The Canadian Air Force stopped striking in Iraq and Syria against the objects of the “Islamic State”, reports RIA News message of the Ministry of Defense of Canada.

Canadian Air Force ceased participation in combat operations over the territory of Iraq and Syria


"In accordance with the instructions of the Government of Canada, the Canadian armed forces 15 February stopped the application of airstrikes in the framework of" Operation IMPACT "(the name of the operation of the Canadian armed forces as part of a military campaign against ISIS in Iraq and Syria)," the release said.

It is noted that "six aircraft of the Canadian Air Force, which participated in the airstrikes, will gradually leave the region in the next few weeks."

At the same time, the Canadian Defense Ministry will continue to "support the air operations of the international coalition by conducting aerial reconnaissance, observation missions and in-flight refueling."

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said last week that the country's air force would stop combat sorties no later than February 22. However, he noted that "Canada will increase the number of troops involved in the training of the Iraqi armed forces."

Now on the territory of Iraq are about 600 Canadian military involved in training Kurds.

          "not special", but let's say an average of 700-800 km, (say Homs-Bagdat) with a radius of F-18 about 740-1065 km. refueling while patrolling is necessary.

    One gets the impression that Canadians were the first to hear that there was nothing to catch in Syria. Therefore, we decided to leave in English.

    Now there are about 600 Canadian military personnel in Iraq, Kurds involved in training
    Turks have graters with states because of Kurds. And the Anglo-Saxons for the Kurds, apparently, have some kind.

    Shtatnikam no matter where and how the war continues. The following beneficiaries are Kurds. They will have to arrange a war with Turkey for a free Kurdistan. In general, anyway, who and with whom, if only as wide as possible was a war. Only this will keep their dying economy.

    We immediately declared that we did not fly there that day.
    After 2 days, the Americans said that they also did not fly there.

    Well, the following chain is traced: Canada is friends with Ukraine, Turkey with one. Canada like I fight with terrorists, it seems like Turkey too. Once Canada flies away, did the Turks ask Ukraine to put pressure on Canada? Because it’s not clear why it suddenly left the coalition
