  1. There is a beautiful irony here as russia helped stoke the war in the middle east and because of that hamas can’t do anything in syria and russia are far too busy in Ukraine.

  2. # Putin has fired the Russian commander in Syria General Sergey Kisel and replaced him with General Aleksandr Chaiko.

    *Amid mounting losses and escalating panic among russian forces in Syria, the Kremlin has dismissed General Sergey Kisel, commander of its military contingent in the country.*

    *To stabilize its position and bolster support for Bashar al-Assad’s regime, Moscow has appointed General Aleksandr Chaiko as new commander. Aleksandr Chaiko, who previously led russian forces in Syria from 2017 to 2019, brings experience in the region. Alongside him, Admiral Aleksandr Moiseyev, commander of the russian Navy, has been observed at the naval base in Tartus, signaling a broader leadership reshuffle.*

  4. It’s convenient for Ukraine as it’s a PR hit for Russia, but rather sad for the people of Syria to have another round of civil war.

  5. And now that little fat guy can see how much the help Russia offers to its “allies”

  6. With Russia losing so much men in Ukraine to the point of having to use North Korean troops it’s obvious that they are going to lose other fronts. Defending Assad won’t be important anymore for Putin seeing that Assad is cowering down in Four Seasons in Russia instead of defending his country.

    One by one we have to dismantle Russian proxies all around the world.

  8. Israel just helped by bombing Assad aligned Hazbola camps in Syria!

  9. That’s not true. I read articles about Russia bombing Aleppo yesterday.
