The Syrian military is deploying reinforcements to northern Hama and eastern Idlib reportedly preparing to launch a military operation to clear the militant-held pocket there. According to pro-government sources, additional units of Liwa al-Quds and the Qalamoun Shield Forces have already been deployed there.

The liberation of the pocket will allow the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and its allies to eliminate the ISIS threat in the area and to free additional resources for possible future operations in Idlib.

Kurdish YPG/YPJ forces have repelled another attack of the Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) and the Turkish-backed Free Syrian Army on Birsaya Mount but lost the village of Abudan.

The YPG denounced a report by the Turkish General Staff that at least 260 Kurdish fighters have been killed as a result of Ankara’s Operation Olive Branch and in turn claimed that 260 members of pro-Turkish forces, including tens of TAF soldiers, have been killed. The numbers provided by the both sides are clearly overestimated.

The YPG also rejected reports that it had reached an agreement with the SAA that will allow government forces to enter Afrin helping the YPG to repel the Turkish advance.

On January 24, a TAF military convoy reportedly entered Syria via the Atma station and reached the village of Tellet el-Is and the nearby hill in the province of Aleppo. The formal purpose of the move is to establish an observation point in the area under the de-escalation zone agreement reached during the Astana talks. Some sources speculate that this force may participate in the advance on Afrin.

On the same day, the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) captured the town of Gharanij from ISIS in the province of Deir Ezzor. ISIS reportedly lost 7 fighters, a vehicle and a bulldozer in the clashes there.

Clashes between the SDF and ISIS were also reported near al-Shaafah and Hajin where four SDF armoured vehicles were destroyed, according to the ISIS-linked news agency Amaq.

The US-led coalition also claimed that its airstrikes killed 140-150 ISIS members near al-Shaafah on January 20.

Since 1917 to 1920 Palestine was under British occupation. Then on 1 July 1920 the British regime handed over the control of Palestine to the Herbert Samuel the Zionist minister in the British cabinet and the first high commissioner to Palestine. Then in 1948 the British regime handed over Palestine to the illegal European migrants called Israel. So Palestine never got independence from foreign occupation. In 2018 Palestine is still under the occupation of illegal European migrants.

Mahmoud Abbas should immediately withdraw from the recognition of Israel which is the state of illegal European migrants, build on the homeland of Palestinians. For Palestine the recognition of state of Israel is like to put whole nation of Palestine under occupation of illegal European migrants.

Mahmoud Abbas should protest to the all world leaders that why you have recognized Israel which is the state of illegal European migrants in the homeland of Palestinians. Tell to all of them to immediately withdraw from the recognition of Israel. Once they withdrew from the recognition of Israel then Palestine will set free itself.

The world leaders will listen to Mahmoud Abbas because his whole nation is suffering under occupation. Mahmoud Abbas should not tell to any leader to recognize Palestine. If Mahmoud Abbas is looking for two states solution and prefer Israeli state on the homeland of Palestinians then even one inch land of Palestine cannot be freed. ———————————————————————————————————————————

The Zionist terror network Israel have kidnapped a 16 year old Palestinian youth Ahed Tamimi with assaulting Israeli terrorists.

There is a Zionist terror network headquarter (Israel) in Palestine which kidnapings and smuggling Palestinian, Jordanian, Syrian and Iraqi citizens by gunpoints and then using them in different terror activities in Middle East. This terror network using sophisticated technology for air strikes and land attacks on the citizens of the Middle East to protect and expand their terror network headquarter (Israel). This terror network headquarter must be shut down now.

A 16 year old Palestinian youth Ahed Tamimi along with her parents have been kidnapped by gunpoints. Nobody knows where they are now. This is not just one case, each year thousands of citizens including small kids disappear from the streets just in Palestine.

This terror network Israel have caused serious damage to the nations of Middle East. The allied forces of Russian, Palestinian, Lebanese, Syrian, Iraqi and Iranian played a key roll and rescued Lebanese, Syrian and Iraqi nations from the Zionist terror network. Now they should have to dismantle this Zionist network to set free all kidnap victims and save the nations from further suffering and bring durable peace to the whole region of the Middle East. ————————————————————————————————————————————

Seeing how fast they brought up reserves from there shield forces and taking advantage of the fsa push on the afrin area, however I am concerned it could be a little quick in launching! Waiting a week more allowing more units to be sucked into afrin would of been a bit more advantageous, but I suspect the SAA may have got intelligence giving a optimal green light. “As always wishing a speedy victory for the SAA”
