Two Turkish soldiers were killed and five others were injured in the so-called Greater Idlib region in northwest Syria, the Turkish Ministry of National Defense acknowledged on February 20.
In a short press release, the ministry said that the slain and injured soldiers were allegedly implementing a ceasefire in the Syrian region. The ministry didn’t provide any further details.
Turkish sources said that the service members were killed and injured in Syrian airstrikes on a Turkish observation post located near the town of Qaminas in the southern Idlib countryside.
However, opposition activists and some observers noted that the same Turkish post was also targeted by Russian Su-24 warplanes.
Eelier today, the remaining militants in Greater Idlib launched a large-scale attack on Syrian Arab Army (SAA) positions in the town of al-Nayrab, south of Qaminas. The Turkish military provided the militants with direct fire support and heavy weapons.
The SAA repelled the attack in the matter of a few hours with support from the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS). Turkish-backed militants sustained catastrophic losses in the failed attack.
TURKEY SOLDIER are thier to provide ceasaefire of to support terriost with direct fire on SAA. turks are liars.
Blood for the Blood God! May turkish corpses pile up in mountains, their spilled blood flowing in crimson rivers! Worthless cockroaches all of them.
Those 2 were just simple soldiers send to Syria because of wet dreams of their ruling elites. As for crimson rivers there is an Orthodox Christian Saint prophecy that says Turkey will be conquered and 1/3 of Turks would be killed by the non-Greek Orthodox Christian army in the last days. And in the fight for Constantinople will die so many Turks that blood will flow as rivers at the streets of the city. There will be so much blood that in that river a bull can sink.
A sight to see. I hold no sympathies for these turkish vermin, ancient enemies of Europe.
The glorious “final Hurra” failed miserably. Turkey is begging US now for Patriot Missiles to establish a no flight zone on their own, seems their homemade AA isn´t up to the task. (Spoiler: The Patriots aren´t either)
They can always deploy the S-400. LOL.
That made me laugh xD
Hahahhahahah! I don’t think the Russians sold them those without having a way to jam them or even perhaps self destruct. The US has a similar policy with their equipment that’s why they get mad if someone buys Air Defences and planes that are not theirs that they can’t jam….Same as to why they are warning everyone against Huawei 5G and telling everyone its bad for your hoohoos and ninis while they offer their own 5G(WHICH THEY DON’T HAVE)…So yeah!There is a reason the Turks can’t deploy the S-400 because as it stands,they are probably totally deactivated
I’m not certain about the technical limitations in targeting Russian aircraft but for certain there was/is a contractual obligation not to use them outside of Turkey and not on Russian aircraft outside of defending Turkish airspace. No doubt also that the sales agreement includes not allowing third parties access to the equipment. Violate the agreement and 1) no more equipment 2) no more missiles 3) no service. But surely also Russia can jam the targeting radars, they built them.
And the Russians use GLONASS systems of course they know how to jam them…Unless the Turks try to upload GPS on them…Hhahahahahhaha! Who knows
The S-400 Turks will label the Russian planes as “friend”. A NATO state air defense system would label Russian aircraft as a ” friend”. It is funny. But not so much for Turkey.
There is always a foe or friend identification beacon in all SAM. At a flip of switch, S400 will also lost Glanos GPS signal, even to shut down.
Russians don’t use GPS smartaçç …Hhahahahhaha! Inform yourself. What are you 5? Try to find out what is GLONASS kid
Yah smart ass, didn’t i mentioned GLONASS GPS? Just incase some don’t understand, as GPS is a universal standard term. China also call theirs Beidou GPS.
Global’naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema, (GLObal NAvigation Satellite System or GLONASS)
GPS= Global Positioning System
Hahahaha haha! You are just too stupid to boot. GLONASS was made as a rival to GPS as you have mentioned in the abbreviations they abbreviations they are NOT THE SAME THING. This is not like the COLA WARS of America that dominated the 70s and 80s and 90s. Grow a brain will you? GLONASS is just GLONASS and GPS is just GPS. One is Russian with 26 satellites to support it and the other is American with 33 satellites to support it. PERIOD! Use Google smart/tvrd. Don’t just go full retard. You never go full retard! You happen to argue with quite an educated individual here so tread carefully. Hahaha hahahaha! GLONASS GPS???
If such silly picking & argument make you feel proud & happy for the day, go ahead mate.
The total U.S. military count, however, excludes civilian contractors on the base at the time, many of whom have since departed with severe trauma due to the accuracy and payload of Russian GLONASS guided Iranian missiles.
U.S. troops also suffered from anxiety-related symptoms after the attack, including sleeplessness and, in at least one case, a sustained high heart rate, according to interviews with soldiers and officials. However, they could not provide a specific number.
The Pentagon categorizes brain injuries as mild, moderate, severe or penetrating. The vast majority of injuries are classified as “mild” by Trump, but their treatment will be lifelong as were all of the injuries reported from al-Asad.
Silly fool, GPS is just an acronym.
Few people understand GLONASS or Beidou. You are like picking on the term astronauts over Russian cosmonauts and Chinese taikonaults. And then about xxx Cola.
All smart phone in China come with GPS option only, many Chinese has qn why their gov is not implementing Beidou. The explaination was GPS is just common term, inside all domestic phone is Beidou chip. Just as Russia report it as “US GPS” to differentiate. Its silly to tell non Russian pls turn on your GLONASS, 99% people will get screw.
It’s like Huawei IPhone. It’s so good you should buy it ????
You silly boy should never said Huawei smart phone, but Huawei Zihui Shouji.
That is correct, Iranians also use GLONASS and that is why their precision targeting was so effective.
Didn’t Putin request China to let its GLONASS link to Beidou?
Its reported Iran missiles are Chinese technology, starting from silkworm. If true, then its using Chinese Beidou, not GLONASS. Russia won’t sell anything to Iran that its best ally-Israel objected.
Russia’s Unspoken Relationship With Israel and the Assassination of Maj. Gen. Soleimani https://www.globalresearch.ca/russian-eulogies-soleimani-ariel-sharon-shimon-peres-bush-sr/5699615
Yes, the Russian and Chinese collaboration is very close. I have always believed that China is a better bet for Iran and the Chinese now hate the Jews after he Coronavirus is looking more and more like a bio-warfare project the Jews and Americunts have used. Russia is very heavily penetrated by the Jew scum at high levels and the corrupt oligarchs.
If Israel is good to produce Arabs targeted MERS with FUKUS, they are gd to tweet another Chinese targeted COVID after their successful get away SARS, H5N1, swine flu hit.
80% of Israel jews migrants are Russian. 5 out of 6 oligarchs controlling Russia is jews. With Putin allowing Israel unobstructed & well informed precision strike in Syria against SAA-Iran-Iraq concealed bases, its enough to say who tip off.
Turkey has bought s-400’s, which is why USA pissy about the F35 delivery.
Yes, and the Fiend & Foe System will not take Russians Planes as target, The S400 is a great AA system, just not against Russian Planes. Kill switches like this aren´t unusual and installed in most military equipment.
” (Spoiler: The Patriots aren´t either)”
And that’s why the US is unlikely to sell them to Erdo. Patriots are for expensive decoration and wargames only :)
They are indeed very good in being useless (Attack on ARAMCO, Iranian Missile Strike..)
To be fair, I do not think there are Paytriot batteries in Iraq, and drones like those used at Saudi Aramco are outside of the purview of Paytriot, which is a mid to high altitude system.
What Air Defence to you think is installed then in Iraq?
US doctrine downplays air defense in lieu of air superiority. I reckon that most of not all mid and high altitude air defense is covered by the old Soviet era systems of the Iraqi military. https://www.militarytimes.com/flashpoints/2020/01/30/heres-why-patriot-missile-defense-systems-arent-in-iraq-yet/
There was a report by Israeli, I think that says they were not able to intercept 1960s missiles from the soviet union. And more damage by landing in on civilian areas. And totally understandable, America never developed defense systems seriously. They put more emphasis on aggression systems.
Yes, air defense for ZOG.mil is an afterthought.
US doctrine presumes air superiority.
Erdogan want everthing. Mentally disturbed.
Saudi has proven how Patriot work against Huthus drones & missiles.
Paytriots arent low-altitude defense systems
There are many dead Turkeys coming home to the Anatolian peasant villages. The SAA and its allies have performed superbly despite taking on all of NATO.
Erdogan: We will deploy the S-400 system in southern Turkey. Just joking.
I don’t understand? Are you saying S400 is a bad system?
I’m saying that Turkey can’t use the S-400 against Russia and probably not against SAAs. Thanks to Putin’s wisdom and Erdogan’s stupidity.
The thing is: Nobody truly knows. Turks are not stupid. They wont buy such expensive equipment, without being sure to have full control. For example it is normal, that buying countries get access to source code, or implement their own software on critical systems. And the friend or foe system would have to be replaced anyway, as Turkey is NATO and would need to implement friendly detection of NATO planes. That is way those deals take months to years in pre sales discussions, and equal time for implementing it.. So we can not know, but should not expect that Turkey military experts are stupid..
I can’t see a possibility that the Russians have sold to Turkey an air defense system that can shoot down Russian aircrafts. Recently Turkey has not acted as a NATO member. Thanks to Putin.
I am sure that Turkey’s S-400 can shoot down Russian aircraft.
However, it’s likely that Russia has ECM available that can easily defeat S-400
And how would F-35 save the situation? (Hint: S-400 detects F-35 quite well and Syrian AD is connected to the common network with Russian S-400 thanks to Israel)
Bottom line is the S-400 cannot be used by the Turks against Russia and probably against SAA.
Guess what? Now Erdogan requests Patriot missiles to protect border against “Russian agression”.
Lol.
SAA should lunch counteroffensive and take Saramin and push West along M4 and North cut the Turkey Supply line at Batabu
Roger that my Field-marshal. Shall I prepare your battle horse and your sword for you to lead the counter offense?
Nah. His buttle armchair is already up and running.
Lol. Very droll.
Maybe leave it better for dinner.?
Is Erdogan that stupid to send his army into a heavily contested military zone without any AD or air cover and that too, to support terrorists? Makes no sense!
Maybe deep down he wants them destroyed so they are no longer a problem for him.
The militants that is not his own army.
Said the same thing…Why the Syrian army should go ahead now and capture IDLIB before the Turks get those Air defences up and running. Otherwise the Syrians can start counting Idlib as a New Turk province
The guy is a f….. psychopath
“soldiers were implementing a ceasefire” that’s exactly what they did – implementing a ceasefire! (by leading terrorists attacks on syrian positions)
Are the Turkeys already on a fishing-for-compliments-tour? Obviously a compassionate auditory should think that they are on a philanthropic holiday trip – whereas they are just Erdogans little helper for land- and influence-grabbing desires. Anyway – as you mention – back in 1683 they got their ceasefire implemented but not in the way they had intended. Inshallah :) Things don’t run always as planned…
There will be more and that’s a way down for Erdo.
I don’t know if anyone pays attention to the videos the jihadis in these Turkish outposts put online…They are practically living with the Turks. Always in front firing and when the SAA fires back they run and stay behind Turkish soldiers of armour because they know the Syrians won’t attack. Then when the Turks fire artillery they are filming and shouting their Allahu snackbar the whole time. No wonder the Turks are getting killed and more to come
I wholeheartedly agree with you on this! If I were a Turkish solder I would have surrendered to the SAA as quitting might lead to me being sent to Turkish jail and nobody wants that. Being killed doesn’t make any sense either.
According to the western media, (incessantly reporting on bombed hospitals, clinics, schools and kindergartens) one can only assume prior to the sponsored invasion of Syria by armed Islamists, the Syrian state was extremely well served with public services, (such as hospitals and schools that the jihadists have converted into ammunition dumps, command centers and field hospitals for jihadists) rivaling many western countries in number, scope and quality.
That is a great point. Syria was a full functioning and realitive spot of safety and stability in the region before 2011.
Turkey wants to appear as a victim.
But that’s a Jewish custom :)
Aren’t Turks and Israelies Kazhars?
It is said that they are related and from the West of China.
Turks originate from central and southern Asia. Uighurs of China are Turks that most likely migrated into what is now China, some centuries ago. Ashkenazi are a hybrid European-Semitic population. The Khazar diaspora likely contributed nothing to the Ashkenazi gene pool. Judaism was adopted by the Khazar Khanate largely as a political move; it’s doubtful that many Khazars really converted to Judaism, outside of their ruling class.
Nah, the Khazar hypothesis is bogus. Ashkenazi are a biological isolate most likely descended from male Jewish and female Europid lineages, bottlenecking sometime in the early medieval period, iirc.
In other words, Ashkenazi jews are a hybrid of European and Middle-eastern lineage, that has isolated itself and genetically drifted from the mean.
many more than 2 dead and 5 wounded TURKS today … many more
Erdogan bite the dust bloody double face butcher.
TURKS now attacking the KURDS … can’t beat the SAA … lets go slaughter defenseless people

Know where are their USA friends.
Erdogan send fake coup soldiers on suicide mission inSyria Idlib province.
Stupid Putin,….stop bending over, the more you do it the more they will fuck you up
he’s playing this great … he is giving the rabid dog every opportunity to reverse course and at the same time creating massive friction in the TURK military with the stupidity they are witnessing with their own eyes
no more warnings

The solution is simple
the areas of the 3 separate attacks today … each one was weaker than the previous one
https://twitter.com/200_zoka/status/1230507421380042752/photo/1
RATS left with platoon sized at the end
Why not stop the madness. Leave Syria and let it be whole.
a madman does not recognize that they are mad .. one of his closest officers must come up with the courage to use a pen zip gun on him and put a bullet in his head
Erdogan cannot control his megalomania. And his thuggish ways. And his thievery. And his temper. And his stupidty. And his sense of invencibility. In shorrt, he is like one of those spolied children who thinks he is the center of the universe. Until he finds a tougher kid and the bully ends up with a bloody nose
don’t even twitch ….

more Russian fighters on the way to SYRIA

NOT DESTROYED … just abandoned

The old BRDM probably had a mechanical failure and was left on the side of road
Erdogan doesn’t know s400 operate foolish man.
Turks have not fully been trained on it yet by the Russians … at the moment …. they are large paper weights
RAT groups fighting among themselves … loser has to be on the next suicide mission
