Islamic State faces multiple adversaries in Al Bab, Syria
By Thomas Joscelyn | January 30, 2017 | [email protected] | @thomasjoscelyn
In mid-November of last year, the government of Turkey began an assault on the Islamic State stronghold of Al Bab, Syria. The effort, which was led by fighters from Turkey’s Operation Euphrates Shield, eventually stalled. The jihadis have held onto Al Bab, which is located in the northern part of the Aleppo province, for more than two months since.
Al Bab has become the latest flashpoint in the Syrian war — a complex, multi-sided conflict — with various actors converging in the area. Both the US and Russia have bombed Islamic State targets from the air, while Turkey and Bashar al Assad’s regime have closed in on the ground.

The US initially hesitated to provide direct aerial support for Turkey’s military operations in and around Al Bab. That changed after the Turks turned to Russia for additional air support. The New York Times described their cooperation as “an important evolution in a budding Russian-Turkish partnership.”

The US-led coalition “continues to provide intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance to support its Turkish partners in the fight against ISIL [Islamic State] around al Bab in northwestern Syria,” Navy Capt. Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman, told the press on Jan. 26.

“Additionally, the coalition continues to conduct deliberate and dynamic strikes against [Islamic State] targets of the vicinity of Al Bab,” Davis added. Since the beginning of 2017, coalition warplanes “have conducted about 20 strikes in the vicinity of” Al Bab, “destroying ISIL vehicles, fighting positions, indirect-fire systems, command-and-control nodes and vehicle bombs,” the Defense Department’s news release reads. According to data released by Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR), “two strikes engaged four [Islamic State] tactical units and destroyed a vehicle” near Al Bab on Jan. 30.

The airstrikes in Al Bab are part of a new American effort to give Turkish-backed fighters air support during the offensive.

Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook was asked about American air operations in Al Bab on Jan. 3. He denied that the Americans were bombing Islamic State targets near the town.

During a press briefing, Cook said that coalition aircraft had responded to a call for assistance from Turkish-forces that had come under fire. But the Americans didn’t carry out “a strike specifically.” Instead, according to Cook, coalition aircraft provided “a visible show of force.” Cook added that Turkish fighters and allied “Syrian forces” are involved in a “serious” and “important” fight for the town.

The Islamic State’s propaganda arm, Amaq News Agency, has celebrated the jihadis’ ability to hold off Turkey in Al Bab thus far. On Jan. 12, Amaq released an infographic (seen above) offering self-reported statistics on the fighting. Amaq claimed that 21 “martyrdom operations” (suicide attacks) and other tactics had thwarted the Turkish advance up until that point. Amaq has also streamed other content from the battle, including images of Turkish tanks and vehicles that have been allegedly destroyed.

Al Bab has long been one of the Islamic State’s main hubs inside Syria. Abu Muhammad al Adnani, the group’s spokesman and senior manager tasked with overseeing plots against the West, was killed in an American airstrike near the town in Aug. 2016.

The Islamic State is no longer contending with just Turkish-backed ground forces approaching from the north. In mid-January, Bashar al Assad’s regime, with Russian air cover, began their own push toward Al Bab, thereby squeezing the jihadis from multiple directions.

Syrian regime forces approaching Al Bab from the south

Syrian Armed forces and allied militias have captured a number of towns and villages south of Al Bab since beginning their assault. Their offensive has been documented by pro-regime news sources, as well as independent, anti-regime outlets.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Jan. 27 that the Syrian regime’s assault is led by Suheil al Hassan, the commander of the Tiger Forces. Al Hassan’s men have reportedly captured villages, a university and various other points on their approach. SOHR described it as a “wide military operation” by the Assad regime, and pointed out that al Hassan has battled the Islamic State’s men in Aleppo before, including during clashes at a power plant in the province last year.

The so-called caliphate’s Amaq News Agency has released a number of videos and photos from the fighting.

One video, released on Jan. 26, documents a suicide attack on Syrian regime forces using a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (VBIED). According to Amaq, the bombing took place in a village named Madyunah, which is southwest of Al Bab.

A screen shot from Amaq’s short clip can be seen on the right. Plates of armor were added to the front of the explosives-laden vehicle and also covered its wheels. This is a common tactic used in the Islamic States’s VBIED operations, as it is intended to prevent the vehicle from being disabled by enemy fire before reaching its target.

Another video, released on Jan. 27, includes scenes of Islamic State fighters clashing with Syrian regime forces near the same village. Later that day, Amaq posted a video of Syrian regime helicopters dropping barrel bombs in the area. Still other Amaq videos and statements purportedly document battles with Assad’s loyalists near the town of Khanasir, which is also located in Aleppo province.

It remains to be seen if this ad hoc coalition of forces can eject the Islamic State from Al Bab in the coming weeks.

Syria: Human slaughterhouse: Mass hangings and extermination at Saydnaya Prison, Syria
By Amnesty International, 7 February 2017, Index number: MDE 24/5415/2017

At Saydnaya Military Prison, the Syrian authorities have quietly and methodically organized the killing of thousands of people in their custody. Amnesty International’s research shows that the murder, torture, enforced disappearance and extermination carried out at Saydnaya since 2011 have been perpetrated as part of an attack against the civilian population that has been widespread, as well as systematic, and carried out in furtherance of state policy. We therefore conclude that the Syrian authorities’ violations at Saydnaya amount to crimes against humanity. Amnesty International urgently calls for an independent and impartial investigation into crimes committed at Saydnaya.

Amnesty: Pahamaineisessa syyrialaisvankilassa hirtetty salaa jopa 13 000 ihmistä
http://www.iltasanomat.fi/ulkomaat/art-2000005077783.html
Raportin tiistaina julkaissut ihmisoikeusjärjestö vaatii YK:ta aloittamaan tapauksesta tutkinnan.
Syyrian hallitus on teloittanut hirttämällä tuhansia vankeja ja syyllistynyt systemaattiseen kidutukseen sotilasvankilassa lähellä Damaskosta, väittää kansainvälinen ihmisoikeusjärjestö Amnesty International.

Amnestyn mukaan teloitukset tapahtuivat vuosien 2011 ja 2015 välisenä aikana. Tiistaina julkaistussa raportissa kerrotaan, että keskimäärin 20-50 ihmistä hirtettiin joka viikko Saydnayan sotilasvankilassa ja neljän vuoden aikana teloituksia tapahtui yhteensä 5 000–13 000.

Syyrian hallitus ja presidentti Bashar al-Assad ovat kiistäneet aiemmat väitteet kidutuksesta ja laittomista teloituksista satojatuhansia henkiä vaatineen sisällissodan aikana.

– Uhreissa ylivoimaisesti edustettuina ovat siviilit, joiden uskotaan vastustaneen hallitusta, raportissa todetaan.

– Monet muut vangit Saydnayan sotilasvankilassa ovat kuolleet sen jälkeen, kun he ovat joutuneet jatkuvasti kidutetuiksi ja heidät on jätetty systemaattisesti ilman ruokaa, vettä, lääkkeitä ja hoitoa.

Raportin mukaan teloitukset tehtiin salassa ja ruumiit haudattiin pääkaupungin ulkopuolelle joukkohautoihin. Perheet eivät saaneet tietoa teloitettujen läheistensä kohtalosta.

Raportti perustuu 84 silminnäkijän haastatteluihin, ja mukana oli muun muassa entisiä vanginvartijoita, vankeja, tuomareita ja asianajajia. Amnesty vaatii, että YK aloittaa tapauksesta tutkinnan.

Voihan siinä noinkin käydä, mutta toisaalta kuukausi sitten Syyrian armeijan pääpainopiste oli Aleppon takaisinvaltauksessa, joka sitoi pääosan resursseista.

No mutta. Oikeamielisen (TM) faktisen faktan mukaan Amnesty on nykyisin täysin natolaisten ja Sorosin kontrolloima järjestö, pelkkä varjo entisestään. Ja entäs länsiliittoutuman hengiltä pommittamat ziljardi ihmistä. Näin kertoo ja mutkuttelee meille esimerkiksi VTA.

Odotetaanpa vaan hetkeä jolloin Amnesty paljastaa räikeitä ihmisoikeusrikkomuksia, joihin Yhdysvallat liittolaisineen on syyllistynyt (tai joissa on osallisena), kuinka Amnestyn raportit siinävaiheessa ovatkin totuudenmukaisia, joita ei voi - eikä pidä - kritisoida. Kummallisen nyrjähtänyt on VTA:lainen maailma.

Iran and Russia Are Apparently Fighting Each Other in Syria


Between Jan. 23 and 27, 2017, there were reports that Syrian president Bashar Al Assad had suffered a stroke and had to be hospitalized. The usually pro-Assad British newspaper The Independent claimed that the Syrian president was suffering serious psychological strain.

Allegations of a president’s poor health take on extra significance in a Russian proxy state. During the Cold War, the Soviets frequently cited allied leaders’ purported medical and psychological problems when launching military interventions — takeovers, essentially — in the countries of the supposedly-ailing heads of state.

Did the same thing just happen in Syria?

On Jan. 28, there were reports that Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps militia had tried to depose Al Assad and replace him with his brother Maher — and that Russian forces had thwarted the attempted coup by blocking Iranian agents in 11 Damascus districts and at the strategic Almaza air base. The maneuvering reportedly occurred amid a schism within Syria’s ruling Alawite community between pro-Russian and pro-Iranian elements.

The crisis seemed to pass two days later. “President Assad is in excellent health,” the regime announced on Jan. 30.

To be clear, the evidence of an attempted Iranian coup in Syria— and a Russian countercoup — is thin. But then, evidence of internal politics in Damascus is always thin.

That said, it’s no secret that on their arrival in Syria in August and September 2015, Russian officials found the regime and its military in a state of a complete disorder — and unable to continue the war on their own.

In rescuing Al Assad’s regime from collapse, the Russians preferred to deal with state institutions. But the regime was so weak that the Russians had no choice but to work closely with Al Assad’s non-state allies such as Hezbollahand militias including the Liwa Al Qods, staffed by pro-Al Assad Palestinians.

Unsurprisingly, some top Russian military commanders expressed strong dislike for Al Assad and called for a complete reorganization of the estimated 70,000-man regime army. In the autumn of 2015, the Russians gathered up some surviving Syrian army forces in Lattakia, combined with Russian units and some militias and formed the new IV Assault Corps.

The reforms continued into 2016, culminating in the establishment of the new V Assault Corps in the Aleppo area. Advisers from Moscow retrained Syrian militia fighters and equipped them with Russian weapons and gear.

Russia’s consolidation of power in Syria surely startled Iranian agents in the country. While the IRGC is largely in favor of Russian intervention in Syria, Russian and Iranian methods in the country are not entirely compatible. Russia’s success in the country can be Iran’s loss.

The Russians and the IRGC in Syria have been at odds virtually since the moment the first of roughly 10,000 Russians arrived in the country. Moscow’s goal is to preserve Al Assad’s government in some form, even if that means giving up parts of the old Syria. By contrast, Tehran wants to “liberate” all of Syria from rebel and jihadist forces and restore a strong — and strongly pro-Iranian — regime.

While Moscow aims to reinforce, to whatever extent is possible, the regime’s conventional military, Iran is forming a Syrian version of Hezbollah and has likewise enlisted Iraqi Shi’a militias — all at great cost to itself. Iran controls some 40,000 fighters in Syria.

The financially-depleted Al Assad regime cannot afford to compensate Tehran in cash, so Damascus has been paying back the IRGC with real estate. The more land the Iranians own in Syria, the more determined they are to steer the war their own way.

It appears that the Russia-Iran rivalry has played out within the Syrian army. The Republican Guards Division remains loyal to Bashar Al Assad and has contributed significantly to the Russian reorganization effort.

Not so the 4th Armored Division, one of the key units defending Damascus — and which Maher Al Assad commands. The 4th Armored Division reportedly went on high alert during the apparent coup attempt in late January.

Previously, the two division, one each answering to a different Al Assad, had reportedly shot at each other.

For now the status quo reigns in Syria. If indeed the IRGC did attempt to replace Bashar Al Assad in late January, it clearly failed. But that doesn’t mean the regime is safe and secure in its current form. Syria still relies on two foreign allies. And those allies still don’t get along with each other.

Täytyypä sanoa että harvemmin on tullut missään luettua tällaista. Yleensä Amnestyä kuulee sanottavan kommunistien keksinnöksi jonka ainoa tehtävä on mustamaalata Yhdysvaltoja ja muita länsimaita.

Lukaisin raportin läpi. Korutont' on kertomaa, Katyn-henkistä "puhdistusta" eikä edes riitä että ihminen tapetaan vaan myös hakataan ja kidutetaan ensin.
Lähi-Idän ihmisoikeusrikkomuksia selvitellessä on aina todistajien liioittelun vaara. Tulee mieleen eräs ISISin kynsistä selvinnyt nainen joka väitti ISISin taistelijoiden keittäneen ja syöneen lapsia vankien edessä. Myös amerikkalaisten johtaman Abu Ghraibin kaikki vankien kidutustarinat eivät vaikuta uskottavilta. Vaikka tietysti, helppohan se on aina kotisohvalta sanoa. Amnestyn Syyria-raportin uskottavuutta tukee monet samanlaiset todistajanlausunnot ja kuolleista otetut valokuvat.

Raportin mukaan oikeudenkäynneistä ja teloituksista on pidetty tarkkaa kirjanpitoa, joten ellei papereita laajamittaisesti hävitetä, niin totuus tapahtumista voi joskus selvitäkin. Myös hautapaikkojen pitäisi olla ainakin osittain tiedossa.
