The US Air Force 10 days have not bombed the position of the IG in Syria

83
Since the beginning of the Russian operation in Syria, the activity of the US Air Force has noticeably decreased, and in recent days it has completely disappeared, writes the Financial Times newspaper, an article from which leads RIA News.



"While the US military claims that Russia's participation in the Syrian conflict had no effect on the American campaign against the Islamic State, the data provided by the Pentagon suggest otherwise," the publication said.

“The peak of American activity in the region was in July - 368 beats per month. Since then, the number of US air strikes in Syria has dropped dramatically. The lowest rates are in September - an average 2,5 strike on the positions of the IG per day. In October, the indicators are slightly higher - on average 2,8 strike. In the past 10 days, the United States did not attack the positions of Islamists in Syria at all, ”the newspaper writes.

According to the author of the article, “against the background of negotiations on the Syrian conflict in Vienna, the decline in activity is an alarming sign for Washington, demonstrating the weakening of the US position in the region.”

At the same time, the US administration claims that the reduction in the number of air strikes "is in no way connected with the Russian presence." According to one of the representatives of the White House, "bad weather has negatively affected the ability of the United States to bomb the position of the Islamic State."

However, the newspaper, following many Western experts, believes that the decline in activity was due to Russia.

"Russia purposely wants to complicate the situation for the United States," the publication cites the words of a Western diplomat, whose name he does not name.

NATO also says that Moscow "deliberately creates obstacles for the alliance's military campaign."

In addition, the West periodically tries to accuse the Russian Federation of bombarding the positions of opposition forces and some peaceful objects, without giving any evidence.

Yes, and all the "work" of the coalition was aimed at calming world public opinion, and the real order should (in theory) begin to be established after the overthrow of Assad. Not a drop of contradiction. Everything is logical.

To ensure maneuver in relation to Assad's offensive (transfer of forces and means) in order to minimize it. In parallel, there will be a wave (tsunami) in the media and they will try to put the negotiation process under control. Well, as always, someone is fighting there and I am the winner.

    The Israeli website DEBKAfile reported that the liner, heading from Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg, was shot down by militants of the Ansar Beit al-Makdis group (Jerusalem Partisans).
    This group took the oath of allegiance to the terrorist Islamic State. DEBKAfile notes that the Al-Hasan village in the center of the Sinai Peninsula, near which the crashed plane was found, is 20 minutes summer from Jabal al-Halal, a mountainous area in which the main Ansar Beit al-Makdis bases are located.
    The Israeli portal believes that the passenger airliner was shot down in revenge for Russia's participation in the Syrian civil war on the side of the Bashar al-Assad regime. Russian media reported that the pilot of the aircraft reported a radio station breakdown. Soon after receiving this request, the connection with the liner disappeared. According to experts, the cause of the crash was a technical malfunction in one of the nodes of the aircraft. More precise conclusions will be made by a special commission, which is currently being formed.
    As reported by EADaily, 321 people were on board the aircraft of the Russian A-224 aircraft of the Kogalymavia company, 7 of them were crew members. All passengers are Russians.

    US Department of Defense officials, on condition of anonymity, told the Associated Press Agency that over the past few days two Russian nuclear submarines have been patrolling the east coast of the United States. The Russian Defense Ministry refutes these data. First, not two, but eight. Secondly, they do not patrol, but look for a drowned container with vodka ... laughing laughing laughing

    I studied with the Arabs about one institution. I can judge that they know how to handle girls, but they don’t know how to fight, like we should send them to training in Dombass, Lugansk, maybe a normal soldier will come out.

      Arabs are very emotional! Emotional people will never make a good soldier! A soldier with emotions goes on the attack only once! You can never bet on an Arab soldier. You studied with them, and I tried to fight with them (1973). Conclusion is better with the Jews!

    It’s not for nothing that there is a joke on social networks: “ISIS field commanders appealed to the US leadership with a request to return American bombings.”

    After Russia began commenting on America’s actions in Syria, America naturally lost any desire to act there. Nobody likes it when they start constantly poking you in your joints. And again, America has places where you can at least get bombed by ISIS...

    It’s just that, against the backdrop of what the Russians are doing, it’s better for Americans not to do anything at all...
