27 Aircraft, 1,140 Personnel Withdrawn From Syria Over Past Days: Putin

Marina Lystseva/TASS

Over the past few days 24 aircraft and 1,140 personnel have been withdrawn from Syria, Russian President Vladimir Putin told the alumni of military academies at a reception on June 28.

“This withdrawal is continuing now. Only over the past several days, 13 planes, 14 helicopters and 1,140 personnel have been pulled out,” Putin said adding that the pullout of Russian forces from Syria began in December 2017. “You and your fellow servicemen together with them will fully use this experience of the personnel’s combat training here in Russia to perform the most difficult and outstanding tasks during snap checks, strategic and tactical exercises, and learn how to use the unique new generation equipment, which the forces start receiving.”

The president said that the expirience gained in Syria must be used in training Russian military personnel.

“The Russian army clearly demonstrated its growing potential and better coordination among military units in the struggle with terrorists in Syria,” he said. “All of you and your fellow servicemen are now to use the experience of that operation in combat training.”

The Russian military kicked off its anti-terrorist operation in Syria in late September 2015. Since then, the Russian military involvement has changed the crouse of the war and has allowed the Damascus government to retake large areas from terrorist groups.

iF ONLY THE AMERICANS AND NATO WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME IN LYBIA, AFGHANISTAN, IRAK !

Boris Kazlov

Wishhful thinking. U$AIPAC have the satanic plan of controlling the world, so far they are successful.

Promitheas Apollonious

are they?

How you figure that out?

leon mc pilibin

NATO better beware,Russia is more than ready to teach you Zionist scumbags a lesson you will never forget if you dare attack Russian people.

madashellron

OK America it’s your turn!!!

Patriotic_White_American

Hahahahaha RUN boy

Syria has been a graveyard for the puny Russian military

So many crappy Russian jets falling like Bricks from the sky :D

frankly

Go back to Viet Nam, they miss you!

Patriotic_White_American

Still not a single US plane scratched in Syria

HAHA

Su24 wreckage everywhere, Russian military can’t even handle a MANPAD ?

Concrete Mike

Your planes havent been touched because #1 its what you morrons want to start your war to save your debt ridden economy. #2 russia does not want to activate there s400 unless russian troops are in danger. #3 we arent fucking animals like you guys.

Whatever your working for the enemy of the people how do you sleep at night you peice of shit.

LaRata

Only 2 to 3 mission a day to bring support to isis and al Qaeda. This is the only thing the powerful US planes are doing in their illegal present in Syria skies…

frankly

The financial damage maintaining such a huge military presence will be the death of your empire. If you had a patriotic bone in your body you would call for a revolt over the role Israel plays in running the USA.

As to the utter failure of the US to do to Syria what it planned, well that is truly funny. Worlds most expensive military can not put enough boots on the ground to stop Bashar. Too bad all that money spent on ISIS, al Nusra and FSA is nonrefundable.

You know what’s really really funny, The US fighting ISIS. So as a true patriot how does funding evil ISIS head choppers make you feel?

1691

It’s nothing compared to america losing its army of mercs and the war. The SAA can easily handle the remains of the usis on it’s own.

Patriotic_White_American

The only mercs that were lost were the 200 Russians slaughtered in Deir Ez-Zor by US forces ?

Concrete Mike

Yeah keep your head in the sand boy…just remember you ass is sticking way up in the air.

Fred Dozer

How do American Astronauts get to the International Space Station ?

Promitheas Apollonious

Hitchin’ a Ride. They very good at that.

Brian Dippenaar

Oh please, how many thousands of US soldiers will never be returning from Iraq and Afghanistan alive?

To quote from wikipedia: “129 helicopters and 24 fixed-wing aircraft have been lost in Iraq since the 2003 invasion”.

“375 U.S. helicopters lost in Iraq and Afghanistan up to 2009”.

Compared to how the US went bumbling / looting around in Iraq and Afghanistan for decades the Russian operation in Syria was a case study in achieving objectives within a reasonable time-frame and budget.

Your DOD will be studying their performance for decades to come.

Patriotic_White_American

??? Russia has lost more planes in months than the US has lost in two wars in over 20 years

Remember when Israel turned that Pantsir S1 to scrap metal?

Fake Russian weapons make me laugh

ابوعبدالله العراقي

Yes and we took recently two of their combat helicopters (one exploded after direct hit from TOW missile and second was only damaged in the tail). Russians are very silent about their losses in land of al-Sham.

Trovak

Not a good sign. Now the zionist-apartheid regime will have a free range.

Fred Dozer

Why are they telling the terrorist (NATO) this information. Maybe, a load of crap, to get them in the open ?

ابوعبدالله العراقي

Russians are naive and stupid even if their current leadership looks smart and sane they are not. I knew them and their failures in Afghan and Chechen wars.

World_Eye

Wait you now talk about their CURRENT leadership that looks smart and sane and then you are saying that they are not because of failures in Afghan war. What does this today leadership has with the Afghan war 30 years ago under Soviet communism, kinda of balance though.

ابوعبدالله العراقي

I talked about the Russians first then about their leadership. But the connection was made to Russians not their current leadership.

World_Eye

Hmm yes Russians in general are naive.

ابوعبدالله العراقي

When i looked at the videos from first Chechen war they sent their 21-25 yars old guys (young unexperienced soldiers) in long convoys against the well armed mujahedeen and they all died without giving any resistance after quick ambush. I never understood why they are doing that to their young generations they slaughtered own people in pointless Chechen wars. Convoys were hit by RPGs and machineguns but hundreads died after giving up they were shot by the mujahedeen into foreheads as response for their shelling of civilian towns which is usual for them. They don’t fight their enemies but instead the people who support their enemies which is very bad tactics in the long run. Russia claimed that only 6 000 of their young soldiers were killed and another 4000 missing and 25 000 wounded but the numbers are way higher. On YT graphic videos are censored but there are still many videos from the wars: https://youtu.be/uqNfk5Lh8xA?t=19s

Russians have weak religion, weak motivation – money, and no determination. But the same applies for Americans and any other non islamic armies.

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

Don’t worry his kind are being played as eliminate the leaders is being played by both sides except Erdogan’s side as he is afraid ,so he sends Turkish troops to fill the gaps of his proxies.

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

They have always done this as they rotate equipment and manpower for rest and refitting common practice in today’s Military’s. One thing is Russia have never wavered in their support for Syria and the fight against common enemies as Al Qaeda/Nusra/HTS and ISIS terrorists.

They can always come back, they’ve done it once.

There is new short speech on the internet by the Caliph Baghdadi, he talked about Russian withdrawal from land of Shaam, American defeat in Iraq and promised us the victory in the upcoming years, asked his soldiers for patience.

We are waiting for reupload sadly it was took down also with few Twitter accounts and also from YouTube.

Final words are: The Islamic state orders all its Mujahideen to remain in their trenches and areas of control and to not venture into enemy controlled areas or cities even briefly. Such actions are strictly prohibited. Stay in cover brothers, our enemies are losing their own propaganda war. They lost their excuses and now they are retreating.

If you pay taxes, you support the disbelievers in their fight against Muslims.

My friends are living in Indonesia, Tunisia, Qatar and Jemen and they say that every country is better than al-Sham under the rule of the tyrant Assad backed by the worst evil on this planet.

Im tired, so im going to sleep i wish you best and take care about your families good night :) And don’t worry Assad will fall just hope for better replacement :)

ابوعبدالله العراقي

Good night and take care of yourself too, dont let the kuffar fool you. In Europe they watch you, they spy on you. Always connect only from public networks and dont worget to wear your hijab in public.

Hamletka ?

That’s not true the police is very friendly here as far I know, it is not like in Iraq that they will put you in jail for just saying that you lived in Mosul without further asking you anything else ? Of course I don’t support terrorism and want to live peacefully without breaking the laws of the country where I do live as written in the manual of Islamic law in war and peace time.

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

You Takfiri are so few and dwindling you will be easily hunted down as was this whole exercise is all about eliminating radical extremists.

Muja Suria

Me? Leave me alone im peaceful. What is wrong on being takfiri? When Muslim see clear shirk takfeer is obligatory, you know?

Hamletka ?

Hello Muja I also live in Europe, I’m now on vacation in Turkey but soon I will be back so i will be able to access my google account again (stupid google blocks my access now with message: This device isn’t recognized. For your security, Google wants to make sure it’s really you.). So if you want some help write me on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCV27exhiZ2bbx8fIRWtX04Q) and I will give you mine Skype. And be careful in Germany, there is a generous dose of idiotic anti-Islamic and extremist left neo Stalinists, but the same phenomenon is probably anywhere in the Europe. I live near Germany in Slovakia and there are definitely not as many Islamic organizations as in the Czech Republic (Same language country but located between Slovakia and Germany). Anyway, I never regretted that I live there and once you know the non-Islamic alphabet (English text) you can learn any language except the Russian languages which use the different (Russian alphabet).

Muja Suria

Hi, and thank you for your kind support its nice to have an extra friends from the Muslim community. I will install skype later, however it is great spying tool of our enemies, be careful :) I will be soon on YT, now i have few problems that i need to solve have a good day and thanks you for info. I don’t trust the non-muslims here :)

Muja Suria

I saw you YT channel nice we will be good friends :)

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

It’s because of the IP it needs to be registered with device again would rather use local to be temporary only.

Hamletka ?

Also if you learn the local language and you will be able to communicate with people does not mean you are fine. The reality is that you will never feel at home, you won’t get to feel part of a country in the same ways that locals will. They may be warm and tolerate you but you won’t ever be one of them and they will never tolerate your religion (Islam).

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

You are the real kuffars keep your takfiri nonsense to yourself before you become targets of the new EII forces.

Muja Suria

Explain, i believe im good Muslim my family teached me well and my friends are good people, unlike you :) We did nothing wrong :)

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

Simple act like an outsider always be treated as one there are no religions in countries just people.

Muja Suria

You dont know me, im not interested in conflicts but i dislike shirk. There is nothing worse than Shias who call themselves Muslims but they are openly practicing shirk. Thankfully in Germany there are no Shias but real, helpful Muslims. I can tell you for now: I like Christians far more than the Shias or other pegans.

Terra Cotta Woolpuller

I don’t like fundamentalists of any religion because all they follow are the teachings of men of which have always obscured messages for their own selfish reasons.

Muja Suria

It is easy to say that, but if you whole family are “fundamentalists” and all of your friends too you have no choice trust me. Now in Europe everything is different and on every corner there is somebody who will try to pull you away from your faith. But iam still proud to be a Muslim and i believe that mine religion is the only true religion because the prophet said that Islam is both Christianity and Judaism united as final message to mankind it makes perfect sense. People should seek peace and the goal of Islam is to unite all people under one religion.

Muja Suria

Outsider? No people loved me in the school and i loved them, im friendly to every Muslim even those who dislike lSlS or other rebel groups not backed by our enemies.

People don’t post links to this web they will track you down and hunt you ;) Just saying.. Be righteous don’t let your enemies to use your weakness against you :) Don’t do injustice to other people even the disbelievers deserve to live.

ابوعبدالله العراقي

Hey Muja, they will be nice to you, they will try to use their influence over you to take you away from the religion of Islam, they will insult your Prophet (PBUH), they will offer you drugs and pork. Be strong in your faith otherwise they will misguide you from the straight path. It is the punishment of the kafir, munafiq and sinful is injustice. And Allah is High Exalted above that; then we are obliged to change the meaning to something other than practice, which is the creation of guidance from nothing and aiding man towards it. Thus the one who practices guidance and misguidance is the servant, and therefore he is accounted for it.

Don’t worry i know my religion :) My brother was martyred in lSlS and all of my family is are muslims :) Check this: It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Religion is easy, and no one overburdens himself in his religion but he will be unable to continue in that way. So do not be extremists, but try to be near perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded. Gain strength by worshipping in the mornings and afternoons and during the last hours of the night.” Source: https://islamqa.info/en/124611

ابوعبدالله العراقي

You don’t understand it, it virtually says don’t pray more than five times and don’t do more than Allah and His messenger has commanded you. This does not mean that you should stop your jihad or that you should stop fighting the disbelievers. It means do exactly what Allah and His messenger commanded you in the book nothing more and nothing less because both are extremes. If you take out the jihad, fighting the disbelievers then you are leaving part of your religion as it never existed and you are stepping down from the straight path. If you pray more six or ten times a day this is another extreme don’t do it. Fear Allah and listen to his book. And Allah knows best.

ابوعبدالله العراقي

The Prophet said, “Nobody who dies and finds good from Allah (in the hereafter) would wish to come back to this world even if he were given the whole world and whatever is in it, except the martyr who, on seeing the superiority of martyrdom, would like to come back to the world and get killed again (in Allah’s cause). The Prophet said, “A single endeavor (of fighting) in Allah’s cause in the afternoon or in the forenoon is better than all the world and whatever is in it. A place in Paradise as small as the bow or lash of one of you is better than all the world and whatever is in it. And if a houri from Paradise appeared to the people of the earth, she would fill the space between Heaven and the Earth with light and pleasant scent and her head cover is better than the world and whatever is in it.”

Hamletka ?

Yes, people here eat pork and drink alcohol all day, but you can say that you are vegan and you are safe (nobody will ask you stupid questions about your prophet or religion). There are oriental restaurants and other restaurants with vegan menu so you can eat pork-free meal every day.

S Melanson

They will try and use their influence over you to take you away from the religion of Islam

How about this:

We will use our influence in the form of a butcher knife over you or a barrel of a gun to deliver you into the religion of Islam (or you die)

Do you think Allah is impressed by your new ‘converts’ that pretend to pray in mosques? Clearly there is a problem with the strength of your religious convictions and faith in Islam if only by threat you have confidence in gaining converts.

I find your lack of faith disturbing…

ابوعبدالله العراقي

What about the option to pay jyzia? We always gave this option to the people of the book. And yeah there is fourth option you can leave our land without being killed or hunted down. Even if the first generation of converts are not true muslims their children will go to mosques and children of their children will also go to mosques and learn their religion so one day they will become true muslims.

World_Eye

Well Russia is strong World power under Putin, but after Putin I don’t know what Russia will be, but as for now Russia can measure its power with anyone if it really wants that.

frankly

Aggressive Russians at it again, confounding the experts by withdrawing.

Promitheas Apollonious

ok now all is left is to know how many of them also been replaced with fresh troops in need of war training. Because that kind of training you get only one way and that is to participate in war. War games are only good for one thing to impress the politicians and the ignorant brass.

War expiriense only is gained in war where they shoot you to kill you and is not a joke you get to relive another day. I think war games are an excellent rehearsal for hollywood movies, but never apply as many found out the very hard way in war. Especially in the most important part where you actually need to use your brain to save one self rather than follow an idiot who dont know where his ass from second base is.

And I say this from personal expiriense not because of something I think, in order to argue.

Boris Kazlov

I am sick of watching Putin declare mission accomplished just like Bush, no fanboys will explain that the chessmaster can bring forces back anytime, then what is the purpose of withdrawing them in the first place? No combat readiness. ISIS and murikans still there, so is Nusra, Israel and Turkey, where is the mission accomplished?. Come on fanboys/girls/LGBTQs

Promitheas Apollonious

Is time for Syrians to stand on their two feet, not Russia’s. Syrians have the best army now around the globe, in the kind of war they fight and are winning. And Russia’s support she will always have. On the other hand if you stop to think this war if it ever get out of hand then it will not be fought only in Syria or ME. No need for the russians to be in Syria since they not occupying it, but helping it and not the UK/Usrael way.

Boris Kazlov

I acknowledge defeat, U$AIPAC has accomplished its goals, to perpetuate the slaughter of Syria to justify its illegal presence with the pretext of “fighting ISIS”, which they nurture. Tovarish Commander Stalin, please come back!

Rob

Withdrawing forces and equipments from Syria will have highly detrimental effect on Russia and its future missions.

Afganistan was different, and it was very unpopular even within CCCP. Afganistan was a trap made by USA for USSR, and USSR were trapped in the trap, at that time.

You have poor history knowledge. In Afghanistan the US CIA very rapidly assassinated Afghani presidents in a very short time. Therefore, Afghani government requested to USSR to protect us from CIA snipers as in Ukraine.

This is why Russia has been shoving through the Constitutional Committee. The slow withdraw of Russians and the gradual overstretch of the SAA mean that we can expect a decrease in the size and number of SAA offensives. Meaning that Daraa will be taken and the slow eradication of ISIS cells and the slow pacification of the myriad street gangs will be effected but an offensive across the Euphrates or into Idlib or Afrin is highly unlikely.

Putin is in a hurry to finish the betrayal of Syria before his summit with Trump.

Sinbad2

Putin, actually Russia, it’s more than one man, has defeated the mighty USA in Syria, it will never be spoken of, because it would hurt Americas pride, but that’s the result, Russia won, America lost.

XRGRSF

Sinbad, I wish I could agree with you, but the fact is that Russia has pulled out while the U$ still occupies nearly half of Syria, and the U$ isn’t going anywhere. I remember when Nixon told the North Vietnamese that the U$ would come back if they attacked South Vietnam, but the U$ didn’t do a thing when the attack came. It will be the same with Putin.

RamboDave

Good points. You can see my comment above that elaborates on this. Putin already has a deal with Israel, and it will be put in writing next month at the Trump-Putin summit. Why else would neocon John Bolton even agree to this summit? Neocons are now in total control of Trump.The US Zionists controlled media will now do an about face and totally stop it’s demonization of Russia. It has already started.

XRGRSF

Roger on Israel, and the evil they are working throughout the world with the U$ as their bully. I completely agree with your position on the Neo-cons, Bolton, the Jews, and their control over Trump. I’ve also noticed that the U$ media is backing off of Russia. The question remaining is what will Putin do. If Putin tells Trump, politely of course, to piss up a wet rope it will all be over for the Neo-cons. Russia’s future is in the East, and in 20 years the U$ is going to be a side show. I think Putin understands this.

I have friends in Russia, and they don’t think the Russia electorate will take kindly to Putin if he sells out to the U$. Of course, if he does he’s saved his treachery for his last term, and doesn’t need to worry about reelection. The U$ raped Russia 20 years ago, and that’s like yesterday to the Russians. As we both know, the Russians may forgive, but they never forget.

We do indeed live in interesting times.

Sinbad2

By the time Nixon came to power, the US had already lost the Vietnam war.

Ignore the words of politicians, they lie for a living, it’s the actions that count. The US/Israel(same thing) have been funneling supplies to ISIS etc through Jordan for years, but with the Syrian army taking control of the border crossings, it’s game over for the US in western Syria.

XRGRSF

Agreed: The U$ entered the VN war to make money, and it was lost militarily from the day it started. When Iraq 2 was cranking up my wife asked if I thought we would really do it. We were watching the news, and the talking head had just said, “The Federal Reserve rate has not been this low for this long since 1965.” I explained to her (she’s a Brit) that 1965 was when the Gulf of Tonkin incident occurred, and we cranked up the war in S.E. Asia.

Politicians lie, and the Israelis are the children of Satan. However, I’m not convinced that the U$ will bail from Syria. Syria is too good a position from which to spread our fertilizer, and poison. Besides, the U$ can’t allow peace to break out in the Middle East; it’s bad for business.

Sinbad2

Yes, all wars are about money. LBJ sold most of Americas gold reserves, to support the dollar, when Nixon came to power, the cupboard was bare. Nixon had to default on the gold for dollars pledge, at the time he said it was temporary, but since that time the US has printed money at a staggering rate, and that debasement of the currency is about to bring the US undone. War is staggeringly expensive, and the US can’t afford to be continuously at war. Notice how most of the carrier task groups are in port? The same thing happened just before the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Richard M

Nixon was gone by the time the 1975 NVA Spring Offensive began. Watergate was tiddly winks compared to the Obama Hillzebub corruption of the government and weaponizing of the Alphabet Soup agencies.

Drogba

They are just rotating their forces,just like any Army would do,.What’s the big deal?Russia is not going to leave it’s forces in SYRIA weak and incapable of defending itself.This is organised well in advance by the Russian military.

Empire's Frontiers

This seems likely to be another troop rotation.

The mission has been evolving and the needs changing. From the requirements for sappers and MPs to the need for pilots and mechanics, things have changed as success has been logged.

With criminal violence perpetrated by the jihadist factions subsiding, tense diplomacy and civilian construction will flow.

The Russians ability and need for rotating and recomposing their forces in the region indicates the worst and most hopeless situation for the vanquished jihadis; that is another victory of the Syrian people.

ابوعبدالله العراقي

Wrong, all of that cost them enormous money and they simply don’t have that big budget to continue all of this at such scale. The propaganda effect of this involvement is wearing off and so is their motivation.

RamboDave

Why would Russia announce this withdrawal? It sounds to me like they have already made a deal, apparently with Israel. The removal of the aircraft is just a good faith move on Russia’s part.

The goal of Israel is to isolate Iran, and get Iran and their proxies out of Syria, and partition Syria along the Euphrates. The goal of Russia is to reduce US sanctions on it and normalize it’s takeover of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine.

Since Israel and it’s fifth column neocons, like John Bolton, control the US, the deal will be worked out at the Trump-Putin summit next month.

The deal also includes the following: …. Russia will make sure Iran and it’s proxies stay well away from the Golan, the SAA will not get an upgrade on their air defenses, and Russia will become a neutral observer East of the Euphrates. In exchange, Israel will call off it’s anti Russian neocon dog pack within the US, Russia will rejoin the G-8, Crimea will be downplayed or forgotten about in the Zionists controlled Western media. Trump, just last week, has already called for Russia to be re-admitted into the G-8.

Here below is the President speaking to Americans, who must obey him at all times.

The deal will have been made with the US, it’s the US that has deserted its terrorists in southern Syria.

RamboDave

True … the US has deserted it’s rebels in Southern Syria. But, you seem to be forgetting that it is Israel and it’s Gulf State allies that have been funding the Jihadist since before 2011. Israel is running the show. Israel’s Project for New American Century set forth the regime change plan in 1998 for 7 ME Countries. The Iraq war in 2003 was stage one – totally created and directed by Israel.

The US only got into the Syria game in 2012, and only then because it was Israel’s plan already being implemented and Obama could not resist the neocons.

Israel has run the show through it’s neocon fifth column in the US from the beginning. This article below will bring you up to date.

Wouldn’t withdraw anything until Southern Syria is cleared & E Euphrates settled w/ America.

Sinbad2

If the US once again breaks its agreement to leave Syria, the Russians will come back. But this time I think the US is done, their economy is collapsing, and they can’t even afford new bombs or missiles.

Tudor Miron

I would advise to not buy into this too much. It happened before but head choppers were way too quick to selebrate. Better whatch what happens on the ground – Syrian map turning red on daily basis.

Once again I ask SF moderators to clear that terrorist scum that is infesting this comments section.

BMWA1

Rotation.

Much more fun to laugh at the hasbara, globalist and neo-con trolls!

frankly

Here, here, what now we give the forum to ISIS chicks to propagate their pro EU nonsense? We all know if you don’t pledge anti Assad you may as well go home, rule #1!

Purge all the guest responses it makes for a non read.

Interesting long game. Head choppers to Europe, rational folks keep Syria.

So as the finals of cup wind down, then we get another NATO sponsored chemical false flag?

Oh as for withdrawal, practiced logistical exercise. Think of it as a leave to take in the cup games.

Shahna

Why?

Sinbad2

Because they have won, America has surrendered.

Shahna

And east of the Euphrates?

Sinbad2

In time, it’s all about appearences, they will set up others, then move out. The others, French Kurds etc will surrender, and America, at least in the eyes of the American people, will remain undefeated. BS is a very powerful weapon in the hands of Governments. Most Americans think the US won the Korean and Vietnam wars.

Shahna

“Most Americans think the US won the Korean and Vietnam wars.” ——————- “Most Americans think”….. …. Really? I hadn’t noticed.

Rats leave Titanic.

Hamletka ?

I think there are more lSlS people in Europe than in Syria now ?

Wise Gandalf

Can be.

OK see ya.

“27 Aircraft, 1,140 Personnel Withdrawn From Syria Over Past Days: Putin” Well… Putin means he won the war.. Only ASSAD didn’t, but who cares about such small details, if Israel is pleased?

Harvey Swinestein

Brilliant move by Putin. It looks good to the Russian public and also reconfirms Russia’s motives in Syria for the EU. Makes it look like Russia only wanted to stabilize the situation, as opposed to the US agenda, which appears to have no constructive or altruistic purpose. Meanwhile, there will be a whole new batch of troops and military equipment quietly sent into Syria to replace the ones that are currently leaving..lol

RichardD

Shoygu and crew are clearly highly competent. Putin doesn’t have time to run a war. But he put the right people in place to do it. Up to this point it’s been an outstanding success. The rest of the Syrian government coalition also deserve a lot of success.
