    Syria State TV reporter Kinanah Alloush breaks in laughter while covering civilian deaths in regime-held #Aleppo

    Alloush is the same reporter who took the now-infamous smiling selfies with bodies of rebels in background.

    While Russia is murdering hundreds of civilians daily in Syria, dropping cluster bombs, phosphorus & focussed on fighting moderate Rebels now 9 months into intervention & ISIS has shot down Russian helicopter & returned to Palmyra. How has Russia fought ISIS exactly?

    #Aleppo siege will end that.

    While Mallah ground progress was minor, it appears that regime received hard blows in #Aleppo city &have a critical situation on their hands

    Update: Regimes Ba'ath HQ in sa'ad Allah center in Aleppo city was blown up with 60KG of explosives

    For the last 2 weeks, assadist loses in tanks quite high ~15 between BMPs & mostly MBTs, about half lost as rebel war spoils. #Lattakia

    Regime operations fizzle out again. #AhraralSham destroys another assadist MBT via ATGM in Ara - Jabal Akrad #Lattakia

    Islamic State shrank by 20% in Syria & 50% in Iraq. Overall IS lost 40% of its areas: shrank from Britain to Greece

    "The number of members volunteering to blow themselves up is not a sign of a dying group.” -

    Hassan Hassan ‏@hxhassan
    ISIS has a backlog of suicide bombers, but it's now receiving more volunteers in the wake of its territorial losses

    Defeat of ISIS will come when its ranks lose the will & desire to fight -

    Hassan Hassan ‏@hxhassan
    Who want to defeat IS more: those who want to properly uproot it, or those who seek to 'take it out' no matter the mess they leave behind?


    #ISIS is reverting to insurgency tactics it relied on in #Iraq & #Syria before June 2014, @hxhassan says in @nytimes

    SyriaExpress update. High rate of supplies indicates Russia is ready (prepares) for another round.

    This is a spy drone it seems, sniffing on ISIS in Al-Rai.
    But why does it have its transponder turned on?!

    Syrian activist journalist......air strike targeting him barely missed his position........
