yes. Nairab, apparently, was left, even the videoconferencing did not help. At the same time, in the south of Idlib, several villages were released in a day. Yesterday's map, now even wider. And ours are seen there. But soon, PMCs.

[Alexey Polyutkin]

Does the author think that modern wars are fought in the years 41-45? A dense front in the division?
And how were the soldiers supposed to move? How is the exercise? Cleaning every house?
How much time would they spend?
Apparently the task was different?
Reasoning from the couch is very simple. I watched a video from Donbass, where they fought in about the same way. Whatever Fifteen or "Somalia": the tank is 500 meters behind the village, with jokes and jokes they shoot at it over the houses. They do not see him, they stand in full growth. Somewhere a spotter sits and declares: not flying, flight ...
So I'm not surprised by this video.

[gohomeyanki]

Well, even tanks didn’t go to WWII, as the author thinks, and you write ... so you compare it with the Great Patriotic War, the scale, they killed several thousand a day there ...., movements by millions of armies, a hundred years passed strangely, and the level and scale is incredible, and yet unsurpassed.

[Romario_Argo]

the tactic is called "ledges"
terrain is mined, markers are put and positions are left
militants come in
VKS and art clean up
minus 100-200 militants, equipment and heavy weapons.
Tomorrow Neurab will be with CAA again

[kapitan92]

Quote: PalBor

Yes. Nairab seems to have left

We lure! We are preparing two flank attacks. There will be a noble "boiler".

[Romario_Argo]

The noble "cauldron" will

I think there will be a tactic of positional war with the alignment of the line of an impromptu front in the villages
the goal is to grind more terrorists whom Turkey is transferring from northern Syria to Idlib and to Libya
By the way, in Libya, Haftar with our PMCs and MTRs have already grind 4000 militants from Syria, whom Turkey has transferred there
there will be no boiler, we will slowly but productively go to the M-4 highway

[Siberian 66]

When ours in '41 counterattacked with the task "at any cost", this is understandable. There was no experience of both direct commanders and superiors, there was no interaction between artillery and infantry, aviation ... But when like this in the 9th year of the war ... In the presence of the North Wind ...

[donavi49]

Classically chased after two birds with one stone and run the risk of releasing already caught, without catching the second:

in the south, where the Tigers' strike fist and reinforcements were pulled off - so far, success is limited. In the sense that they are mainly small villages and high-rises - which are defended by local bakhomopolis and small garrisons (which do not accept much battle and dump on Toyota).

It’s just now that they have come to seriously defended positions.

On the other hand, Desert Falcons, 106 brigade and various prefabricated hodgepodge, make the race after the race. Today’s day run from the village of Jawbes - lost the village of San. In the background is Sarakib with the M4 / M5 junction - the most important strategic point. If you lose it = lose almost all the successes of the offensive.

Here are the acquisitions for the day + Jawbes in question, because they have already left it (photo above).

The traditional Syrian disaster - only 1 unit in the entire army is able to fight normally.

Rather, a false retreat. Lure.

Well, I would have, without having more facts than the article and the short video that shot the fragment of the operation, would not have been clever and criticized.
Maybe it's RB.
Maybe one of the assault groups, urgently running, takes up positions behind the running enemy.
Maybe, on the contrary, a pullback to their positions after they have choked on any section.
Yes, there are more options than in roulette ...

Yes and whether it just do CAA?

[Bshkaus]

In short: we lost the city, now we are looking for extreme government forces in the form of strangely behaving.

The question that has already been voiced in the Russian segment of social networks

The same bloggers, what to take from them?
I read in a book about Skobelev that he swam across the river to the side of the Turks, and then, in splendid isolation, explored the rockade and the location of Turkish forces. I’m sure bloggers from social networks would also find this strange.
And if they were even a little interested in the military theme, they could know that the most daring attacks and raids in most cases were carried out by extremely small forces and contrary to common sense.
And if there really is something "not conceivable", then the question is, how did these "gouges" manage to hold out for almost 10 years?
If bloggers from social networks like something, get up and join the ranks of CAA

[maksbazhin]

the question is, how did these "dolts" manage to hold out for almost 10 years?

So on the other hand, no better.

[Xenofont]

Well, where are our advisers? To let go of the strategic direction from the junction near Syracib is a serious mistake of command.

[Alien From]

Do not look for logic where it does not exist ...... East is a delicate matter ......

[flicker]

What's the problem???
"... in urban conditions, heavy armored vehicles become extremely vulnerable to enemy anti-tank weapons, for which the building offers a wide scope of opportunities for organizing ambushes, bypasses and unexpected attacks. To avoid unwanted losses, tanks must advance at the same pace as advancing infantry units, without losing sight of them[12] and, if necessary, supporting them with their weapons [9]. "
Z.Y. Some kind of woodpecker posted a video on Twitter: it’s not clear where and when the shot was made, who is there, what is their task?
And he gave this video a sarcastic tone: he called it the counterattack (?!) Of the Syrians and began to water them ...

[Ural resident]

In general, I don’t understand how it was possible to lose the village with our dominance in the air, artillery and MLRS. Was it really impossible to just bomb the broads at the approaches?
Or again "agreements" with Turkey? ... on the non-use of aviation, for example ... All this is very strange. What will happen when the Turks begin to use their troops to the full?

[flicker]

What will happen when the Turks fully begin to use their troops?

What will happen? There will be corpses in the Turks.
The Turks just need to be drawn into the Syrian war. In Libya they are already being threshed (and there they challenged the Arabs!
The Saudis still remember the position of Turkey in the case of Khashogi), they will begin to wet them in Iraq, the Cypriots are sleeping and see how to return their northern territories (Greeks to help them), the Armenians have not forgotten anything, the Turks want to chop off Batumi from Georgia. Finally, the Kurds in Turkey (and 25% of the population) do not wait until they can dig up their scimitar ...
So let them start.
Z.Y. Turkish military has a tooth on Erdogan.

[Oquzyurd]

There is a full version of the video in YouTube, there is no mess, running, and the village is surrendered. Filmed from the sky, from mini-infantry cameras, etc. Like an action movie.

[Grits]

Quote: Resident of the Urals

What will happen when the Turks fully begin to use their troops?

There will be a rout.

[Ovrag]

Well, Erdogan competently acts. Almost all Assad's forces are mercenaries. The Syrians and Kurds themselves are not in a hurry to help him. And the worst thing for a mercenary army is protracted battles. In which already low morale is finally sprayed. Along the way, grinding the most combat units in the main sections of the offensive. Obviously, the task is to exhaust the enemy as much as possible before the forces of the regular army enter it.

[flicker]

Well, Erdogan competently acts.

While all the forces of the pro-Turkish terrorists have been thrown to win back their lost positions on the eastern outskirts of Idlib, in the south of Idlib governorate, the Syrians take one settlement after another. Just taken Kafr Nabl.

[Ovrag]

And they suffer permanent losses. So far, the Turkish forces are simply retreating. How much will the Syrians have? Given that the closer they are to the Turks, the more they find themselves in the zone of artillery and air force operations. Let me remind you that the Turks themselves so far have been limited only to artillery.

[flicker]

Given that the closer they are to the Turks, the more they find themselves in the zone of artillery and air force operations.

this relationship is mutual

So far, the Turkish forces are simply retreating.

And who prevented them from "simply" retreating before?

the Turks themselves so far limited only to artillery.

Do you have aviation left? Isn't that the kind of aircraft that Erdogan wanted to bang?
Z.Y. Turkey has worse air defense than Syria - so they will land quickly.

[Ovrag]

this relationship is mutual

I agree. But Turkey has a significant advantage in artillery.

And who prevented them from "simply" retreating before?

And they had done this before. Retreating forces show almost no resistance and almost no losses. But the advancing Syrians steadily climb under the covering fire. When the liberated village is immediately covered by everything that is possible from the side of the Turkish and Turkish forces.

Do you have aviation left? Isn't that the kind of aircraft that Erdogan wanted to bang?

They normally cleared the meadow like that.

Syria’s air defense is better only if Russia is added to it. But whether Russia will iron the Turks so directly is a question. Because the Turkish Air Force significantly exceeds the forces of Russia and Syria. And quite a breakthrough and suppression of air defense can afford.
So, here everything rests against the political will of the Turks.

[gohomeyanki]

yes .... for the time being they are shaking terrorists, it’s just that they took the village (and there with 100 + forces - people) and there was a turning point in the war, and the terrorists will win .... strange.

The main directions are apparently to liberate the M4, and to clear the area from above.

[flicker]

From now in Idlib near Basharovtsev, things will go worse and worse every day

Come on,
judging by what is happening in the south of Idlib - and there the Syrians took Kafr Nabl - you can’t say that.

[Was mammoth]

"The situation looks strange also because on one of the streets of Nairab, a group of Syrian soldiers no more than 20 people are dispersed in such a way that many are in front of the tank."

You are too optimistic. In this situation, it is not yet known who will draw the boiler to whom. And it’s unlikely that there will be any boilers. Judging by the actions that have been happening lately in Idlib, the SAA, on the contrary, is trying to level the front line. Here is a typical example - as soon as they created a protrusion in Nairib, then trouble immediately.

[SARANCHA1976]

a group of Syrian troops is dispersed in such a way that many are ahead of the tank. It is not clear who in this case is covering whom and whether ...
The concept of BT infantry cover for an aftar campaign is unknown.
