Syrian Civil War (Graphic Photos/Vid Not Allowed)

There is the railway bridge destroyed sometime back north of Abuqamal connecting abu hasan and ramadi. There also seems a bridge over euphrates connecting as sukkariyah and baghuz fawqani right next to Abuqamal. If this bridge still stays intact sdf can transport to abuqamal easily so it needs to be taken care of.

Also there should be continious fighter coverage above abuqamal both Syaaf Mig 29s and Ruaf Su 35s screening for infltration by helicopters prohibiting if any by escorting back or intercepting downing it.
 
@undertakerwwefan our brother @500 has gone more quiet on this thread...not surprising since he also knows this war is almost a wrap. And even if you look at his last few posts, they are actually irrelevant things relative to the big picture of the war- "Assad airstrikes that hit civilians", etc. LOL.

Dead kids make u LOL? Typical Assad supporter. Assad lost all the resources. His economy is totally destroyed. And he needs billions merely to prolong his agony. Out of 14 Syrian provinces Assad dully controls only small Alawi Tartus. He controls only destroyed towns and even this only with help of foreign mercenaries.

The northeast part of Latakia province is rebel held. Assad is nobody. Russia and Iran are many times the size of Syria.
 
Syria's army retakes Deir Az Zor from ISIL
17 minutes ago

A Syrian state television and a military source have announced the complete recapture of Deir Az Zor city from ISIL, their last stronghold.

The news came after the army and other allied forces eliminated the last remnants of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant fighters from the eastern city.

"The armed forces, in cooperation with allied forces, liberated the city of Deir Az Zor completely from the clutches of the Daesh terrorist organisation," the military source said, using an Arab acronym for ISIL.

ISIL had for years besieged a government enclave in the city until the army relieved it in early September.

Earlier, army units, in cooperation with supporting forces, regained control over the city's al-Hamidya neighbourhood, the official SANA news agency said late on Thursday.

Backed by Russian air raids, the forces of Syria's President Bashar al-Assad have waged a sustained campaign to retake areas in Deir Az Zor province.

The development is the latest significant defeat for ISIL as they lose almost all urban strongholds.

The Syrian army and Kurdish-led forces backed by the US race to take the rest of the eastern province.

Meanwhile, a US-led international coalition has provided air support to a Kurdish-Arab alliance, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), also fighting ISIL in Deir Az Zor.

“The army announces full control of Deir Ezzor city,” state television said in a breaking news alert, citing sources on the ground.
Syria's army has seized Deir Ezzor from the Islamic State group, state media said Friday, driving the jihadists from the last major city where they were present.

“The army announces full control of Deir Ezzor city,” state television said in a breaking news alert, citing sources on the ground.

State news agency SANA also reported that Deir Ezzor had been “fully liberated.”

State television reported that engineering units from the army were combing captured neighbourhoods to defuse mines and other explosives.

On Thursday, a reporter contributing to AFP saw widespread destruction in the city, with whole buildings hit by air strikes or artillery fire crumpled into themselves and streets strewn with rubble.

Trenches dug by IS fighters to defend their positions were still visible as government minesweepers worked.

Syrian troops and allied fighters backed by Russian air power have been battling inside the eastern city since September, when they broke an IS siege of nearly three years on government-held districts.

In recent days they have advanced, capturing a string of neighbourhoods and encircling remaining IS fighters.

The city is the provincial capital of surrounding Deir Ezzor province, an oil-rich region that sits on the county's eastern border with Iraq.

The province was once largely held by IS, though parts of Deir Ezzor city stayed under government control throughout the jihadist group's reign.

IS is now facing twin assaults in the province, from the army as well as US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, an alliance of Kurdish and Arab fighters.

The jihadist group has lost much of the territory it once held in the province. Its most important remaining position is the town of Albu Kamal on the Iraqi border.

More than 330,000 people have been killed in Syria since the conflict began in March 2011 with anti-government protests.
