Artillery units shelled the area of the artillery college.

It looks like that the situation encouraged the command staff’s optimism. A crew of ANNA News arrived in the noon. It received a proposal to move to the aviation college by a BMP vehicle.

We could see a flimsy wall with apertures narrowed with whatever comes to hand. Holes in the wall allows to see that the wall does not defend from heavy machine gun-like weapons (probably it can stop 7.62 round). The building itself is likely always full of dust if it’s under fire. No doubts why both sides run from this site after any sign of an advance on it.

A majority of soldiers don’t wear helmets. Helmets could be seen near the aperture .(right corner) A lack of body armours is also the issue. However, the video allows to see an interesting person in a body armour and a helment. (left corner)

Who is the? Commander? Nope, the t-shirt allows to understand who is that. It’s a passenger of the BMP – Russian jouranlist, Evgeny Poddubnyy.

It’s a bad idea to advice Poddubny about a personal security. Nonetheless, it seems that his look makes him an attractive target for militants including snipers. An expensive body armour and helmet and a lack of personal weapon make him alike to a military adviser. A lack of a portable radio set is the only difference. However, this time Poddubny had a competitor.

Black glasses, a baseball cap, a helmet, a body armour, elbow-pads, knee-pads, cartridge pouches etc… Meanwhile, the real military commander looked this way.

No arms, no body armour, two radio sets (one – to contact soldiers, another one – to contact the command staff). The video says that he’s a brigadier general. However, there were only about two dozens of soldiers in the building.

The BMP beeped and all moved to the next target.

During the first visit of the academy on August 17, we could see some Arabic words on its walls. Probably militants believed that Arabic words were not enough to deliver the message to the message to the international audience. So they added some comments in English.

There were some problems in English grammar but it’s possible to read “JIBHAT ALNUSRA” and “TAVHID VE JIHAD”. Furthermore, “moderate rebels” forgot that for that Jabhat al-Nusra had changed its name to Jabhat Fateh al-Sham. But who cares?

A building near the academy was the deepest position of Liwa al-Quds.

The commander said that there are only 3 high buildings inside the complex: the aviation college, the Yellow Building and the artillery college – as soon as they are captured, the complex will be under the control of government forces.

Great words.

It’s nice that all finished ok. But some questions appear. Could the command order the Shilka self-propelled gun or battle tanks to suppress militant firing positions the militant-held area around the Yellow House? Was it really needed to send two TV crews through a live fire zone? The two BMP had been already damaged on this road and the militant firing positions were not captured.

Following the incident, the Shilka self-propelled gun started shelling of militant positions.

In the evening of the same day, the BMP made another journey to the aviation college. A problem occurred during the return. While the vehicle was preparing to move back, the ATGM crew was preparing for a strike.

The missile was flying 6-8 seconds from the firing position to the target. The BMP driver used this time in order to avoid the missile hit.

It’s clear that the manoeuvring was result of the characteristics of the road. They were not a skillful attempt to avoid the missile. They key role played the moment when the vehicle started moving.

On September 1, the situation was relatively calm. Government forces continued artillery strikes and airstrikes on the artillery college. The pumping station near the artillery college was heavily damaged. Meanhile, government forces were concentrating means and measures and militants didn’t likely have resources for major counter-attacks. During the night, government forces evacauted the damaged T-72 battle tank. Active developments took place on September 2.

Controlling the partly captured Yellow Building and the nearby buildings, militants were able to shell a supply line to government troops in the aviation college. This is why government forces attempted to solve this problem.

The two-storey buildings were the main obstruction for taking full control over the Yellow Building. They overlooked the area near the Yellow Building and were enough solid to remain under the shelling.

The advance started when the Shilka self-propelled gun launched shelling of these buildings.

The missile hit the right side of the vehicle. There was no fire. Nonetheless, the BMP motor is located in this part of the vehicle. So, the BMP was likely heavily damaged.

Units deployed in the complex needed supplies. Thus, another BMP vehicle was deployed.

It looks like government forces took a pause after the recent losses. No active military developments took place during the day. Another offensive attempt took place on the night of Sptember 3 to 4. The offensive was launched in the direction of the Ramouseh neighborhood and the artillery college. Meanwhile, the Tiger Forces advanced from the Um Al Qara hill into the area of the armament college.

This vehicle avoided a hit on August 31 and survived on September 2. (when many BMP vehicles were hit) But the question is why does the BMP need a gunner if no BMP fires at militants during voyages. Probably, the answer is that the second member of the crew helps to unload the vehicle and replases the driver if it’s needed.

The BMP evacuated bodies of the dead soldiers.
