One of the most oppressive Regimes on Earth is collapsing.
After 13 years of insane cruelty, mass-displacements, killings and torture.
This is a historic moment - Syria.

- Today one of the most famous Wagner mercenary, nicknamed "Vaha", was killed in Ukraine. He fought in Donbass in 2014-16 (where he executed prisoners of war), but also in Libya & Syria. bit.ly/3xbvzN1
- Syrian Rebels might have scored their biggest hit vs Russian troops since 2016. GRU's Colonel Pechevisty, seen with paratroopers in Latakia on pic 1, was killed in strike against a command post (bit.ly/43aXWJY). Rebels said they struck a HQ 2 days ago in Latakia prov.👇
Replying to @QalaatMRussian Colonel O. Pechevisty was a Special Forces commander & operated in Syria since last December to carry out special tasks. He was killed 2 nights ago in Syria. Highest-ranking Russian Officer slain in the country since Summer 2020. Thks to @guteniev. bit.ly/3NaKMat - People trying to recover (jet) fuel from one of the tanks dropped by an Israeli warplane in the Syrian desert amidst attacks on Iran.
00:00 - Replying to @QalaatMInsane video showing blind bombardment of Ariha (S. Idlib - Syria) by Assad's forces using heavy (unguided) artillery provided by Russia. Remember this when you'll see pro-Assad & Kremlin propagandists claiming they strike "terrorists". This is pure evil.
00:00 - Kafranbel 10 years ago. Syria.
I just posted a map update. It is really very, very conservative. - Syria: lowering water level of Euphrates didn't reveal Hunger Stones like in Europe, but a Roman/Byzantine graveyard dug out in the rock. Site located in W. Raqqa province.
00:00 - Syria: Kafranbel was famous for its popular banners, displayed after every Friday's prayer. This is from 2014👇
00:22There couldn't be a clearer symbol of Iranian occupation in Syria. Kafranbel (S. Idlib) was one of most active towns in anti-Assad protests for years. Then the town was emptied of all its residents by Russian firepower in 2019. - Russia isnt' ashamed to show its war crimes committed in Syria. Video is cut off immedialely after the airstrike, to hide the dramatic aftermath (50 civilians killed & wounded in mobile market). Total Moscow's disregard for civilian lives outside Assad-held areas.

Replying to @QalaatMDefied in his own country, Putin wanted a show of force. It happened in Syria. RuAF choose to bomb a market near Jisr Shoghur (SW. Idlib) were ppl were buying vegetables, 3 days before Eid Adha. 12 civilians slain, 35 injured. Official media will praise him ("terrorists killed"). - Replying to @QalaatMA. Ivanovitch was an experienced Russian paratrooper who fought in Chechnya, Georgia, Syria & took Crimea. He survived destruction of his convoy in Bucha (Feb. 29), went to the South of Ukraine where he died few days ago in (HIMARS) strike on ammo depot. bit.ly/3RGMcsj
- FT: large-scale Hezbollah involvement in Syria "weakened their internal control mechanisms & opened the door for infiltration on big level". It also "created a fountain of data" for Israeli spies. Hezbollah support for Assad backfired, explaining how they were crippled recently.
- Hezbollah-affiliated sources stopped 2 days ago publicly releasing funeral invitations for those killed in Lebanon. Likely bcz those notices gave an unique insight on Hezbollah losses (30+/day) incl. for Radwan members, debunking claim unit isn't involved in clashes in the South.Replying to @QalaatM78 more Hezbollah fatalities are identified thanks to the public funeral invitations released between 8th & 14th October. Fighters & commanders, some part of the elite Radwan unit. ~20% were relatives. 📸 #731 -> 808
- This video is widely used by pro-Kremlin propagandists claiming to show a Russian bomb. Guess what? It's from Syria and not even a Russian bomb. It shows a SVBIED detonated by HTS in March 2017 in Qomhana (Hama).
