[THREAD] On the latest video from ISIS #Barakah (SDF Areas), which is essentially a sum up of their operations over the past year+, with much of the footage being quite older.

(See image below, from December 2018- AKS-74U driveby of an SDF figure).

Insurgents in the area have the standard repertoire of bombings, assasinations, etc. However, this video shows more Iraq-style killings of figures than previously documented. Suppressed Glock 19, Walther PPK/S and Makarov are used in executions.

Essentially TTPs are very ISI

Broadly, weapons seen are identical to those captured from IS Cells by the coalition/SDF- read my Summer 2019 overview of those to get a really good idea of what the IS cells are armed with: calibreobscura.com/covert-operati…

It is interesting to see the Sa vz. 23/25 suppressed though.
