  1. Simply crazy again. At the end it's view on Marib city. The forces of Hadi seem to be collapsing lately.
  2. Seems that some Czech-built (Tatra Defence) Pandurs II are going to Indonesia.
  3. Anna news in Saraqib city - confirmation that the city was indeed taken by SAA.
  4. IMHO it's mainly the Iranian-sponsored militias on the South Aleppo front (also today in Qalaajiyah TIP captured a Safir jeep with a recoilless rifle, typical vehiclew of Iranian-sponsored militias). Those were very unreliable already in 2016 battles. The few Hebollah units won't change too much. On the rebel side it looks like the main fighting force on South Aleppo front is TIP, not HTS. TIP is very serious thread to anyone. They definitely know how to fight. Meanwhile SAA took another three Turkish bases into the collection (Tell Touqan and two in Saraib outskirts) and the jihadists withdrew from Saraqib due to it being encircled. SAA probably needs only several hours to clean it from potential suicide bombers and traps. From @civilwarmap
  5. I don't understand Turkish but it looks like another wounded soldier died. https://mobile.twitter.com/tcsavunma/status/1224572272574377984 Who was this person announced dead by Turkish MoD just two hours a go? There is no military rank in the announcement. https://mobile.twitter.com/tcsavunma/status/1224647463761534976
  6. In the same time Tiger forces still use ancient M1938 howitzers in the last Anna video.
  7. New Anna video. Highly recommended. Meanwhile SAA captured Tarnaba (with TSK post) and Nayrab which means they managed to cross the M4 highway west of Saraqib. SAA is now only about 8 km from the Idlib city itself. Also very close to Sarmin and Ariha. Map from Suriyak.
  8. Six Turkish soldiers were confirmed to be killed and seven others wounded by SAA in the village Tarnaba. This village is an active frontline on the western outskirts of Saraqib. Some say it was an artillery strike, some others claim it was a commando unit engaged in the fighting. While this incident has high potential for future escalation it also opens the question whether some of the Turkish ground units are already actively participating in the fighting.
  9. That T-90A was captured in Zaytan along with one BMP-1. Previously there were some photos which looked like at least one T-90A may have been operated by one of the Iraqi Shiite militias present in the south Aleppo (already since 2016 battles in that area). It could be their tank. Moreover it looks like they didn't even use the tank in repelling the attack and simply ran away leaving it behind.
  10. New advance on Saraqib front by Suriyak (he was correct last time by the way when he didn't report the advance which never happend but which was reported by many others).
  11. Somewhere in Syria. Russain crew, Msta-B and Krasnopol guided round.
  12. Dear God! The scale of Hadi/Saudi defeat in this video is surreal. Only the number of destroyed/captured vehicles is simply insane. I have noticed some stuff our origin among them liek Tatra 810 (with Saudi national guard symbol) or UK-59. In the lostarmour.info website there are lost 49 AFVs counted from the places in the video (including those 19 added already last week and metioned before).
  13. Suriyakmaps shows SAA not so close to Saraqib. His map is just few mintes old. He is usually very accurate.
  14. A fuckton of Turkish AFVs alegedly on the way to Libya. Another Turkish express
  15. Yes, but on Aleppo front, not on Maarat al Numan front. By the way here You can see a soldier looking like Hezbollah one on Khan Touman front (first photo with RPG round in the backpack).
  16. Hezbollah and Fatemiyoun units have been present in southern Aleppo for years. I don't think they fight around Maraat al Numan.
  17. Maarat al Numan city was taken with little fight. SAA took also several other towns and villages around. Recent map from suriyakmaps. It's notable that the second largest city of the Idlib province fell in just several hours. The only thing which can stop the SAA from further advances is political pressure from the outer powers. Fierce fighting reported also from Aleppo front. SAA is said to be storming Khan Touman and Rashedeen 5.
  18. I don't know where to put this. The yearly parlamentary report about the state of Bundeswehr brings a lot of expected but still dreadful numbers. Click on the tweet to get more info. Original document here: https://www.bundestag.de/resource/blob/679322/afbe4b03e05f1b7b88aa2d657f5d7088/jahresbericht_2019-data.pdf
  19. Algerian Su-30MKA crashed today killing both pilots. The reason is not clear at the moment. Iranian Shahed-129 crash-landed at the Iraqi border. Maybe repairable.
  20. At least 19 armoured vehicles lost by the coalition on 25th January near Nimh. Confirmed by photo records in here: https://lostarmour.info/yemen/ Including two vintage ATS-59 artillery tractors.
  21. I have recently looked into the lostarmour.info website and found that there is a fuckton of new records particularly from Chechnya, Georgia or Angola. There are 24 listed T-80 tanks lost in Chechnya with 21 of them in the week between 26th December 1994 and 1st January 1995. After that 93 T-72 variants (73 Russian, 20 Chechen), out of them only 9 in the second war, and 12 T-62 (8 Russian and 4 Chechen). For sure not all of that was irrecoverable.
  22. One of the recently delivered Croatian OH-58D Kiowa crashed into the sea today. Body of one pilot was already found. The other pilot is missing at the moment. https://www.total-croatia-news.com/news/41096-zlarin
  23. USAF radio relay plane E-11A crashed in Afghanistan in the area controled by Taliban. Most likely not shot down (Taliban has nothing to use against high flying planes). The number of fatalities is unclear. There are reports about two bodies recovered by Taliban. On the video it looks like the emergency exit is opened. Maybe some other crew mebers managed to escape.
