Wow that fight, they were less then 200 yards away, someone needs to show them how to aim and to adjust their sights for range..
 
So the combined Lebanese/Hezbollah offensive around the border region between Lebanon and Syria resulted in a deal to bus out some 300 IS fighters to the border region of Syria and Iraq that Hezbollah touted as the "second liberation"

Iraq and kurds unsuprisingly furious about dumping some 300 daeshbags at their doorstop so they have protested about the deal and now:

If i where the Lebanese/Hezbollah i would have let them leave as well while informing the US which road they would take.
 
Update on the convoy daeshbag convoy: convoy still stuck somewhere in the desert in eastern Syria while coalition (read = US) airstrikes target IS elements trying to reach the convoy. Hezbollah and Syria furious.

Quite the contrary, regime has done numerous deals relocating both jihadis and FSA to other areas (mostly to Idlib) and this deal collapsing would in all likelihood affect future deals.
 
Its amazing how people no longer care about Syria once Trump stops talking about it.

pretty sure people dont give a shit about any of our foreign conflicts since Vietnam. We have been fucking up that region for 5 decades, and have caused the deaths of millions of civilians during that time.

It only matters in the superficial world of identity politics, to post memes and messages on facebook, to circ jerk each other off.

The Regime/goverment held up its part of the deal its the US that blocking the ISIS jihadis from reaching ISIS territory.

This is a win/win for the Syrian goverment/hezbollah they can legitimatelly claim to have held up their end of the deal and if the ISIS jihadi's get bombed/killed by the US trying to reach ISIS territory well sucks to be them.

It was a deal struck between Hesbollah/Lebanon/Syria and the ISIS militants including their families holed up in the eastern Lebanon mountains. They just wanted to remove the conflict from Lebanon. The soldiers who are going to be fighting them are on the goverment side anyway. They were being dropped off in Deir Ezzor.

It's not an ISIS convoy, I'm not even sure if they were allowed to keep small arms this time. Just bussed by the goverment across the country like the AQ jihadists to Idlib. The picture of the terrified busdriver among the militants is telling, sucks to be them right now cause the US might bring about their deaths.

But no, like always, the US has to interfere in the internal dealings of other nations. They should have no say in this deal, it was between these ISIS affiliates and the goverments of Lebanon and Syria.
 
By using guided munitions regime ground forces are actually getting some support from aviation in their push towards the east.

 
The Siege of Deir Ezzor has been broken after 4 years.

It's because there's no drama anymore since ISIS is pretty much done and Assad is safe. This thread had a ton of very active variations before Trump ran for President.
 
Thought it would be ~2 weeks to break the siege.
 


The seige has not been lifted, but that hasn't stopped the party in the streets of Deir Ezzor from erupting.

Apparently an airborne unit infiltrated behind ISIS lines of defense and took out the Daeshbags who had surrounded Brigade 137's HQ in Deir Ezzor. The Syrian Arab Army units (who have been under siege for 3 years) that are still in Deir Ezzor then recaptured all the positions that they had lost previously to ISIS around the HQ. This led to the premature reports of the siege being broken. It is not. However it will be broken in due time.

No word yet as to the nationality of the airborne unit who took out ISIS at Brigade 137, but the scuttlebutt is that the VDV may have finally made an appearance in this conflict.
