I’ll do a full report on the air strikes in the coming day(s) when satellite imagery is available. But from what I can tell, it was an extensive operation against #IRGC assets in #Syria
As it stands from my initial thoughts and theories (this will evolve over time) this is my AOI's with some more pinpointed than others.
As for satellite imagery, today is looking unlikely do to thick cloud coverage, but maybe @ImageSatIntl could capture something through a cloud break :D.
due to*
Images via @AlMayadeenNews from some of the damage caused by the reported #IDF airstrikes in Deir Ez Zor and Albukamal last night.
Additional imagery via @Sada_AlSharqieh appears to show the same area that was targeted. "Branch 243" is being reported as the area.
Map updated to confirm location on the #Iraq/#Syria border, pin updated to blue, rest remain yellow and probably will unless more imagery comes out/sat imagery is available.
bleugh, just realised I broken the thread here. see more here.
time and time again, AFP has quoted SOHR for these figures, in airstrikes which never existed, last nights one did but the figures are no-where near confirmable. From my understanding, at the moment only 1 SAA soldier has been confirmed as killed.
Images of two #PMU members injured in the reported #IDF strikes on the #Syria/#Iraq border.
Fatemiyoun publically announces that any reports of deaths amongst their militants from last night air strikes are false.
It is worth noting that Fatemiyoun have been open about their militant deaths in the past due to reported IDF airstrikes, so for the time being, unless something additional reports come in, I do tend to believe this.
Of course, this does not confirm there was none wounded, or if someone could latterly die due to sustained injuries.
Basic simple info graph of the locations confirmed to be targeted in the reported airstrikes so far. Blue pins are confirmed. Yellow is still of interest will need to wait for sat imagery. Red is still AOI's, just because of reports. There of course, may be more I've not marked.
Video courtesy of @DeirEzzor24 reportedly showing the aftermath of the air strikes at the #IRGC affiliated Fatemiyoun Brigades Warehouses near Ayyash in the early hours of this morning. Secondaries can be seen firing into the air confirming rockets/missiles are present.
Clouds were/are clearing this morning so we might get a peek through them today.
#IRGC Quds-Forces deny any reports of casualties during the reported airstrikes. No comments on injuries.
Update: 3 locations confirmed around Deir Ez Zor.
Airstrike damage from Fatemiyoun Brigades position near Ayyash, damage visible on @sentinel_hub imagery with what appears to be earth scorcing from secondaries as per video last night.
Warehouse damage in Deir Ez Zor .
and the military intelligence HQ.
Update;
Blue - Confirmed (geolocation and/or satellite).
Yellow - Still AOI, but it was still too cloudy (in some cases changes were noted but lighting made it too difficult to tell)
Red - Was reported, but can’t see any evidence of a strike. Could change of course.
There of course is possibly more i’ve missed. Once the clouds clear and I get a few days of clear imagery combing the area will be easier.
According to reports #Iran's #IRGC have conducted an unannounced exercise including drones and ballistic missiles, surface to surface. The BM tests included Zolfaghar and Dezful, potentially more.
The "First Phase" of the 15th Prophet exercise was completed successfully.
I assume this means there is more to come...
New generations of missiles were used, a new Zolfaghar, Dezful, and Zelzal. They are reportedly now equipable with detachable warheads according to state media.
In response to a sniper attack (4 shots) against an #IDF bulldozer the #IDF have struck a #Hamas observation post with tank fire near Khan Younis, #Gaza. The activates of the D9 are in the tweet included.
Imagery courtesy of @DeirEzzor24 of the warehouses struck in last nights reported airstrike near Ayyash. The warehouses reportedly belonged to #IRGC affiliated Fatemiyoun Brigades.
To address these tweet, this isn’t intended to mock @Intel_Sky in the slightest, actually I respect the work they do when monitoring aircraft movement around the region. But we all had an inclination something was “up” with the intense movement over the last several days.
Often these prediction have been made, and have been wrong and tweets have been deleted by not just them but other accounts too. The issue with public predictions as accounts grow is their speculation is quickly turned to fact, by no fault of their own when they are wrong
Looks like an F-16i Sufa captured over #Lebanon today. Looks like two drop tanks and Derby Air to Air Missiles on the wings. Assuming she was also running a Rafael Litening II as well.
The reason for assuming the Rafael Litening II is due to there also being risk from Lebanon, of course, as we know several threats have been made from #Hezbollah. But, maybe it's not on there and it's purely what looks like the Derby Air-to-air missiles.
