Syrian Civil War (Graphic Photos/Vid Not Allowed)

.
It's largely over apart from Erdogan actively preventing it from ending
and this is why i keep saying it that Turkey will leave Syria....eventually.....only with a list of destroyed equipment.

The Jihadis are struggling in Libya.
TO be honest, i will be surprised if Iran doesnt turn Libya into a "repayment" for Iran's adversaries in the Syrian war - Iran can sell or/and push arms to warring parties in Libya to just keep it going, bog down the resources of NATO imperalists and adversaries.

That gonna become a sectarian war. If Iran supports Syrian government that is because Iran doesn't want Syria to become a zombieland for Takfiri Jihadis which will affect Lebanon, Iraq and resistance axis.

Russian fighter jet shot down a US drone near Khmeimim air base in Syria

According to the Chinese news agency Sohu, a Russian fighter jet shot down an American drone near Khmeimim air base in Syria, EDNews.net reports citing Bulgarian Military News.

The drone is owned by the US Air Force, but was given to Syrian rebels. According to the agency, the drone was supposed to reconnoiter over the region of the Russian military Khmeimim air base and subsequently to be part in a planned air raid on the base.

“The Russian fighter shot down a small American reconnaissance drone provided by the Pentagon to the Nusra armed forces,” Sohu wrote.

According to the publication, this drone was given to Nusra’s armed forces at the beginning of the year, when there were dozens of armed clashes in Syria between the Syrian army and the rebels, as well as between pro-Turkish forces and Russian-Syrian units.

The type of the drone is not known yet, but according to the publication, the Russian military and air forces have considered that it could endanger the functioning of the Khmeimim air base and have taken action to remove it.

No statements have been made by the Russian Ministry of Defense so far.

About Al-Nusra front

Al-Nusra Front or Jabhat al-Nusra, known as Jabhat Fatah al-Sham after July 2016, and also described as al-Qaeda in Syria or al-Qaeda in the Levant, was a Salafist jihadist organization fighting against Syrian government forces in the Syrian Civil War. Its aim was to establish an Islamic state in the country.

Formed in 2012, in November of that year several western media described al-Nusra as “the most aggressive and successful” of the rebel forces.

In March 2015, the group joined with other jihadist groups to form the Army of Conquest. In July 2016, al-Nusra formally re-branded as Jabhat Fatah al-Sham (“Front for the Conquest of the Levant”).

On 28 January 2017, following violent clashes with Ahrar al-Sham and other rebel groups, Jabhat Fatah al-Sham merged with four other groups to become Hayat Tahrir al-Sham. However, Tahrir al-Sham has officially denied being part of al-Qaeda and said in a statement that the group is “an independent entity and not an extension of previous organizations or factions”

As the previous thread on the subject was closed down by the mods/admin I thought this might be a better place to confirm this report:

Has it been confirmed that Khalifa Umar Bin Abdul Aziz's tomb has been desecrated and his body has been exhumed along with his wife's? Or is it fake news?

I am not seeking to turn this into a discussion. Just need confirmation.

It's fake. The news reappear once in a while when it's needed for propaganda purposes. And the region where it has allegedly happened is under the control of Turkey, not Iran.

And the thread has been reopened by the mods.

It was essentially a thread to bait people into spewing anti-Iran things. remember the thread where Pakistanis were asking the "right questions "about Iran recruiting Pakistanis to fight in SYria? yup, that was another bait thread to allow Pakistanis to lash out at Iran, for anything they're mad about essentially.

You don't send in a few of your best tanks into a proxy war.

You send in all of your worst tanks M60s, T-55s, T-62. So that would be 2000-3000 tanks from Egypt, if Egyptians want victory. And you don't spread them out for easy picking by anti-tank attacks. You group them together and create pockets with pincer movements and let the infantry surround the pocket and finish off the enemy infantry. Keep doing this until the only thing left is Tripoli and that is besieged and make a peace treaty offer.

This is basic attacking 101. These are German Wehrmacht tactics.

Egypt has throughout it's Sinai campaign shown horrible tactics and lost dozens of tanks. The Egyptian army is the definition of incompetence. They will bleed in Libya.

Unless they themselves intervene and use these weapons it isnt going to make a difference. What difference would there be in M1 Abrams and T-72 in the hands of LNA if they use it in the exact same manner. Given Egypt's past track records i dont even think that it would make a difference either. First the Pantsirs reputation was ruined now the Abrams follows?
