Good afternoon.

Syria is now effectively partitioned with the new Kurdish country of Rojava and other Kurd controlled lands essentially all of Syria east of the Euphrates

Hey Israel!

Interested in some real estate?

That’s not the case here. These tanks, howitzers and MRLSs were flown to Syria by Russian military planes. They brought all this gear from Russia. Despite mercenary companies being against Russian law Wagner can use Russian military polygons for their training. They are not-army only for weak deniability reasons.

3 years ago, Nemtsov, opposition politician was killed, imho, some were very uncharitable and that works both ways, I know, from what people say. But overall, I think most feel sorry for the mercenaries killed in Syria, I read one story where 10 of these guys came from some little Russian town, where employment is hard to find and this particular individual was involved in house painting and hanging wallpaper for work he could find.
