🇺🇸🇸🇾 US Proxy War in Syria
▪️Despite reported loss of Hama it should be remembered it and Homs have been traditional strongholds of US-backed extremists back to the 1980s;
▪️US-backed terrorists are advancing significantly slower as logistics are stretched out in a number of directions;
▪️Situation is still urgent, outcome impossible to predict until more information emerges regarding the disposition of troops on by sides;
▪️Again, before Russia’s intervention in 2015, nearly the whole country including parts of Damascus were overrun by US-backed terrorists;
▪️Many factors since 2015 have changed in Syria’s favor, the question remains how much has the US prepared these terrorists to compensate, and how overstretched are Russian/Iranian/Syrian forces following multiple escalations elsewhere since;

Update on US proxy war in Syria…
▪️Syrian forces continue withdrawing following a large offensive carried out by US-sponsored terrorists from Idlib, northern Syria;
▪️Syrian forces previously withdrew from these regions during the 2011-2015 phase of the US proxy war against Syria;
▪️Russian intervention allowed Syrian forces to incrementally take back territory with a specific task force, city-by-city, in operations that spanned years;
▪️It is still too early to draw conclusions about the disposition of forces on either side, including how overextended Russian and Iranian forces may be or the full depth of combat power of US-backed terrorists;
▪️Syrian forces are likely falling back because they are incapable of holding all of this territory at once, particularly in areas like Hama and Homs serving as traditional strongholds of US-backed extremism and will need to incrementally retake it as it did from 2015 onward;
