Terrorists in Syria use US technology, assistance from Ukraine with drones - Source

Members of the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham terrorist group (formerly known as the Nusra Front) have managed to capture Aleppo thanks to Ukrainian advisers who helped with drones, as well as the use of advanced US technology, including satellite navigation and electronic warfare systems, a source close to the Syrian special services told RIA Novosti.

"The militants of the terrorist group Nusra have no experience in using high technology, and it would not have been possible to master it without advisers from Ukraine, the Islamic Party of Turkestan and Syrian officers (who went over to the terrorists' side)," the source said.

The offensive operations were controlled using high technology provided by the Americans, the source said, adding that the Syrian army's communications were jammed by powerful electronic warfare systems during the offensive.

"The assault groups and drones were equipped with encrypted GPS devices and extensive use of artificial intelligence, so that the use and navigation of attack UAVs and kamikaze drones took place from a long distance," the source said.

Birds of a feather: how are HTS terrorists in Syria linked to the Ukrainian regime?

Hayat Tahir al-Sham (HTS), known until 2016 as the al-Qaeda-linked Jabhat al-Nusra, has managed to seize Aleppo due to the support of Ukrainian advisers, a source close to the Syrian special services told Sputnik.

What's known about HTS cooperation with the Kiev regime?

🌏 In mid-September, a Syrian source revealed to Sputnik that HTS terrorists in Idlib had received components for hundreds of drones disguised as civilian goods from the Ukrainian military.

🌏 The source noted that Ukrainian instructors had arrived in Idlib to train the terrorists to produce, modernize and use the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).

🌏 The Syrian newspaper Al Watan and the Turkish newspaper Aydinlik reported the same month that Kyrylo Budanov, the chief of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (GUR), had been in contact with the head of HTS Abu Mohammad al-Julani, attempting to recruit fighters for joint operations against Russia.

🌏 Abu Mohammad al-Julani fought for al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) – a terror organization ISIS emerged from - and founded Jabhat al-Nusra, the al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria.

🌏 Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova drew attention to Ukraine-HTS cooperation on September 20: the Kiev regime "has long been betting on terrorism, threatening the entire world with unpredictable and extremely dangerous consequences," she said.

🌏 On December 1, the Ukrainian press reported that HTS "had received operational training from special forces troops from the Khimik group of Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate"

🌏 In 2023 the Russian Investigative Committee indicted Budanov of committing over 100 acts of terrorism on the territory of Russia.
