On January 5, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) continued its advance toward the besieged Armored Vehicles Base east of the city of Damascus and captured the al-Bshr Hospital in Harasta district north of the base, according to pro-government sources. Thus, the SAA is deployed within 250 meters from the base.
Pro-government activists reported that the SAA had destroyed Ahrar al-Sham Movement fortifications around the Armored Vehicles Base with dozens of Syrian-made Golan rockets.
From its side, the pro-opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said that the SAA had killed 77 fighters of the Ahrar al-Sham Movement, Faylaq al-Rahman and Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) around the Armored Vehicles Base during the last few weeks. The SOHR report confirmed that the attack was conducted not only by Ahrar al-Sham as several Syrian oppositions outlets had claimed.
The Ahrar al-Sham Movement besieged dozens of SAA soldiers and officers inside the Armored Vehicles Base on December 30. The SAA launched a counter-attack to break Ahrar al-Sham siege on January 4. If the counter-attack results in a success, the SAA will likely go on to capture all the district of Harasta.
That whole pocket has to go , stop with the hesitation , get it done . Then Homs , then Idlib .
The Jew world order terrorists are using civilian human shield hostages. The Syrian government coalition is trying to minimize civilian casualties. Which is why you see a lot of negotiated withdrawals of opposition fighters and deescalation agreements.
very true….urban warfare is a total nightmare for civilians, infrastructure etc. if you care you just dont bomb the whole place…..(us has done that many times, israel as well)…..that explains why the terrorists have been allowed to occupy this territory just a few blocks from the centre of Damascus
I swear if they use a few BMP-T’s in this offensive I’ll wet my pants from seeing them in actual combat even if its 2 or 4.
Partly fake news. Opposition forces have video’s showing them inside of the base buildings. See @worldonalert. / @hastara
As warned, those can be gross videos but better than fake news. The fourth pic was already posted 20hours ago (@hastara), so as of yesterday. Again, fake news.
Pity for SF.
Thanks for the alternative site to look at as I have no problem looking at all sides. This war is total madness and an absolute waste of lives and suffering , for what ???. The videos aren’t that gross and of course slanted in favor of that sides view just like all other sites.What is fake and what is real . who knows in war. The truth can be whatever you want it to be.. Been there , done that and got the medal..
Most is part propaganda, I agree.
Me…too Agree
When being given an alternative site by dutchnational you are likely being directed to a pro opposition or western backed site the latter is the standard case as many have links to being funded by NATO intelligence be careful of spyware on these sites.
Did you read what I said. I said they were slanted in favor of their sides view. I am well aware of propaganda and bullshit in war. I directly participated in an event similar to My Lai and the massive bullshit coverup in a war years ago where the truth was changed to reflect the exact opposite of what really happened. I am well aware that dutchnational has an alternative view but I have no fear of being tainted by what he says or shows.I am prepared to look and listen too his viewpoint but I will see the truth as I want to see it not because someone else is trying too steer me in their direction.
Just warning about these sites containing malware and spyware , going onto these sites of the opposition have more malware and cookies than usual.
Thanks for that , duly noted..
Fascinating isnt it, the Hasbaratnjiks and various leagues of creeps, whining, and somehow, they need to show of something, to somehow undermine everything, and despite the set backs, children, they still continue, I am in awe, but hey, we live in demoCrautic time, so a bit manure must be expected and tolerated, can be ignored but like Goose poop in the forest, a bit annoying but not harmful. To me, they know, and I know, they are loosing, again, this fall, have been unprecedented, never have I believed, since I started, that this day would come, the emperor is butt naked, throws accusations and innuendos, in every direction, makes the WH to an Dali like experience of surrealism.
Its like those whom if “hammering” Iranian Gov. this days, Free Iran, huh, to whom, not an sound. What kind of “Iranians” would that be, the same scums that have an burned sign of the Wankee dollar on their forehead, or some, uh….. genuine Iranians, but to then “prove” the uh….. economy, lists about how bad it is, well, juts change the label to the UssA and others, and I guess the list will be unchanged, with the sole exception of sanctions, etc.
In Syria, creeps, the problem isnt this pockets, the problem is back stabbers and turn coats, where deals are gone the moment they leave the house, and the bonkers Wankees and the NATO force, with the Kurds, whom again showed their lack of trust and credibility by attacking Iran. How stupid and short sighted is it possible to be Kurds.
peace
