    Syrian rebels,led by the #FSA,took the #Qaramta barrier, one of the most fortified #Assad regime checkpoints in entire #Hama prov.

    They reinforced the barrier for years to stop rebels at this point.
    It didn't help.
    Intense #FSA (arty) firepower broke the defence today.

    It was the 1sr OP with major participation of #AhrarAlSham.
    So "led by" might be an exaggeration.
    Strong participation.

    Now that Qaramitah CP and Al-Judaydah village are captured by rebels, next move probably to Tal Malah and Jubbayn villages north-west Hama

    Syrian rebel double TOW attack on ATGM position and moving pro-#Assad troops west of #Aleppo.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXp97f67uO8#…

    FIRST videoed attempted double TOW tap ....

    FSA T-55 tank with incredible (wooden?!) DIY armor shells pro-#Assad positions in western #Hama province.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmIU...utu.be#…

    The interesting thing is that wood of all things does in fact detonate the incoming round in less AP....and helps dissipate the blast as wood is soft and disperses the blast..old concept but still moderately effective...against RPGs....

    Russian and Americans ran their WW2 tanks around the countryside with logs strapped on them.....

    BUT am betting it is rusted steel plating....

    Nothing specific (yet). Can only confirm a corresponding meeting (in Moscow).

    Airstrikes on #FSA in desert of eastern #Qalamoun (to stop their advance against #IS?)

    From further investigation it is possible to confirm that water level behind the #TabqaDam is dangerously high. #Raqqa
