According to your EdMaps map of Aleppo, it does indeed look as though the Syrian Government have taken Shakyeh Ahmed and linked through to the AIrbase.trying to go back once more to
Oct 24, 2015
and while this situation seems to hold (also in other Damascus suburbs), I've realized I definitely should have added one more direction: against "Tall Sayyad salient"; the map from last week:
the view when I tried to "zoom in" there:
The territory under Government control probably ends north to Morek, and includes "56" road visible in the bottom-left corner, and north to it. About two weeks ago I read the Regular Army in the beginning of its October Offensive had tried to cut out this Salient by attacking from the directions of Morek and Kernaz at the same time, but was repelled after counter-attacks were mounted against the flanks of said attacks.
I wonder what's the situation there now, considering what's the most recent map is showing in that area:
This map also seems to be answering
about the road by a desert south of and the answer would be the Regular Army succeeded in securing this important road (if one believed that map, of course)
So, I'll try to occasionally follow five direction:
I said "occasionally", because I've gotten the book, let me see, "ISIS: Inside The Army Of Terror" by Weiss and Hassan and I consider to read it in coming days.
- Aleppo (including access routes: "M5" and through Khanasir);
- Talbiseh pocket;
- Salma;
- suburbs of Damascus;
- Tall Sayyad salient (above)
Now to Moderators:
- while trying to create this post, I noticed several recent and pathetic posts here apparently referring to Hitlerjugend (they popped up with There are more posts to display. View them? message) ... I'm not going to go back to see them, just please have a look if they're ... necessary
- I've also noticed the Kremlin called recent US and British bomb-in-A321-flight statements to be speculations, and while I'm certainly not a speaking trumpet of the Kremlin
I think it would be better to have a separate Thread, for various types of A321 announcements (now numerous media cry this one hour, something else next hour, to change it for a different story soon etc.)
- I'll understand if you ignore my previous two points LOL
Could be your round!
