Pickup Truck Struck by TOW Missile...

. . . . .
Where was this?
In the white pickup trucks are members of the Syrian Arab Army. The video was recorded in April of 2017 in Majdah, North Hama, Syria. Regime forces had been frequenting this route for some time, and enemy improvised explosive devices combined with the naturally decayed roads had forced them to move slowly in a particular long stretch of their planned route. Instead of using alternate routes from time to time however, they continued to use this one stretch to conduct administrative movements, which in turn opened them up for a direct attack from an enemy anti-tank guided missile team.

The anti-tank guided missile team, who recorded this video, is from Jaish al-Izza, a vetted group of moderate extremists who were supporting the Free Syrian Army. Using TOW missiles that they were supplied by the American Central Intelligence Agency, and basic insurgent tactics, they were able to determine the pre-planned routes of Regime forces through extended surveillance. Knowing that this particular stretch of road forced Regime forces to move slowly, they were able to set up their firing position hours in advance of the convoy’s movement, and then target the truck that gave them the largest casualty count for the singular missile that they would be able to fire during their attack.
