thanks for baking bread based americanon death to america.
Guys, Saida was recently captured. Not long until the SAA has complete control of whatever road it's on, which leads to Daraa. They are tightening the noose.

Yup, which is why this happened: The gangsters in charge of the FSA doesn't want to lose out on the border cross money.

No! Damn rebels! I want them to fight on and slowly lose ground in a war where they are constantly getting pounded with air strikes. I hope the SAA declines their offer.
FSA demanding a return to pre offensive borders and for cessation of hostilities as more towns and villages fall to the advancing SAA. Highly doubtful that the government will agree to any cessation due to the rapid success.
Reports SAA are now entering Smad,Kheraba,Samj and Nu'Aymah under RuAF support and artillery.
More than 18 border checkpoints captured along the Jordanian border. Mobile infantry in trucks and APC's are scouring the desert of FSA after the surrender of Bosra has opened a huge hole in the eastern front. First time in 3 years since SAA have been at that border. Including Russian forces in BTR's that were originally sent to Bosra to act as a peacekeeping force.
Confirmed capture of the village of Tal Saada southeast of the heaviest fighting at Tafas where the deathtoll over the last few days has surpassed 400 combined with unknown civilian casualties as heavy air and artillery strikes from both sides continue for the 4th straight day.
Confirmed death toll of SAA since offensive began as of 3/7/18: 131 killed(most from the ambushed armour convoy at Tafas 3 days ago) 487+ wounded 38 missing At least 40 vehicles destroyed including 16 tanks.
Out of 30,000 Troops on call for duty as part of Operation Basalt.
Confirmed death toll of FSA as of 3/7/18: 291 killed 1800+ wounded 4000 surrendered 1700 defections to the SAA militias. 311 missing under bombardments of artillery and aircraft. Likely dead. At least 120 vehicles destroyed Out of 14,000-18,000 FSA in the southern region.
ISIS is unknown for casualties after the few airstrikes on Tasil but its believed less than 1000 fighters are in their section of Daraa.
Unknown civilian casualties at this time. At least 60,000 have fled to the Jordanian border where a makeshift camp has been set up with another 35,000 at the Golan Heights border with IDF telling them no one is allowed in but they are giving food,water,tents and medicine to those at the border.

>FSA demanding a return to pre offensive borders how could oyu possibly make such a demand when you are getting completely destroyed? FSA has 8.102 casulaties which is a 45% loss of the 18k number. >where did you get these numbers form anywas? what sources? EBIN post dude
i love the abu ghraib pics because it's easy to kill someone and make a hero out of them, but humiliation is eternal and these hajis hate that worse than death hahaa. god bless those patriots who took those photos

Tal-Saada has also been captured. So I guess it's fair to say this area has probablty been taken? What do you think?
>131 SAA killed >291 FSA killed That's actually kind of disappointing, I was expecting a slightly better k/d r... Remember those early Damascus battles where they got close to 10 to 1? Feels like yesterday. Those were the days.
No it actually works to embolden them. They don't die for recognition, and their humility in front of people never mattered in the first place- they blow themselves up and innocent people. There was never any humility because they answered to ideology only.
Yeah, also being on the defense has a big advantage. oh, my poor child. If only you knew how the media over here (and probably all across the West) were reporting the battle for Daraa right now.

>Sanctions against Russia over Ukraine extended for 6 months – EU
The European Union has extended sanctions against Russia over Ukraine for another six months. The EU said in a statement on Thursday that the 28 member states took the decision “unanimously,” AP reports. The move comes less than two weeks ahead of a planned summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Donald Trump. However, the latest extension of sanctions on Thursday had been widely expected. The sanctions, first imposed in 2014, center on the financial, energy and defense sectors.

>Germany, Austria, Italy ready for talks to ‘shut’ southern migrant route – Berlin
Germany, Austria and Italy will hold talks next week on how to “shut” the southern migration route into Europe, Germany’s Interior Minister Horst Seehofer said on Thursday. The statement came after Seehofer’s meeting with Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz. The German minister said the coalition government’s plans for new immigration measures at their shared border would not make Austria responsible for people arriving there who had already sought asylum in another EU country, Reuters reported. According to Kurz, the two sides agreed Germany’s plans at the border would not harm Austria.

>Jordan's mediation brings Syrian rebels back to talks with Russians
AMMAN (Reuters) - Jordanian mediation has brought Syrian rebel negotiators back to the table with Russian officers to discuss a final deal to end fighting and restore Syrian state control of Deraa province, a Syrian opposition spokesman said.
Ibrahim al Jabawi said the two sides were expected to hold talks this evening in the southern town of Busra al Sham. Four rounds of talks have been held there since Saturday, without reaching agreement.
Rebel officials say the main differences include whether the rebels surrender their weapons in one go or in phases, before handing over their areas to state control under Russian military police supervision.
Jordan has played a leading role behind the scenes in persuading Free Syrian Army rebels, whom it and Western powers have long supported, to reach a deal with Russia that could spare southern Syria more bloodshed and destruction. Tens of thousands of Syrians have fled the fighting in the region toward Jordan’s border.
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi held talks on Wednesday in Moscow, where he warned a humanitarian crisis threatened to unfold on the border and said a ceasefire was urgently needed.
On Thursday, Russian planes hit areas close to the Jordanian border. A major battle was raging in an air base on the outskirts of Deraa city, only a few kilometers (miles) from Jordan’s northern city of Ramtha, residents and diplomats said.

>U.S. Navy says will protect commerce in face of Iran oil threat
LONDON (Reuters) - The U.S. Navy stands ready to ensure freedom of navigation and free flow of commerce, a spokesman for the U.S. military’s Central Command said on Thursday, after Iran warned it will block oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran has threatened in recent days to close the strait, a vital route for world oil supplies, if Washington tries to cut Tehran’s exports.
Surely there will be a gas attack soon after all these gains, right?

>Strait of Hormuz: the world's most important oil artery
LONDON (Reuters) - With a third of the world’s sea-borne oil passing through it every day, the Strait of Hormuz is a strategic artery linking Middle East crude producers to key markets in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America and beyond. This week, an Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander threatened that Tehran will block oil shipments through the waterway in response to U.S. calls to ban all Iranian oil exports. The Strait has been at the heart of regional tensions for decades and this is not first time that Tehran has made such threats.
