Rusaia is continuing to prepare for another large-scale missile attack on Ukraine.

A short while ago, two more Tu-95ms aircraft flew from Olenya airbase in Murmansk Oblast to Engels-2 airbase in Saratov Oblast, presumably to be equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles. They will probably return to Olenya airbase within the next 48 hours.

Additionally, two Il-76 military transport aircraft landed at Engels-2 airbase, with the cargo most likely including Kh-101 cruise missiles.

There are quite a lot of reports of uprisings occurring across the Damascus Governorate ahead of the FSA and HTS advance. There isn’t much evidence of this yet, so I’ll wait for some more confirmation before adding it to the map.

The suburbs of Damascus right now… this is insane.

FSA has entered Damascus, linking up with the uprisings in the suburbs. The battle for the city has officially begun.

I’m gonna catch a few hours of sleep and hope that Syria doesn’t collapse in that period of time. I’ll be back online and reporting later.

Homs has fallen, the coast has been isolated. A last stand will be made at Damascus.

Another Tu-95 took off from Engels-2 airbase and is flying north to Olenya airbase, presumably for redeployment purposes.

Around 8 hours ago, another Tu-95 redeployed from Engels-2 airbase to Olenya airbase.

Approximate situation in Syria as of the time of writing.
