Russia ensuring Syrian presence for 50 yrs!
With this agreement when passed ,a mere formality,Russia has ensured a strat. foothold in the Meditt. for approx 50 yrs and also ensuring a mil guarantee that the Syrian regime in charge will get its support.This will please Assad immensely,as he will also get an annual rental income for the base.
Russia has just been exercising with the Egyptians too.The sale of the two Mistrals to Egypt,plus 40-50 KA-52 maritime helos,MIG-29/35 deals,shows that Russia is back with a bang in the region.

It is just amazing what model racing and play sets can be used to develop. Just 2 years ago Iran did not have armed drones. But we seem Hezbollah armed drones now able to carry 50kg bombs. Also cruise missiles. India still doesn't have any drones. Just amazing how advanced they have become compared to their neighbors even Turkey.

The Rustom project director spent most of his money, making tea and buying Innovas to ferry himself and staff to and from home. Nothing was achieved on the ground.

The story of failure Rustom-2 is extraordinarily. An airframe which is 100% overweight and cannot even take off? One has to be really good to muck it up so well. I think that we have been working on Long Range UAV now for 30 years, with nothing to show for it.

^^ is there any thread where the rustom dirty laundry has been exposed?

every 8bit operator out there is moving around with domestic MALE uavs now, if not HALE...while india is not x86_64 atleast we were expected to turn in a x86_32 level of show !

Gargantuan advances by #Iraq's forces south of #Mosul overlooked by western media who opted to shadow the peshmerga advance. Expected.

BREAKING: Reports that Da'ish have detonated the Ninawa provincial council building in central #Mosul.

Haidar Sumeri ‏@IraqiSecurity 1h1 hour ago
Major hospitals in #Mosul are reportedly overflowing with wounded Da'ish terrorists coming from the frontline with #Iraq's forces.

Iran Defence Industry is at a high level of competencies that goes with R&D , There are certain areas where Iran excels or close the advanced nation these are Ballistic Missile ( SRBM, MRBM and IRBM class ) they are actually built solid and liquid fuel missile and MaRV of Agni class , thats impressive.

UAV is another other area, some of them is also due to fact that they got hold of US and Isral UAV that fell inside their territory. Missile System and SAM is another area.

They lack building a decent Frigate/Destroyer class ship and even submarines and good 4th gen aircraft but they do build 3rd Gen Stuff.

All in All , Iran Defence Industry in 40 years of sanctions have worked good for Iran and they managed to do very well in many fields

9th armour div tanks are 10km south of mosul

OT, sorry, but one thing they did that I don't see in desh is that they effectively parcelled out all the basic and applied problems that had to be solved, to universities. Their applicants to uber-yak grazing meadows, show intense work on applied stuff, and of course basic advances come out of those. Compare to Taaap Indian etc who still do Flow Over Cylinders because their aim is to Publish in the Journal of Flow Over Cylinders, there is NOOOOOOO sense that (engg) research is done to actually solve problems towards building new gizmos. Kudos to the Eyeranians. Now they actually know what happens when rocket engines and jet engines are made and tried out.

Iran has long been a formidable power in the ipo and imo contests. Such uber talents are somehow nurtured there despite not being integrated into world knalej ecosystems

Reports that ISF has secured all the well sites at Qayarah & Najmah oil fields. Hopefully now some progress can be made tackling oil fires.

48 hrs of broad advance and only 66 daesh dead...these must be the lowliest cannon fodder left behind as a tripwire ... rest would have moved back into the city after seeing the strong push.

Yeah. Iran has drones and missiles and gunboats and what not. Their scientists are also great compared to poor desis.
Didnt they have a stealth fighter ages ago too.

Nice speech by Erdogan.

Evoking Ottoman past, Erdogan vows to tackle Turkey's enemies abroad

Erdogan said he discussed with Putin by phone an agreement on Tuesday night on removing from Aleppo the group formally known as the Nusra Front, and now called Jabhat Fatah al Sham.

Wow

Erdogan has made repeated references in his speeches this week to the term "Misak-i Milli" or National Pact, referring to decisions made by the Ottoman parliament in 1920 setting out the borders of the Ottoman Empire.

"We are not obliged to abide by the role anyone has set for us in that sense. We have started carrying out our own plan."

Hope they are giving them free AK-47s to REALLY integrate into the ground.

Latest intel reports indicate there are around 4,000 Da'ish terrorists fortifying themselves inside #Mosul. Big task for #Iraq's forces

This is the left hook to tal afar...they have bypassed mosul via western desert and moving north

Big #MosulOp news:

#Iraq's Hashd (PMUs) forces are building up to launch a massive op in western Ninawa province.

Turkey perhaps with russian nods have told jihadis the euphrates shield buffer zone needs are met and no help will be extended for al bab .. they are on own if they want to crack it.

http://aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/turkey- ... als/667068

With saa busy cleaning aleppo this is a chance for ypg to creep fwd below buffer zone from both sides and link up at al bab if there is tacit agreement with saa who is also sitting 10k off at kuweires but no resources to push

From assadist pov the ypg is buffer zone vs turks and fsa
From ergogan pov the euphrates shield is buffer zone vs ypg nd pkk

So all have a use for all, except none have a use for daesh barring khans secretive plans for eastern syria maybe.

Pic was seen of zahreddine on night tour of lines with a single tube nvg...keeping a hawks eye on things

Turkish pov on idlib emirate is now only unstable factor from assadist pov. Putin must be trying hard to wean him and make him disown that project....its the next western cause after aleppo.

In eastern syria rus is rebuilding infra at t4 tiyas to support the war next year to raqqa...

SDF continues to creep toward al bab

Al masdar:

Over 20 Turkish airstrikes with artillery fire have targeted Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) positions around Janderes and Afrin.

This follows on from Turkish penetration into Idlib province where it razed farms and olives groves.

This was reportedly to prepare for a ground assault on Afrin canton.

Turkey have made no formal announcement that its Euphrates Shirld operation will include Afrin canton.

The SDF are primarily made up of the Kurdish YPG in which Ankara recognizes as a terrorist group.

----------------

^^^^^^ afrin is bordered by turkiye, idlib emirate and north aleppo nubl and zahraa front. if turkiye launches euphrates shield there, I guess hordes of weapons will be passed on by SAA from north aleppo to make life hell for whoever the turks send in.

in this delicate chess game, afrin cantons hope of survival is to make nice with assad & russia as he controls their supply line at the back.

some sort of win-win agreement for post-war era would be needed about the YPG rojava areas maybe some federated scheme short of a independent country. amrika cannot help them in afrin unlike in the eastern syria.

Erdogan has calculated early and quite correctly that the Shia Sunni war will cause remapping of west asia. Since he is being wooed by both the US and Putin, he can get whatever he wants, both in Syria as well as Iraq.
It iss either the Shias or the Kurds who can/will stand in his way. Neither of them have too many allies.

Sultan Erdogan is tearing up the Lausanne treaty. In his speeches and in action. With help from Moscow and Washington.

"For Turkey, Operation Euphrates Shield was a major success," said Gurcan.
"Ankara gained a lot of leverage in the Middle East against ISIL, Damascus and even US thanks to this operation.
"This operation brought Turkey back in to the game, and it wants to repeat this success story in northern Iraq."

Thank you Vladimir Putin, "the unerring chess player".

Destruction of a large convoy of Daesh at the border in Raqqa includes terrorists from Arabs and foreigners who were trying to escape.

maybe SAA can use these pics to track them down.

btw President Assad's wife was interviewed yesterday. The journalist asked her if she intended to stay married to Bashr Assad, even if he were charged with war crimes. It appears NATO/EU is preparing charges to bring against President Assad for "war crimes" in Syria. She of course replied she saw no reason to separate. She implied also, that any charges they would bring were false.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahMxGAPQHiQ

It is a hell of a good interview, she was outstanding, she controlled the interview and sent the message she wanted, and did a great job. This interview should go viral, it is probably one of the best weapons Syria has at hands, the plain truth.
Of course shes an investment banker and she is behind the micro financing that was meant to deal with some of the problems of the economy. I dont think she or 'us' had any clue these anglo zionists were such arsehole backstabbers without honor, ethics or dignity. Too bad she did not get to complete her degree at harvard before she got married.

The reporter seemed surprised she drove around Damascus herself and her children went to a normal school and walked there. I am sure security sweeps the area to keep it safe but this is nothing like the thousands that are present around hillary or merkel. Maybe that's why the people have not all ran away.

Syria is indeed fortunate, in its time of trial, to be led by such a couple. First Lady Asma and President Bashar of Syria, their equal has not been seen on the world stage since maybe
Eleanor & Franklin Roosevelt and their 'new deal'. What Asma says - about social justice, empowering people and increasing equality of income - is very similar to Eleanor's views and Franklin's New Deal. True, the young Syrian couple face a fiercer war and far greater peril than the US couple had to face; but on the other hand they found the same strong ally, Russia, and other faithful allies.

meanwhile economic warfare on the enemies of peace and humanity continue apace.

Saudis, China Dump Treasuries; Foreign Central Banks Liquidate A Record $346 Billion In US T bonds",

the trend seems clear, independently if a country A or B is dumping it for a specific reason, the trend is very very dangerous and may trigger a herd movement. Intersting times ahead, it seems all of events are speeding up lately.
