The Russian military has deployed a number of attack helicopters at Abu Adh Dhuhur Air Base which is located right on the administrative border between Idlib and Aleppo in northern Syria.

On June 10, Russian sources shared photos showing the helicopters, which were identified as Ka-52s and Mi-24/35s, at the air base. Some of the helicopters were covered with camouflage netting.

In January 2018, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) liberated Abu Adh Dhuhur and its surroundings after a fierce battle with al-Qaeda and Turkish-backed militants.

Abu Adh Dhuhur is located just 25 kilometers from the main frontline around the Greater Idlib region, where al-Qaeda-affiliated Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and the Turkish-backed National Front for Liberation (NFL) are in control.

According to recent reports, HTS and the NFL are preparing to launch a large-scale attack on the SAA and its allies in the western Aleppo countryside with indirect support from Turkey. The attack will be meant to distract the army from any Turkish operation against Kurdish forces in the northern countryside of Aleppo.

The Russian military may have deployed the attack helicopters in Abu Adh Dhuhur to provide the SAA with close air support in case of any attack by HTS and the NFL. A quick, powerful first response will be needed to stop any such surprise attack.

Russia has been taking concrete steps to deter Turkey and its proxies, who appear to be planning to escalate on more than one front at the same time.

Perhaps Russia may be taking the Kurds away from US control?

Russia must utilize Precision Weapons as generally are more effective and on target with better results and less risk. “One shot one kill”. The two round burst is an excellent addition to the new rifles as goes along with better results with less rounds. A small 5x or 4x scope for all troops should be standard equipment. These are inexpensive and greatly effective.
