Fighters of the IRGC suffered losses under Aleppo

At least 13 Iranian fighters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps died and more than 20 were injured in a battle with terrorists near the city of Aleppo, reports Lenta.ru report Reuters message.

According to the agency, "the clash occurred on Friday when Islamists attacked the village of Khan Tumen, located in 15 kilometers south-west of Aleppo." The division of the IRGC had to retreat, and the settlement was in the hands of the militants of various groups, including associated with Jabhat en Nusroy.

According to the representative of the IRGC, Ali Rezai, in this battle "Iran suffered some of the biggest losses in Syria since the deployment of a contingent of military specialists in the country."

Despite this, the Iranian authorities will continue to support the government of Assad. “Iran will use all means to fight terrorists who commit crimes in the region,” said Ali Velayati, international adviser to Ayatollah Khamenei.

Earlier, 5 in May, the Iranian Foreign Ministry noted that "in Syria there are no Iranian regular units or special forces, and we are talking exclusively about military advisers."

The fighters of the IRGC are literate, one of the most efficient with Hezbola. On the spot, they provide powerful support to the Syrian army. It means that the massacre is tough near Aleppo, or the locals "cheated" on something, put the Iranians under attack
"The IRGC unit had to retreat, and the settlement ended up in the hands of militants of various groups, including those associated with Jabhat al-Nusra" - most likely it is, the allies did not provide flank cover.

There is a recording on the network of the storming of this village, which was done by the blacks. The assault was according to the standard scheme, first an infantry fighting vehicle with a suicide bomber broke through and rushed in the center, apparently there was the main strong point, then a tank and three infantry fighting vehicles went into the breakthrough. Either experienced fighters slept through the assault, or they were nifiga inexperienced, if they could not withstand the attack according to the usual "ISIS template".

I looked through the record of the militants during the attack on Damascus.
The impression is that in addition to shouting, Allahu akbar in tactics does not understand a damn thing. climb a bunch of bullets like stoned.
A couple of PKKs with experienced shooters, they’d put everyone.

When you follow the pattern, it usually rolls a maximum of three times, then the enemy will severely punish you for it. As you can see, it’s rolling at DAISH, I hope that luck will leave them soon.

The high density of advisers on one sector of the front ... Although not enthusiastic about how they call themselves, I warmly support the Persians' position in the Syrian conflict.

But the IRGC is not a regular army, as far as I understand ..? Like the National Guard, something ..?
Although the Air Force in support of them would not hurt ...

If you believe the wiki:

an elite Iranian military-political formation created in 1979 from paramilitary groups of Islamic revolutionary committees, supporters of the leader of the Iranian Shiites, the great Ayatollah Khomeini [7]. He took an active part in the Iran-Iraq war, as well as in the creation of the Hezbollah organization. Officially part of the armed forces of Iran.

[udincev]

the settlement was in the hands of militants of various groups, including related to Jabhat al-Nusra

I wonder if all the "groupings" have been deleted from the negotiators.
Or are they still in the tolerantly armed "moderate opposition"?

[donavi49]

No, Jude Al Aqsa is a handshake of rebels, with whom the armistice was recently extended the other day. And they were in the Mist and acted on the right flank, by storm. They lost 2 correspondents (one well-known reporter of theirs) and up to 5 broads according to their own reports.

[dmi.pris1]

They are literate everywhere ... And the IRGC, and the Syrian army, on the one hand, on the other hand, deserters from the same Syrian army, mercenaries .. For a long time, unfortunately ...

[PKK]

The guard splashed the shaitanmobile, the suicide bomber rushed already at the post, a ton of explosives smashed the post, those who survived were heavily shell-shocked. Then the Ishilovites drove up heavy home-made mortars, tanks and walked them around the post. After that, they took what was left, almost without loss. : tear shaitans on distant approaches, otherwise all the pipe.

[donavi49]

There was no IS; the nearest IS was somewhere 50-60 km to the north.

There was a group of Nusra - the best infantry of the broads, well-coordinated mechanized group 2 T-72 and 2 pennies.
There was Jude Al Aqsa - several T-55 armored units reserved with all kinds of rubbish such as them, a lot of infantry and support (MLRS, mortars), they operated on the flank.
Perhaps there were Akhrarovtsy.

The main problem is that there was no defense. The martyr’s bomb was blown up already in the Mist, at a strong point. The bridges across the channel were taken from the swoop. According to the video, everything is there.

I’ll add that it’s nice to dig roads in advance with excavators to fight against CMM. This will make the AL slow down and look for directions. At this point, the AL is easy to neutralize.

There, besides the IRGC, many Afghans died from Fatimion. Also 2 Afghan captured. 2 soldier from Mazandaran captured.

Suleimani urgently flew to Aleppo, and a representative of the Iranian president arrived in Damascus.

Friends, let's move away from the themes of war and politics and congratulate our veterans on Victory Day over Nazi Germany, and the clip for Natalya Poklonskaya is just super on the eve of Victory Day.

“Iran has suffered one of the largest losses in Syria since the deployment of a contingent of military experts in the country.” Despite this, Iranian authorities will continue to support the Assad government

Iran put a lot in Syria to get out of there. It didn't "grow together" ... Something went wrong. But this is war, damn it!

[Yak28]

Judging by the fact that the bandits in Syria show on TV mostly only small arms, grenade launchers, ATGMs. The Syrian army has armored vehicles, multiple rocket launchers, complete air supremacy, and so on, having the advantage in taking cities for so long During the time in which the army liberates one village in Syria, fighting with bandits, Hitler’s army captured the country, and the Red Army took an impregnable city during a counterattack, which was protected not by a bunch of bandits, but by a professional regular army having all kinds of weapons. that the war there will never end.

[voyaka uh]

The Syrian army lacks only one
kind of troops - infantry .
SA infantrymen were almost all Sunni Arabs - they deserted
and fight mainly on the other side in many factions.
And the pilots, tankers, artillerymen - the Alawites - are on the side of Assad.
One good battalion / regiment Assad managed to form - these "Lions of the Desert".
They are thrown from place to place, plugging holes.

The special forces brigade "Tigers", but rather an analogue of our DShB of the Airborne Forces and volunteers from the "Desert Falcons", who originally organized these latter correctly, the campaign recruited the backbone of real veterans with experience of the SAA.

With the top command staff they have, yes - the problems are serious. For those who, from one mention of them, write boiling water and ecstasy, I advise you to analyze the state of the Syrian Iranian advisers BEFORE our arrival. And compare with the current situation, difficult, but not hopeless.

Well, something like that with external perfume replenishment from around the world, yes. There are clearly not enough trained and, as a result, stable fighters on the defensive. Again, the border problem with Turkey is not resolved, and even with the Hesballah, even the border with Lebanon also has problem areas in the south.

In addition, normal armor is required - armor, helmets (and not helmets) .... like uniforms of Motorola squad. Well, and accordingly feed them for slaughter so that all these pieces of iron carry their legs.

Quote: Novel 11

And the specialists from Iran and Russia, really can’t train 2-3 regiments and smaller special forces?

They had already taught and commanded from Iran almost to Latakia, and nearly Damascus surrendered. Ours here armed and raised the level. BUT the matter is not fast, again in the war they not only quickly learn, but they die no less quickly, and even in conditions of civil war and external aggression with the supply of militants, this is not a simple matter. Well, at least estimate and compare the mobilization resource. The Iranians are also not in a hurry to engage the Basij subordinate to the IRGC, but they are recruiting Afghans of different Shiite angles. Well, and then - how are the special units going to keep the non-acid territory? Continue to drive them like hares around the country - plugging holes, which is happening now. A different approach is needed and ours is implementing it - signing local authorities on the world. This will work, as in Lebanon, BUT only against the background of harsh and merciless breaking of irreconcilable spirits. The East respects power and immediately begins to pour tea into glasses, hiding the dagger.

In this case, the defenders had 1 BMP (already the Nusrachei trophy), several Safirs, several gantraks.

The advancing Nusrovsky mechanic group 2 T-72, 2 BMP-1 which are perfectly coordinated (they also took Eis), the mechanic group Jude Al Aksy - 2 armored infantry fighting vehicles, 1 T-55. And a few more tanks / infantry fighting vehicles of other allied groups.

The problem is that the forces were not opened, they were allowed to concentrate and overslept the attack. And then, when the defense went, it turned out that since December, in addition to the liquid shaft, a small fortification on the bridge over the canal (which the broads had taken right away), and nothing had been done to strengthen the barracks. Here is a video of the first phase of the assault.

[Vadim237]

The Syrian army has a catastrophic lack of aviation.

Two generals worthy of respect.
Here are their faces.
1. General Suleymani, his people helped save our co-pilot. (Lower left)
2. The commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Major General Ali Jafari Mohammad, said that 10 ~ people's militias were trained in Syria to fight against terrorist groups, emphasizing the role of the IRGC commander, Hussein Hamadani, who was martyred, in mobilizing these troops .

Here the uncles lead the IRI troops. Erdogan smokes on the sidelines.

The generals are brave, but their system is just as Islamic - rotten.

Read about the Iran-Iraq war.
Some 200 dead Iraqi soldiers and up to 1 million Iranian.
The Iranians sent children with volumes of the Koran to minefields - to "clear mines" ...

The Guardians are better prepared now than before, but ...
In the Aleppo region, local (Sunni Arabs) KSIR officers (Shiites, foreigners) are hated.
Why do Iranians suffer such losses all the time? They are cut off from
supplies, local people do not let them into houses and shoot them in the back.

Alexei Do not you know how to fight in the East for all centuries.
Life is nothing, the main thing is victory.
Read the Iranian position from the Minister of Defense below.
I did not find a direct threat to the United States to close the Strait of Hormuz.
Check the Radio and Television IRI. I'm sure no one else reprinted this information. By the way, a statement from the Sentinels. Not from MO IRI.
By the way, the Israeli Cursor was looking, there is no information on the situation in Syria. It’s just silent. What is the reason for this? Obama seems to give Israel to the Arabs.

Yes, they almost never write about Syria: the civil war there dragged on,
Israel - aside, the public is not interested. Hamas throws regularly
rocket, receives a "return" - that's what they write about ...
Relations with Obama are cool, but he has no technical means to "surrender Israel".
In the States, Congress / Senate really rules, not the president.

As for me, it is very realistic. There, a substantial portion of the population is Sunni, and your broads are also Sunni. This fully explains why the war is so protracted and how these half-country women were so easily captured.

Whoever has not seen, look at a similar attack by the igilovites https: //www.youtube.com/watch? V = RhjWQ0TnLOw I believe that the loss of the allies brings the same grief as our losses. Eternal memory to the soldiers who died in the fight against our enemy!

Who cares. Iran’s position after the lifting of international sanctions.
The initiator was Mr. Obama, by the way.


The Iranian Defense Minister said that Iran does not recognize any restrictions on military exercises in its zones of influence.

Brigadier General Hussein Dehkan, in an interview with reporters referring to the instructions of the Iranian Supreme Leader on Iranian sovereignty in the waters of the Persian and Oman Gulfs, added: “Iran does not claim any rights beyond those specified by international norms for territorial, regional and free waters.

According to Dehkan, Iran, while protecting its territory, will not allow any invasion of either air, sea or land space.

“The Iranian Defense Minister, also noting that the United States and Saudi Arabia are trying to create the basis for the presence of supra-regional forces by destabilizing the regional situation, added:“ Countries that allegedly care about the security of the region at a distance of thousands of kilometers from their borders should understand that their presence is a factor of insecurity. "

[donavi49]

Losses mainly among special forces from Tehran - battalion Cn Saberin (Unwavering). Killed the colonel and at least 5 commandos who passed mountain and parachute training. Afghans from Fatimion also suffered losses - there are at least 2 prisoners and many dead . Babahs mock, take pictures with mountains of corpses.

It is unclear whether the Iranians jumped to the aid of the NDF and Fatimion, or whether they were sitting there in reinforcement. The strategic point, which was one of the main objectives of the Suleimani offensive, was in November, with the task of taking Hader and Fog, forming a reliable buffer for supply lines to western Aleppo. Which is periodically attacked. Which was seriously stormed in April, a month ago (a propaganda attack on the wave of Yakes being taken by the Babooms when they dragged journalists and stormed live). Totally not ready for defense. That is, in general. Fortified barracks in the city. Liquid shaft, a couple of positions and all.

Here is a video from the Bakhs from the UAV, how they famously brought down the flank. The defenders had several jeeps, Safir with recoilless, 3 machine gun nests, a loose embankment and sandbags. Babahs have 1 tank, 2 BMP, armored cars. As a result, the mechanic group broke through on one side of the embankment, a tank came up and that was it. The defense is over.

[donavi49]

The situation for the Syrian army is further complicated by the fact that the Caliphate is actively seizing the opportunity. A sudden blow in the desert took the main field and the plant supplying gas to Homs, Hama and Damascus - Shaer. They scored a lot of things, tanks, guns, ATGMs, an arms hangar, even a gifted KAMAZ. Next began to storm Mahr - another field. It also requires immediate action. As it was done, Desert Falcons, Radad (even before Mahr) were removed, the entry of blacks to Mahr will require additional forces. Which are needed everywhere, including Aleppo.

Here is Shaer.
