Evidence of western weapons being smuggled from #Ukraine into #Syria surfaced online.
The US-made #Javelin ATGMs used by the Ukrainian army against Russian tanks have already reached #Idlib and are sold for $15,000 apiece, according to the Telegram ad.
A Syrian militant calls his friend and says he's safely returned from #Ukraine after buying Western weapons from Ukrainian military. He shows the first batch of the purchased materiel: several ATGMS, including a US-made #Javelin are visible.
The man also says they've traveled back from Ukraine by bus, using Turkish refugees as a cover. In the end he promises to buy "everything necessary" from the Ukrainians the next time he goes there
The video was published on Telegram by a weapon dealer in #Idlib to proof that weapons are actually in Syria. The price of a Javelin on the Idlib black market is only $15,000.
Sorry for the potato quality, if you need the link to the video, send us a DM.

Where does #SDF keep captured #ISIS terrorists and their families?

This thread will explore SDF detention facilities in northern Syria that have been running well beyond their capacity after an influx of surrendered #ISIS fighters.
The main six prisons are located in #Hasaka province and contain around 2700 people, the major part being male #ISIS terrorists. Fighters and their families enjoy some minor perks compared to other inmates such as members of SDF detained for dereliction of duty, corruption, etc.
There's more to these perks, it will be covered later in the thread.

#US Senator Dick Black speaking to reporters at a #SAA position in #Aleppo: "Beyond this dividing line is Al Qaeda. They keep changing names, but it is Al Qaeda, the same group that did 9/11." He also proceeds to praise the Syrian soldier who is observing the enemy.
Senator Black on #HTS terrorists: "This is their final stand here in Idlib province. This is a very good time for us, for anyone who cares about terrorism. We have been fighting the War on Terror for 17 years with nothing to show, but the Syrian army has them cornered."
"The Syrian army cares very much about casualties, considering that what we have here is urban combat, a very brutal type of combat."

Senator Richard Black, ladies and gentlemen.
