On October 28, Syria and Russia opened a floating bridge linking the two banks of Euphrates River in the province of Der Ezzor. The bridge links the towns of al-Mre’eyeh and Mrat. It was constructed thanks to assistance from and under protection of Russian forces.

Deir Ezzor governor Abdul Majid al-Kawakibi said that the bridge was constructed “in response to the needs and demands of the people in the governorate northern countryside”. The bridge will allow them “to communicate with the rest of governorate areas”.

Earlier, the US-led coalition destroyed all the bridges in the area. A part of them was destroyed in the framework of the coalition’s campaign against ISIS. Later, the destruction of the infrastructure was used as a tool to cut off the links between people in the US-occupied and government-controlled areas.

Pantsir required at this location.

klove and light

a dozen

Mike

Less then a dozen for your IQ.

Ceasar Polar

Panstir, TOR system, S300’s must be activated in the region. Next step, regain control of oil fields. Let’s see how long the US-mercenaries can linger around the oil wells.

BMWA1

Depends also on govt. in Iraq

Jens Holm

Yes. He might have a win95 and Age of Empires too being able to restart the hard stuff, so its comming itself fro free and untouched.

Ceasar Polar

Age of empires is a great game. So as Command & Conquer, gotta a problem with that ?

Jens Holm

Troops are no problem. Its about You are important in the next Trump campaign for American internal elections.

Damien C

The destruction of the bridges by US forces was part of the oil-kidnapping programme to starve the Syrian government of the ability to raise funds to fight the head-choppers, thus increasing the likelyhood of the break up of the country.

This would progress the dismemberment of Syria allowing Israel to seize large swathes of farm land in the south and as far into Syria as eastern ghouta were they could divert the water needed by Damascus to irrigate the stolen lands that they had taken.

gustavo

Yes, this is true,, but we must not forget that SAA-Russia had the possibility to cut any SDF advance at Al-Raqqah,Deir-Ezzor,Al-Mayadin, and Al-Bukamal, and they DID NOTHING to stop SDF advance. Sorry, but facts are facts. Esxcuses, you can find a thousnd of them.

BMWA1

Early 2017….were the forces required there at hat time? Its easy to look at maps but what are the realities?

Jens Holm

Gustava and others here has no relations to any realities. They construct as they wish. Its taken as parrots copy paste and the best lies get many + + +, because thats their hot dreams from under their bed blankets.

What actually happens is relative well described here at these pages.

Concrete Mike

That is false, the SAA with russian assistance had deployed floating bridges in deirnez zor city in 2017, but then the dickweed SDF flooded the river using tabqa dam, how nice of the kurds to help isis in that way Now that Syria controls tabqa, we can proceed with more bridges.

The did do something, but they were thwarted by SDF, sdf that was directly helping isis by flooding the river.

Selective memory do yoy? Anything to shit on russia ??

PZIVJ

Notice the cable lines to help against the river current, looks like it can handle a transport with tank aboard? Appears to be in the same area as the bridge in 2017. Leading to Marrat, about in the center of the SAA bridgehead on the north east shore.

Jens Holm

Its a classical constrution. The cable often has smaller pipelines with water or fuel as well.

Luke Hemmming

You are correct. I remember reading those reports too. They attempted at least 2 times I can recall. All to no avail because of the US and the SDF. When they attempted to repair them they were fired upon.

Jens Holm

Twice is correct. There was a number 4, but it seemes to have been a fake.

There was no good reasosn for Assads should cross at all. They only was spoilers at SDFs and Americans and made big losses against ISIS there, and next by SDFs and USAAF.

Ceasar Polar

Most probably the SDF listened to US’s orders which was indirectly helping the isis, the Turds opps sorry the Kurds were just pawns in the Syrian theater. Right now discarded by the US, since isis has been defeated by Russia/Syria/Iran/hezbollah and certainly not Trump or zionazi-US.

Jens Holm

Another bi polar non sense.

I am sure USA at that time was in Syria for fighting against ISIS eve it could make sense ISIS could be a good thing, when and if they only attacked Assads.

And Yes, at that time the SDF HQ had high qualified planners coordinating SDFs as well as other helpers.

SDF certainly has taken their parts in % of defeating ISIS, and they started as almost nothing.

Assads has several 100.000 soldiers to start with and after that has got many soldiers fromHesbollah, Iran and Russia.

Ceasar Polar

Sorry i stopped at “USA fighting isis”. It’s whether you been watching so much CNN and mainstream media that you truly believe this BS, or you are just a paid troll and spread controlled narrative zionazi-propaganda. And Assad has over 300000 soldiers in the SAA alone, Russia 1500, hezbollah used to have a presence of 10000 soldiers. You clearly believe you know something where you know what they fed you. Pathetic danish-zionazi-troll.

Jens Holm

Turks has done it with SDFs several times fx giving no water for electricity by Tisren as well as Tabqa dam.

Assads has done it too in the Homs or Hama district making a power plant driven by water completly dry. It also was used for defence.

As usual You only remember what the enemy do wrong. And as Gustavo, You seemes to create reasons based on hardly nothing.

Oil is same thing. At that time SDFs didnt take the Tabqa oil fields and ISIS had the bigger ones around Palmyra as well as the many small at the “Assad side” of DEZ.

You even make it into helping ISIS. I remember Kurds just had taken Tabqa and then they were airstriked by SAF.

I also remember Assads screemed and shouted for SDFs to help them to take DEZ. When SDF by their best troops finally was able to strech that far in troops and supply having an exelent plan to divide and defeat ISIS at their side, the were heavy artillery bombarded by Assads. No wonder they after that didnt want Assads at that bank.

SDFs then retreated and took the high ground above the valleys(Eufrat and Khabour), and then they were – as today – was blamed for taking oil as well as the defenders there was none or joined SDFs.

Thats what Your one eye or less has out of Your mind.

And in stead of SDFs defeated ISIS at their borderside, Your Russian crossing met well regrouped ISIS troops even they onl were digged in ordinary trenches and foxholes. You didnt let SDFs do the job.

Furthermore the troops crossing were tired, where notmany and had little supply. Russians had to bombarde ISIS away.

And then it wasnt strange those eroded troops of Yours never could penetrate SDFs having some airsupport as well.

Thats how it was. Assads never shoud have crossed anything there apart from the Islands in DEZ city itself. Those troops should have reached out and grapped Abu Kamal having a simplified but much stronger logistics letting Kurds have, what what military sense for everuýbody else.

Then later Assads and SDFs could negosiate about it or the much bigger Assad troops could knock out SDFs …

And of course You also forget, that ISIS constantly regrouped by easy crossing Eufrat. When there is not much water in Eufrat You even can find places, where technical with almost no help can cross.

And here You dont metion Americans and also Russians took as many local boats out, as they could.

Jens Holm

Assads wasnt able to come even near Tabqa and the óther bridges for Raqqa if SDFs not already was there.

Assads even after that great help came slowly for that.

A proof could be Year and month for all the bridges, but of course what can we expect from random brownies comming out from You behind with hay.

In those days Assads was far away an d very busy in other parts of the country. Only several 1000 spendable Assad troops and mountains of lost supply man vehicles made it possible.

Jens Holm

I dont see oil and bridged connected æike thatt at all. Assads wasnt even there, and there was nott even a single sign Assads ever would come back.

Another memory lack. It would help a lot if You read Syria Live UA more often. There are pictures for the ones, which cant read and write as well.

Ivan

How symbolic! USA is destroying bridges among people, while Russia is building them.

palegreendot

Absolutely. American foreign policy is nothing if not reliably demonic. Even when they openly state that the goal isn’t “regime change”…it always has been going back several decades…they persist in the attempt to undermine Syria’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.

Ceasar Polar

They hide behind a war on isis where in fact they are actively attacking Syrian infrastructure. US out of Syria!

Jens Holm

Thats not correct. The target number one any time was to remove Assads, let moderate Bathists being mixed up with the real opposition or reduce Assads.

Here ISIS came out of hand and became target number one, because they did as Al Qaida and behaqved as Internationals.

Somebody removed Your memorystick, or You have none, or is not allowed noyt to lie about this too.

Хасен Жасем Халфет

are we ignoring the fact that ISIS and al qaeda both were created armed and financed by the CIA ? isn’t it hypocricy to pretend the US was suprised by the Rise of ISIS ? I mean literally the biggest winner of ISIS presence was the US. now they have a presence in a country where they never entered before: Syria.

Mike

Danish monkey post shit again.

Peter Jennings

The destruction of Syria was plan B and a consequence of plan A. A favoured last resort of all spoiled children.

Joao Alfaiate

What vital America interest is at stake in who rules Syria? This is all about the interests of israel and demonstrates once their control of US foreign “policy”.

Jens Holm

Syria is runned as private property by Baathists just as Moscow did with Communisme.

Ceasar Polar

Lol, you just revealed your true face as a zionist-scum-troll. Long Live Assad! Long live Syria! Hezbollah, PMU, Houthis, and much more coming your way (israHelli cunt).

Mike

Danish faget, can you go kill yourself now.

Jens Holm

No reflections from You, just parrot writing.

It is not allowed for any in the whole world to debate any improvements for fx Syria.

BASTA, there are 3 options only for Syria: 1) Primitive Baathisme with central control and the country driven by centralisme not reaching important improvements 2) Jihadisme pr definisme is bad and 3) Marxisme in a modified and modern version always ia worse because Kurds by definition are worse and low.

As for Lebanon and Iraq, there are NO TOOLS for any improvements even they are all over the world, and Syria partly could implement good and needed solutions.

How can You ever accept coruptions and threfore also lack of investments for improvements. How can it be the best solution, that 50% not even has a low paid jobs(and women close to 100%).

One of the main lacks are, there are no advanced structures giving trust but also respondability. Also there is hardy any motivation to work better giving reward in stead of being passive and unproductive.

None of those well described facts has anything to do with Westerns, USA and Jews. None.

You are kept as lazy bum sheep,because anything else is punished hard. I certainly is no Marxist, but their proposals vertainly is much better then Assads and Jihadisme, because those proposals implement tools, which not even is allowed to exist.

You are not ecen able or allowed to comment facts like that and any changes and Your primitive answer is : Fagot remaining as such one Yourself.

Ceasar Polar

Jens is a rocket nose based in Occupied Palestine dressed in Danish clothing

Joao Alfaiate

Better by Baathists than Zionists.

Rhodium 10

Because the main target is to invade Syria like they did in Irak and Afganistan!..ISIS or Al Qaeda is only a useful tool to “clear roads”…but they have failed in Syria since 2015 when Russian armed forces arrived!…

Tudor Miron

ISIS and Queda is nothing other than irregular armed forces of UK/US/Israel.

Jens Holm

Never heard before. Never heard befoire. And You forgot SDF as well as dirty small FSA.

Jens Holm

Yes Russia also blocked for any possible chane for the better. It would be quite different, if the very different Jihadists incl. ISIS had taken over.

USA might be wrong that should be better, but still having Assads for Syrians is Russian making some kind of ground zero.

I see no solutions but only change in chaos.

Istrazuj

How much AngloZionists pay you to write this rubish? … The best way is to block such idiots directly.

Jens Holm

Istrazujsky research Istrazujsky and find a very small 0 with a very big minus in front of it.

Ceasar Polar

Zionist troll detected. Danish clothing, rocket nose 100% confirmed

Ceasar Polar

Excellent question, i always wondered how paid trolls gets paid to sell their online voice.

Jens Holm

Thats not correct as well. The symbol is You lie as most of the rest.

Ceasar Polar

The troll Jens Holm have been active last night

Mike

Not enough kurdish semen there jenny.

occupybacon

In Donetsk they bowed them up

Mike

Oh get over Ukraine you stupid canuck.

AM Hants

Slightly off topic, but, so needs sharing.

Veteran Journalist Goes Off Script, Exposes OPCW’s Douma Evidence Suppression on BBC… https://sputniknews.com/military/201910281077167657-opcw-douma-bbc-steele/

Concrete Mike

Yes i saw that as well, very good, lets all work together to expose this farce of an investigation!!!

Ceasar Polar

The white helmets killed people to stage that fake chemical attack. White helmets also were caught scavenging bodies of both isis and regular army fighters of organs! (Organ traffic is HUGE in IsraHell, go wonder why). Whiter helmets is the biggest form of corruption arabs can show, selling their own people for some cash and drugs. What a joke, hiding behind Humanitarian cause, reminds me of other “humanitarian” entities that actually represents the Rothschild’s and co, Amnesty internation, Red-Cross…

Joao Alfaiate

More on the White Helmets:

http://www.unz.com/pgiraldi/an-imperfect-bit-of-statecraft/

Ceasar Polar

Good read thanks. That pretty much sums up the present Syrian situation

Jens Holm

Sprutnik hardly is any source any can rely on.

Ceasar Polar

Lol. What to trust CNN ? Or BBC ? Or wait i24news ? Sputnik, RT, VT, SF, PressTV all reliable. Certainly NOT BBC or CNN, or Fox, or any ZioNazi-scum media

Cronos Sin Apellidos

About the map… I think SAA should try to fully control at least the one oil field in the extreme northeast. Put USA forces aside. It could be a symbol for US forces that they must begin to respect the national army.

Ceasar Polar

And secure the irak-syrian border, the US seem to use that side a lot.

Jens Holm

That make no sense. None attack each other there and Your wish also is impossible to fullfill.

Iraq-Syria not even cover Al Tanf – Qaim aprt from some few strongpints here and there.

Ceasar Polar

My wish is to corner US-zionazi-scums and force them to leave Syria’s oil fields. Also the remnants of the daeshi soldiers are “evacuated” from that side… so time to secure Syria’s border to clean house of US-Zionazi-supported-terrorists.

Jens Holm

Haha. Adnd its no national army as well.

AM Hants

Nice summary of events in Syria, by Thierry Meyssan, Voltaire Net.

ALL THAT IS HIDDEN FROM YOU ABOUT THE TURKISH OPERATION “SOURCE OF PEACE” (3/3) The Turkish invasion of Rojava by Thierry Meyssan… https://www.voltairenet.org/article208010.html

FlorianGeyer

The Thierry Meyssan report has much merit, AM. Has a war ever been as complicated as this? No wonder the US is struggling :)

AM Hants

The article made sense. The US would not have had a problem, if it was not for people not accepting the old style, regime change script and all the characters involved. So glad for Syria, that they stood firm and did not roll over and let the pillagers take it all.

Ralph London

With very critical help from Russia, without Putin’s help who knows what a hell Syria would be like now.

Tudor Miron

Just look at Libia – what a paradise of freedom and democracy dropped from NATO warplanes. People almost forgot that some years ago (before NATO invasion) Libia had one of the highest level of living for its population.

Concrete Mike

We have tabqa dam now, good luck flooding the river SDF peices of shit!!

Pepperidge Farms remembers!!!

AJ

Assad now controls the hydroelectric dams supplying all the electricity to the area.

PZIVJ

Yes, Syria can also now bring down or control the rate of flow on the Euphrates downstream. So a floating bridge is possible.

Jens Holm

Thats not correct. The worst changes has been made by Turks.

Jens Holm

It was given to the Syrian technicians just after it was taken by Americans and SDFs because they could not repair it.

Hassadnah Abraham

American are making fool of all Muslim

U.S army invaded Syrian and Iraqis land, it is the duty of every muslim to fight American invasion. Why SDF are so stupid by allowing US to stole Syrian oil. All Muslim have capability and it is holy war to fight American invasion on Muslim land

Jens Holm

Much like some muslims make fools of themselves. They dont need West and USA to do it.

“every muslim”. This is no religios war at all. Assads stole the oil from the rest of the Syrians and USA cant steal oil from there.

Do You know where Syria is?

Mike

Oh fuck off you kurdish raped Dane, you kurdish fuckers are the thieves of Syria’s oil you stupid little whore.

RichardD

This is certainly very good news and it’s a fine looking bridge. It stops boat traffic, but most locals would rather have a functional bridge for the time being. Until one that allows boat traffic can be built.

Jens Holm

So far there hardly are any boats as Eufrat at all. They all are bombarded way mainly by USA but also Russia.

Jens Holm

It took time. They should grow the tree for it first:)

Fred Dozer

Old news but the truth matters, to some.

Now the truth emerges: how the US fuelled the rise of Isis in Syria and Iraq. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jun/03/us-isis-syria-iraq

Jens Holm

That only was true, when USA supported ISIS several Years ago. Good maps for smugling are available.

Adter that USA systematicly has bombarded all oil facilities down, so none fueld could be poroduced.

Nothing has emerged. So You have outdated news even well decriebed by Internet and fx wikipedia. The difference seemes to be, You now very late know about that period too.
