Dozens of militants from different armed groups in southern Idlib were reportedly eliminated by the Russian Aerospace Forces and the Syrian Arab Air Force (SyAAF) in the late hours of July 2.
Pro-government activist said that warplanes of the SyAAF targeted several positions of the al-Qaeda-affiliated Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) in the towns of Khan Shaykhun and Hobit killing at least 35 fighters of the group and injuring many others.
At the same time, Russian warplanes carried out several airstrikes on an underground base of the National Front for Liberation (NFL) near the town of Madaya. The pro-government al-Masdar News blog said that 15 fighters of the Turkish-backed group were killed as a result.
Both, the TIP and the NFL are close allies of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the former branch of al-Qaeda in Syria. The terrorist group and its allies control over 90% of Idlib, as well as large parts of northern Lattakia, northern Hama and western Aleppo.
The aerial operations of the Russian Aerospace Forces and the SyAAF have dealt a major blow to HTS and its allies in Greater Idlib. However, without effective ground operations, these groups will likely maintain their control over the region.
East and west Germany united into one without any fight. China and Pakistan united as one without any fight.
Can Turkey and Syria unite without any fight? Yes why not. If leaders are united then nations will itself unite.
Similarly Saudia and Iran can unite if their leaders are unite.
India and Pakistan can also unite if their leaders are unite.
Can U.S. and Mexico unite…? Not without a fight. Don’t be so absurd Rob. And where does Turkey stop? Israel, Bulgaria… Greece?
Of course why not if their leaders unite.
So you want Erdogan creating an Erdogan Ottoman Empire?
If you have evil thinking then you will like divisions of nations. You will never like reconciliation between nations. The division of nations bring hate and instability to the rigion.
No, I like identity, cultural identity, distinction.
Then stay indoor at home. Don’t come out to the world.
Rob people like yourself are is exactly what is wrong with the world today, attempting to put a Neoliberal square peg through a Neoconservative round hole, all the time. (whether peoples want it or not, you screwballs know best)
What you are suggesting does not work,never has and never shall, but a lot of wasted blood,sweat and tears shall be shed proving the fact.
Keep your identity with Adam and eve. Follow his culture, cultural identity, distinction. If you think you are unique with supper power. So then this is your imagination. Unique is one not all. We all are similar without supper power.
I think you might need an “edit” (or two) there Rob. Don’t want to act superior though, you might take offense.
Have a nice day. See you soon. Good bye.
You are not an experienced person. Otherwise you would see the world from a right angle.
It looks like your have in mind a wonderful ideal world with benefit for all as a goal. Yes, that is possible if there is a genetic total change in the brain of humanity.
Not genetic rather need to reprogram their minds.
We have studied in schools that two are better than one and three are better than two. I mean union is strength. If Erdogan was so genius to unite all these countries without fight, to be honest first of all I would join Erdogan policy.
What Erdogan idea is that’s not work in this current time. Erdogan should take a class with Xi.
but this is the plan…… DIVIDE and CONQUER……… call them elite/freemasons/illuminati as u please….. it is the Agenda that Counts…. divide and conquer!!!
I am agree with you.
The assad family is the problem and you know it .
Good Idea but Erdogan will never he has a satans heart worship satan very greedy sheik just like Saudi sheiks.Putin must send in ground troops in idlip and deploy Russian military Police with Syrian Military Police.Call UNSC meeting for immediate withdrawal of Turkey and USA,France and Britain.
In most Arab states there is a serious vacuum of leadership. Most of Arab leaders have no any other assignment except personal domestic activities. That is why Israel make their foreign policies. Leader should be active and not passive.
50 out of 50,000 ? Good, better than nothing.
The Syrian war can be end with in one day if Erdogan drop weapons and hug Assad. I am not in favour of this blood shade both sides.
Erdongan will not stop doing that (Turkey is a NATO member). In addition, if Russia must stop pleasing Turkey and Israel.
Israel have fucked US, UK, EU and Soviet Union because Israel operate US and UK hardware, Cyber security, intelligence and banks.
Israel is a weakling little state that could be permanently ended with a single strike. Delusions of grandeur much???
Or Russia can cease to exist ???? , will happen the people are not with the terrorist thieving dicktater anymore , say bye boss .
Putin’s recent approval rating is 73 percent. Nice try though. Russia has the capability to nuke Canada and its US master out of existence within minutes, sucker.
dreams
It’s time to attack, they are getting stronger because SAA keeps respecting borders
I wonder whats the ratio of killed fighters/newcomers from Turkey
Rocket Nose will NOT be happy :)
Then there is only 119 950 radical militants in Idlib left according to Mint Press……………..LOL.
Ha Ha Ha russian aerospace fuccin kidding right .
Russia should pess off home now. They do nothing than Syria, Lebanon and Iran cant do 10x better. Traitors from the very beginning to please “our equal partner”. https://www.globalresearch.ca/israels-latest-strikes-syria-prove-jerusalem-summit-success/5682331
The fact the Russians are finally bombing the NFL is the best news, they usually seem to concentrate more on HTS and Al Nusra and only on the odd occasion attack the FSA/NFL/SLF, but these three groups do more damage to the SAA than HTS and Al Nusra do, far more.
