Oh wow, a “358” missile in #Iraq….
For those who aren’t aware of the 358:

janes.com/amp/new-irania…
A couple of things to note, cap is still on and it's not exactly damaged so it appears to be a staged setup, probably trying to send a message/warning, we've seen these SAM's successful in use by Houthi's, so we know they work, per say.
Sorry, I'm thinking as I type here, there is a multitude of reasons why the missile could be sitting the way it is, the crux of it all is that there are 358 missiles in Iraq and that's an interesting development.

For the last few hours I’ve been back and forth on these images, they are unconfirmed (I can not stress the fact they are unconfirmed) images of Al-Tanf Garrison, Syria. Reportedly showing the damage from last nights attack. The satellite tower and area matches recent imagery ImageImage
But the building in the background just doesn’t line up so I’m sharing these just in case, but I have my reservation until proven otherwise.
I will say again, unconfirmed, in the hope that 3 times is lucky and people don’t get the wrong message.

A suicide drone attack against the coalition base in Al-Tanf, #Syria has been confirmed.
….Al-Tanf has always had a no fly zone/exclusion zone, so not exactly sure what this is getting at?
A drone reportedly entered #Syria|n airspace from #Iraq. There are multiple reports of a number of drones, and reports are being embellished at this moment in time, once I can confirm details, i’ll update accordingly.

Thread🧵 - East of #Homs, #Syria;

On the 8th October 2021 reports began to circulate of Air Defense active over Homs Governorate, #Syria. Shortly after the initial reports, sources and social media begin to report that the area of T4 Airbase near Tiyas was reportedly struck.
The next day, initial investigation had begun, and initial low resolution imagery courtesy of @sentinel_hub confirmed that the runway at T4 airbase had been struck. This wasn’t exactly new, as highlighted previously, the runway at T4 has been targeted multiple times…
In the past (included are two examples of previous strikes). The odd thing about this one was it was conducted during Shabbat on a Friday evening, this is rare, and if I remember correctly it’s the fast Friday night strike since 2018, which oddly…

Initial reports of #Syria|n Air Defense active east of #Homs, near Palmyra
Missiles reported seen travelling over Al-Tanf.
This is not the first time we have seen the IDF conduct multiple strikes in a short number of days. Looks like we have a SEAD mission first, again. Example for earlier this year.

Multiple reports of militants associated to #IRGC locking down Al-Mayadin, #Syria after a reported airstrike on the outskirts of the town.

Deir Ez-Zor (DeZ) and the surrounding area is always difficult to get details on, more often than not, reports end up false, for example here;

Reports suggest that “farm land” was targeted. In January this year “farm land” in the vicinity of Al-Mayadin was targeted.
