The UN is now saying that they have no proof the attack was an “air strike”. Only that the convoy was “attacked”. How, or by whom,they don’t know.
To me there are important questions that need answers about this incident:
1.Since that whole area is (we hear) under 24/7 radar monitoring. Shouldn’t the “who” be known?
2. Since parts of the video shows burning trucks (I suppose those were ammo trucks?),and other parts of the video show non-burned trucks destroyed. Were there “two” convoys,not just one? One of military supplies,and one of humanitarian aid?
3.Was the “humanitarian” convoy cleared by the Syrian government to proceed.There are several stories on that.Of course if there were “two” convoys.The ammo convoy would “not” have been cleared. So maybe that accounts for the different stories on that point.
It seems to show secondary explosions after the initial blast too… Loved a comment in that liveleak video page: “AID” = “Arms In Delivery”
With the RU MOD’s drone video of a terrorist truck towing a huge mortar alongside with the “AID” convoy, I think the story will now be officially removed from western media’s headlines and back to the old script now regurgitated by UN “Donkey-Moon” of “torture and barrel-bombs” by Assad. Does he even know what is a barrel bomb as compared to a military grade bomb???
The deaths and injuries of the Syrian soldiers in Deir Ez-zor left a bitter feeling in me and Syrian and Russian armed forces are now, correctly to me, bombing the poop out of those “moderate” terrorists aka “healthy opposition” by the hundreds. I have a feeling the kill count will go into the thousand by the end of the month.
But still, the focus is still the city of Aleppo and with the US’s official lack of commitment to the “ceasefire”, the battle of Aleppo is able to continue and hopefully we will see the end of the terror reign there in the near future. May Providence assist the righteous.
Ban Ki Moon huffed and puffed yesterday about Syria, but did not utter a word of concern about Gaza.
Gaza is blot on the conscience of all humanity!
The crimes that are perpetrated daily against the people of Palestine, especially those imprisoned in Gaza are numerous, disgraceful and dispicable, yet the UN continue to remain silent.
UN officials and representatives nitpick and bitch about everything relating to Syria, yet are content to be spat upon by Israelis where Palestine is concerned.
The last UN Rappoteur for Palestine quit only after a few weeks after he was told repeatedly by Tel-A-Viv to f-ck off!
Where was Ban when UN-run schools were being razed to the ground in Gaza and whole families were slaughtered in their homes?
Do you realize that these sanctimonious assholes only yap about things that are relatively “safe” to yap about, like Sudan, and North Korea and Zimbabwe and Syria?
You will never find them expressing concern about anything that puts them at odds with their Zionist Overlords.
Reminds me of George Clooney who just came out with a “scathing report” detailing “war crimes” and “corruption” in South Sudan.
Georgie Boy made sure to concern himself with something that had zero chance of hurting his career and allows him to run around giving interviews while pretending to be relevant- must be getting advice from Bono……
UB, all the picks I have seen, show shrapnel damage from the likes of mortars or small artillery and burnt trucks. Nothing that shows the results of a 250kg or larger aerial bomb. Paveway that comments over at M of B also noticed this. I think the who and the how will be known. Though not advertised to us.
It sounds as though there was a humanitarian convoy hit. This is the one with the mortar shrapnel.
There may have also been an ammo convoy that was hit by something other than mortar.
The Russians say neither they or the Syrians attacked the convoy. They also noted there are no craters around the destroyed vehicles. Likely the convoy was attacked by small arms fire. This and the timing overwhelmingly point to a coordinated zionazi-al qaida attack intended to sow blame on Syria and Russia, counter the negative publicity their saturday attack on the SAA in support of all qaida generated and in general help out their al qaida bum bandits.
1. Change the topic from being about the US blatantly acting as Al Qaeda’s airforce, with its murderous air raid against the SAA on Saturday.
2. Throw Russia and Syria on the defensive, by forcing them to respond to fake claims from MSM whores about them ‘attacking’ UN aid convoys.
It must be borne in mind that it is not beyond the UN to be a willing participant in these shenanigans…
Remember how the UN allowed US spies to be enbedded with official UN Arms Inspection Teams in Iraq?
Several Iranian Scientists were assassinated, when UN operatives made information about them that they received in confidence from Iran, surreptitiously available to Israel’s Mossad..
I’ve seen reports posted that Russia has said it would protect the Syrians from air attack by outside forces. I believe those to be totally false claims. But they shouldn’t be,that is exactly what needs to be done.Western terror forces attacking the Syrians from the air need to be shot down by Russian anti-aircraft missiles.Only when they are aware that their planes will be shot down will they stop their aggression on Syrian forces.
I’ve also read that “69” groups have “joined” the ceasefire. And that number is unchanged from a week or so ago.So that “should” say anything that needs to be said. You have 69 not to destroy. And all the rest “should” be open to destroy.Nothing more needs to be said about that to me. Just destroy the others.
Putin has forced the US to declare its hand. Deception is the art of war. The art of war is deception. If we could see what Russia is doing, so to, could the US. Putin is totally loyal to his country and under no illusions.
He is the best man so hopefully he wins.
“Our military have already made statements that our aircraft did not operate here. The Syrian aircraft could not have operated [there], because the attack against the convoy was conducted in the night time and the Syrian Air Force does not perform flights in this time, it has no such capabilities. The attack took place after humanitarian cargo had already been offloaded in eastern Aleppo,” Lavrov said as broadcast on the Rossiya-1 television channel.
“What’s more, due to the fact that the convoy’s route was passing through the territory controlled by militants, the Russian Center for Reconciliation of Warring Sides in Syria supported the convoy with UAV monitoring”, the official representative of the ministry, Major-General Igor Konashenkov, stated.
According to him, at around 13:40 on Monday, the entire humanitarian load was safely delivered, after which the Center for Reconciliation stopped monitoring the convoy and its further movement was not tracked by the Russian side.
Konashenkov added that an analysis of the video from the scene of events showed no signs of the column’s shelling, such as craters or typical damage to vehicles. He remarked that all that was demonstrated in the video footage resembles the direct consequence of a cargo fire.
Who started the fire and why “can only be answered as always ‘coincidentally’ by those who turn out in the right time in the right place with video cameras – those representatives of the ‘White Helmets’ organization close to Jebat al-Nusra,” the defense ministry’s official representative concluded.
There are quite some videos on the net of the same guys first acting as head-choppers and then appearing disguised as “White Helmets” celebrating the success of the head-choppers in the zones of influence of Jabhat Al Nusra:
This must be the first and fastest rehabilitation of a bunch of psychos seen in the world´s psychiatric history. Freud must be smiling in his grave
As it is showed in the numerous American films about psychopaths, they usually could be located quite near the place of the murder.
That these guys are presented as “humanitarian workers” is an insult to the noble and good individuals who spend some of their better first young years of career working for NGOs in the most remote and underdeveloped countries in the world, most of the times in a state of war ot post – catastrophes, most of the times with a high level of exigence and at the same time the minimum of support from the high responsibles of these organizations and for wages of misery.
Be damned all who, disguised as foreign agents in the known renamed ones or simply directly as terrorists in these “so called” new NGOs, throw to the waste bin and cover with shit the fenomenal, generous and courageous work of disinterested young people around the world.
Russian warships stationed in Syria’s coastal waters hit Takfiri Command & Control center in the West of Aleppo, killing 30 high-ranking Israeli, US, British, Turkish, Saudi and Qatari Jihadis.
Poroshenko meets with Erdogan in NY
Erdogan expressed support for Ukraine in occupied Crimea return issue
Turkey will continue to support Ukraine in the issue of the resumption of sovereignty and territorial integrity. This was stated by the President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
He also stressed that the resumption of dialogue with Russia will not affect Turkey’s position on non-recognition of the Crimea annexation and the condemnation of violations of the rights of Crimean Tatars.
“It goes without saying that Recep Tayyip Erdogan will not go any farther than protocol statements regarding support for Ukraine. He is perfectly aware what risks he might be taking should he act otherwise: Russian-Turkish relations have just begun to mend,” Klintsevich said (the first deputy chairman of the Federation Council’s defense and security committee).
“But words are certainly not just meaningless sounds,” he said. “We’ve seen another confirmation that our ‘friendship’ with Turkey has certain limits and is rather abstract,” Klintsevich said, adding he was certain that the Russian Foreign Ministry had certainly taken note of Erdogan’s statement to have made the proper conclusions.
“US-led coalition’s ‘Predator’ attack drone was spotted around Urum al-Kabra at the time of attack on the UN convoy, the Russian Defense Ministry stated on Wednesday.
‘Predator’ drone had taken off from Incirlik air base in Turkey and left Urum al-Kabra area half an hour after the incident with UN humanitarian convoy, the ministry stated.
“The Russian Defense Ministry says that a US coalition drone was in the vicinity of a humanitarian convoy when it was attacked outside Aleppo. According to the Russian military, the unmanned aircraft was a Predator drone.
“On the evening of September 19, in that specific region, a drone belonging to the international condition, which had taken off from the Incirlik air base in Turkey, was flying at a height of 3,600 meters and traveling at around 200 kilometers per hour,” said Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov.
We have just seen the possible beginnings of something very nasty.
I wondered what President Putin’s response would be to the American air force attacking regular Syrian Army personnel in Syria. 82 Syrian soldiers were killed and 120 injured when US planes bombed their military base mistaking them for ISIS. Today the Russian Navy destroyed a ship off of the coast of Syria.
A Russian military vessel in the coastal waters off of Syria, targeted and destroyed a “foreign operations center” killing several American, Israeli, and Turkish Military officers. “Russian warships fired caliber rockets onto the command posts of the terrorists in western Aleppo, where Turkish, Saudi, Israeli, UK, and US officers are deployed to aid their operations,” Sputnik News Agency reported on Tuesday.
Been reading in other places online that US Special Forces are embedded with terrorist groups in Syria. This is beyond horrible!
The Russian warships stationed in Syria’s coastal waters targeted and destroyed a foreign military operations room, killing over two dozen Israeli and western intelligence officers.
“The Russian warships fired three Caliber missiles at the foreign officers’ coordination operations room in Dar Ezza region in the Western part of Aleppo near Sam’an mountain, killing 30 Israeli and western officers,” the Arabic-language service of Russia’s Sputnik news agency quoted battlefield source in Aleppo as saying on Wednesday.
The operations room was located in the Western part of Aleppo province in the middle of sky-high Sam’an mountain and old caves. The region is deep into a chain of mountains.
Several US, Turkish, Saudi, Qatari and British officers were also killed along with the Israeli officers. The foreign officers who were killed in the Aleppo operations room were directing the terrorists’ attacks in Aleppo and Idlib.
The UN is now saying that they have no proof the attack was an “air strike”. Only that the convoy was “attacked”. How, or by whom,they don’t know.
To me there are important questions that need answers about this incident:
