Syria, 19 September 2015: More NATO Turkish invaders annihilated! Arab League turns out to be Israeli League in disguise!

“…Assad has to go…..It doesn’t have to be on day one or month one……reach an understanding of how this can best be achieved.”-John Kerry, U.S. Secretary of State

“[Syrian Kurds] pushed ISIL back and in the process, regained more than 17,000 square kilometers of territory — more than 6,500 square miles — previously held by the enemy. They’ve also retaken critical border crossing points between Syria and Turkey, including Kobani [and] Tal Abyad, and going forward, this should help abate the flow of foreign fighters into Syria. So, we want to see these anti-ISIL forces operating in Syria continue to be successful.”-Lieutenant  Colonel Patrick Ryder, USAF, but could the last sentence be an Orwellian Double Speak?

“A newly-declassified CENTCOM document……  ….reveals for the first time that French, Canadian, Dutch and Australian aircraft have all been involved in problem incidents in Iraq, which between them allegedly killed up to 30 civilians.”

Despite the U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed wars in Syria and Iraq the two countries signed a Memorandum of Understanding expanding trade between the Syrian Exporters Union and the Iraqi Peasants Associations.

The Alliance of Palestinian Resistance Forces, in Syria, condemns the Arab League’s silence over the Israeli occupation and shutdown al-Aqsa Mosque in al-Quds (Jerusalem). Palestinian Resistance Forces say this proves the Arab League is actually an Israeli League.

The U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) has proclaimed “It is strictly forbidden to run any Internet system or publisher (Wi-Fi) starting from the morning of 6 / Thu al-Hijjah / 1436 H, corresponding to 19th / September / 2015 until further notice, and at any place within the sector of al-Bokamal.”

Aleppo Governorate: The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continue to engage in heavy fighting with U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jabhat al-Nusra (Nusra Front) insurgents, including near the Syrian Arab Army Air Force Academy.  Street fighting rages in the city of Aleppo, an insurgent tunnel was blown up.  Along the border with NATO member Turkey, the town of Hareitan was destroyed as insurgents coming from Turkey were using it as a staging point as they invaded Syria.   In the northest part of the governorate reports that DAESH attacked YPG (Kurdish People’s Protection Units) positions.  Syrian Arab Army Air Force tried to support YPG by launching airstrikes against DAESH.

Damascus (Rif Dimashq) area:  Syrian Arab Army, Palestinian Liberation Army, local militias and Lebanese Resistance Regiments continued battling U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jaish al-Islam insurgents, in an attempt to push them to the city’s center.  In the eastern part of the province (governorate) battles raged near the Rahma fuel station.

Daraa Governorate:  The Syrian Arab Army attacked supply lines (lines of communications) of Jabhat al-Nusra.

Deir Ezzor Governorate:  DAESH (Islamic State) continued to attacked a military air base.  The Syrian Arab Army Air Force launched numerous airstrikes.   Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says 12 local pro-Syria militia were killed.

Hama Governorate: Syrian Arab Army Air Force bombed Jabhat al-Nusra insurgents in the villages of al-Bahsa and al-Enkawi. DAESH was also bombed in an airstrike in al-Baroudi farm south of Qasr Ibn Wardan village.

Hasakah Governorate:  Reports of airstrikes against DAESH.

Homs Governorate:  The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continued to fight insurgents across the governorate.  In the northern area battles continue with DAESH (Islamic State) near Tadmur (Palmyra), including the al-Hail oil field 40km east of Tadmur.  Independent reports say 12 DAESH killed and 14 civilians killed.

Idleb Governorate:  Syrian Arab Army Air Force and local Shia militias report increased battles, not just with Jaish Al-Fateh and Jabhat al-Nusra, but with Turkistan (Uighur) Islamic Party, Jund al-Aqsa, and fighters from Uzbekistan (Osbkih) and Chechnya.   At least 12 insurgent vehicles, including three main battle tanks, a BMP (armored personnel carrier) and five car bombs, were destroyed. Vehicles rescuing the defeated insurgents (in Ma’aret Masreen town near al-Foua’a) came from NATO member Turkey, crossing the border back into Turkey with dozens of dead and wounded.  News reports out of Lebanon say more than 1-hundred U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed insurgents were killed.  Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says Nusra Front insurgents executed 71 captured Syrian Arab Army Air Force personnel at the Abu al-Duhur air base.

Lattakia Governorate: Syrian Arab Army Air Force reported they killed more than 80 Jabhat al-Nusra insurgents along the Mediterranean coastline.

Raqqah Governorate: Unconfirmed reports that DAESH (Islamic State) destroyed a YPG (Kurdish People’s Protection Units of Rojava) vehicle.  Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says insurgents blew up the Kurdish People’s House of the Democratic Union Party building.

Sweida Governorate: Syrian Arab Army continued battles with DAESH (Islamic State) in al-Saqiyeh village.

Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says a man was beheaded by DAESH (Islamic State) for being a witch!

Fukushima – WIPP – Radiation Fallout: INL admits “nobody really knows what’s going on.” Radioactive trash dump in U.S. on fire?

19 September 2015 (12:24 UTC-07 Tango 01)/28 Shahrivar 1394/05 Dhu l-Hijja 1436/07 Yi-You (8th month) 4713

“The Agency has for many years made a major contribution to development by making nuclear science and technology available in areas such as food production, water management and agriculture. Our work deserves greater recognition.”-Amano Yukio, UN IAEA

India: “Over the past four months, sporadic rainfall saw Mumbai’s UV Index (UVI) levels touch the ‘high risk’ category. Their immediate effect can be seen in form of sun burns, long-term exposure can lead to skin cancer and cataract.  ‘The sporadic rain pattern is responsible for the high UV radiations in the city this monsoon,’ said Gufran Beig, project director, System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR), IITM. ‘When (the number of) rainy days are less followed by a long period of sunny days, UV radiation levels peak.’”

Ukraine: “International heavy lift company Mammoet and its client Novarka have successfully connected the two halves of the New Safe Confinement (NSC) structure at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. This was needed following the catastrophic nuclear accident in 1986.”

United States: “Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.), ranking member of the House Communications Subcommittee, are accusing the FCC of failing to enforce safety guidelines on cell tower worker exposure to radiofrequency radiation, saying they are putting the health and safety of a quarter of a million workers at risk.”

“Exposure to high doses of radiation triggers a number of potentially lethal effects. Among the most severe is the gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity syndrome caused by the destruction of the intestinal barrier, resulting in bacterial translocation, systemic bacteremia, sepsis, and death….   ….TP [Thrombin-derived Peptide] 508 may be an effective emergency nuclear countermeasure that could be delivered within 24 h post exposure to increase survival and delay mortality, giving victims time to reach clinical sites for advanced medical treatment.”

“Scientists have recently developed a new hybrid solar energy system that harnesses all of the sun’s radiation…..”

Idaho:  Researchers at the INL are on the verge of creating a system to track nuclear waste from the oil industry.  The oil industry uses radioactive material as part of its oil extraction process.  The new system will be tested in North Dakota because “It’s the Wild West out there. Waste sites are taking the wrong stuff, or they’re dumping it in fields. Nobody really knows what’s going on.”-Doug Akers, Idaho National Laboratory

Massachusetts: “As a resident of Plum Island, Newbury, I are deeply concerned about the threat posed by Seabrook Station — the threat of radiation release. If a radiation release were to occur, evacuating this area would be impossible.”

“…parents filed a lawsuit claiming that the Fay School in Southborough has ‘high-intensity Wi-Fi emissions’ that have harmed their son……he has a condition called Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome (EHS)”

Missouri: “…radiation from the West Lake Landfill in Bridgeton has spread to neighboring properties. The reports also suggested that an underground fire at the neighboring Bridgeton Landfill is moving toward radioactive waste and could reach it as soon three to six months. The landfills’ owner, Republic Services, has vehemently maintained that the situation at the landfills is under control.”

“Loretta Copeland is shutting the doors on her dog grooming business on Natural Bridge Road, near McKelvey Road, about a mile from the landfill. She says she’s afraid of getting cancer.  ‘…it just seems like everybody you talk to they either have cancer or they know somebody……..Who wants to buy a grooming shop sitting within one mile from the landfill?’”

New Mexico: “The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant simulated a full-scale emergency response on Wednesday to prepare the facility and community in case an emergency occurred again.”

“The Underground Ventilation System at Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is being upgraded to provide additional airflow into the facility’s underground.”

“…burying 34 tons of weapons-grade plutonium would be far cheaper and more practical than completing a multibillion-dollar plant that would turn the radioactive material into commercial reactor fuel.”

New York: “The studies found that 50 percent to 75 percent of the animals who were exposed to a potentially lethal dose of radiation died without any treatment. Using Cleveland BioLabs’ Entolimod drug, less than a third of all animals that received the drug died, even when the drug was administered as much as 48 hours after exposure.”

“An upstate New York man faces life in prison after he became the first person ever convicted in the U.S. of trying to acquire a radiation weapon for mass destruction…”

Washington: Hanford to remain Undeclared Interim Storage site “By early 2007 the decision was made to construct a mox fuel plant at the Savannah River Site (SRS), in South Carolina. Construction is 70 percent complete, and some $4.5 billion has been spent.  ……DOE-Headquarters is now considering major/arbitrary changes to the final disposition of MOX, and stopping construction the mos facility at SRS!    DOE’s new path is considering ‘downblending’ (diluting) the weapons grade plutonium and adding it to waste going to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in New Mexico. DOE reports shutting down the SRS mox plant could cost a billion dollars.”

“In the near term the cost of dealing with the solid waste would be about $20 million from the DOE Richland Operations Office annual budget, which is about $1 billion a year, according to the state of Washington.”

Washington DC: “In 1981, anthropologists, engineers, nuclear physicists, and others assembled to form the Human Interference Task Force, at the behest of the U.S. Department of Energy and Bechtel Corp. The impetus of the task force, according to a technical report issued a few years later, was to ‘reduce the likelihood of future humans unintentionally intruding on radioactive-waste isolation systems.’”

Japan:  Off the coast of Hokkaido a fish called a Wolffish was caught. The man who caught it says it’s one of the largest Wolffish ever caught.  See internet ‘TV’ news report here.

Proof of arrogant incompetence: “…there was a basic assumption in Japan that the design of nuclear power plants and the safety measures that had been put in place were sufficiently robust to withstand external events of low probability and high consequences….there was a tendency for organizations and their staff not to challenge the level of safety……resulted in a situation where safety improvements were not introduced….”

More proof of government incompetence: “…a team of Japanese researchers report that evacuation following the Fukushima nuclear accident may have been much worse for Japanese citizen’s health than nuclear radiation.”

“Authorities in the small city of Nikko in Japan’s Tochigi Prefecture, some 175 km away from the Fukushima nuclear power plant, have said that at least 334 bags containing radioactive soil have been swept into a tributary of the Kinugawa river, The Asahi Shimbun reports.

According to the city’s authorities, the washed-away waste was only part of hundreds of bags being stored at the Kobyakugawa Sakura Koen park alongside the river. Another 132 bags of waste reportedly rolled down the slopes.” 

‘Black’ helicopters return to California! U.S. will increase radiation contamination limits!

Syria, 18 September 2015: Insurgent supply lines hit inside Israel! Refugees flooding Europe proven to be False Flag!

“We should be optimistic, because the Russian side realizes what is plotted against Syria and realizes the dangers of the spread of DAESH, Jabhat al-Nusra and al-Qaeda-linked terrorist organizations…That’s why the Russian decision in this regard is clear, and we in Syria welcome this Russian stance.”-Walid al-Moallem, Syria’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign & Expatriates Minister

Russia’s ambassador to Lebanon says President Putin will present a three stage plan to end the war in Syria on 28 September.

In Moscow, Russia, government officials said that if Syria asks for increased military help it will be considered.

United States claims Russia has sent four military aircraft to Syria.  No mention by Syrian or Russian news sources, but if you realize that Syria has been buying military weapons from Russia, and the Soviet Union since the 1960s, then it’s a case of No Shit Sherlock (dumb ‘merican military leaders)!  The warmongering Wall Street Journal called the normal arrival of four aircraft as “a major military escalation”.  (did the weenie heads at WSJ think the ‘liberation of Iraq’ was armageddon? Oh that’s right, Shock & Awe)

The People’s Republic of China’s ambassador to Syria expressed support for Syria as it concerns China’s new economic policy known as One Belt One Road Initiative.

The European Union has determined that four out of five refugees are not Syrian!  They are Afghans, Albanians (no war in their country), Ethiopians, Iraqis, Nigerians and Pakistanis.  The majority are economic migrants not war refugees.

Aleppo Province: The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continue to engage in heavy fighting with U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jabhat al-Nusra (Nusra Front) insurgents, including near the Syrian Arab Army Air Force Academy.

Damascus area:  Syrian Arab Army and Lebanese Resistance Regiments continued battling U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jaish al-Islam insurgents, including a battle near the sports stadium in Douma City.  Reports that two tunnels used by insurgents blew up.  The Syrian Arab Army has been boobytrapping any tunnels they find.  Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reports at least two Syrian Arab Army personnel killed and three insurgents killed.   Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says they counted at least 15 thermobaric ‘barrel’ bombs dropped on the city of Darayya.

Daraa Province:  The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continued their assaults against insurgents and the areas they control.  Unconfirmed reports of 21 people killed.

Deir Ezzor Province:  DAESH (Islamic State) attacked a military air base.  Syrian Arab Army and Air Force say they repelled the attack.  Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says a man was beheaded by DAESH (Islamic State) for being a witch!

Hama Province: Syrian Arab Army and Air Force engaged U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed Jaish Al-Fateh.

Homs Province:  In the southwest part of the province Syrian Arab Army and Air Force stopped an offensive by Jabhat al-Nusra.  In the northern part of the province battles took place with DAESH (Islamic State), including 25 airstrikes near Tadmur (Palmyra).

Idleb Province:  Syrian Arab Army Air Force continued airstrikes against Jaish Al-Fateh and Jabhat al-Nusra, including the destruction of Nusra Front’s Sharia Court.  A Nusra Front gun-truck was destroyed with a Russian guided missile. Nusra Front hit two villages with four car bombs and rocket artillery strikes.  The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says as many as 250 rockets were fired into the villages of al-Foua and Kefraya.  No reports concerning casualties.

Lattakia Province: Syrian Arab Army Air Force launched numerous airstrikes against insurgent positions.

Quneitra Province: Syrian Arab Army targeted supply lines (lines of communications) for Jabhat al-Nusra, inside Israel!  The border village of Bureiqa is considered the main crossing point of supplies from Israel.

Raqqa Province: Unconfirmed reports that DAESH (Islamic State) destroyed a YPG (Kurdish People’s Protection Units of Rojava)  vehicle.

Sweida Province: Syrian Arab Army engaged in several battles with DAESH (Islamic State), including the destruction of a DAESH convoy.

U.S. lies….NATO insurgents destroyed! Insurgent supplies coming from U.S. controlled Jordan!

Imperial Japan rises from Atomic Bombing Ashes! New law allows Japan to unilaterally attack any country in the World!

18 September 2015 (13:13 UTC-07 Tango 01)/27 Shahrivar 1394/04 Dhu l-Hijja 1436/06 Yi-You (8th month) 4713

After decades with a constitution that forbade the project of offensive military power outside of Japan, and despite weeks of protests by tens of thousands of Japanese, the neo-imperialist government has succeeded in passing what they call a “collective self defense” law that gives political leaders the right to unilaterally declare war on any country in the world.

Abe (Aww-Bay) Shinzō, who was just re-elected by default (no opposing candidates), claims the law will prevent war.  Famous Orwellian Double Speak last words as imperialist have always made such claims right before major warfare breaks out.

Abe claims Japan is being threatened by China and Korea, but I’ve been following Japanese foreign politics for several years now and it is Japan, with the backing of the Obama regime, that has been rattling the sabers!  It’s is about oil, just like it was in the first half of the 20th century when Japan took by force territories from Russia, China, Vietnam, Philippines, Korea and many other east and southeast Asian lands.

Japan oil industry says U.S. & EU oil sanctions against Iran will not affect global oil supply!

Syria, 17 September 2015: U.S. lies about helping Kurds! More proof U.S. is sending in the Chechens! Turkish insurgents destroyed! Insurgent supplies coming from U.S. controlled Jordan!

“If he’s not the overall military commander for the Islamic State, he’s definitely in charge of the Northern Syrian Front, which is one of the most active and serious.”-U.S. veteran Mitchell Prothero claiming a U.S. trained insurgent is a top DAESH in Syria commander, PBS Newshour interview

“That’s when we noticed that several members of the unit had American military Combat Infantryman Badges on their right shoulders from the 82nd Airborne. To defuse the tension, I pulled out my American passport and declared that they couldn’t arrest comrades they’d fought alongside, as I had done numerous embeds with the 82nd in Iraq, where some of these men had been stationed earlier that year.”-U.S. veteran Mitchell Prothero describing his first encounter with a man who is now known as Abu Omar al Shishani, a U.S. trained Chechen now a top leader of DAESH (Islamic State in Syria).

“We trained him well, and we had lots of help from America.”-former Georgian defense official about Shishani.  Now, remember who did the Boston Bombings?  That’s right, Chechens whom ‘conspiracy theorists’ say were supported by the U.S.

U.S. Army General Lloyd J. Austin III told the Senate Armed Services Committee that Special Forces have been assisting Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) in Rojava.  However, I’ve read the official YPG news site and there’s no mention of U.S. forces helping them!

 

In fact, YPG representatives accuse U.S. backed Syrian National Coalition of supporting DAESH (Islamic State): “The [U.S. led] coalition….have been providing political and financial support to DAESH since the radical group swept into Rojava…..U.S. and European powers must reconsider their relations with the Syrian National Coalition. This opposition bloc claims to back the aspirations of the Syrian people while it actually funds the terrorist group of DAESH.”-Redur Khalil

“…it is illegal for Australia to bomb in Syria. There is no UN imprimatur for Australia to bomb in the sovereign state of Syria. It’s as simple as that. Moreover, the Government’s claim that it will be legal by virtue of collective self-defence is simply untrue. The fact is that the sovereign state of Syria, as odious as the Assad regimen is, does not pose a threat to any other country.”-Andrew Wilkie, Australian Member of Parliament

“French air strikes on Syria will start within a few weeks…..133 French citizens or residents have been killed fighting for IS [DAESH].”-Radio France Internationale (rfi), so, does this mean the reason for the French airstrikes is because they’re tired of seeing their citizens dying for DAESH (Islamic State)?  Who’re they really going to be bombing?

Aleppo Province: The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continue to engage in heavy fighting with U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jabhat al-Nusra (Nusra Front) insurgents, including near the al-Neirab Airport.  In Kafr Hamra, Syrian Arab Army claims to have destroyed insurgents sent in by NATO member Turkey.

Damascus area:  Syrian Arab Army and Lebanese Resistance Regiments continued battling U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) in their efforts to push them towards the center of al-Zabadani City.  In Harasta, an insurgent artillery mortar attack hit a hospital bus, killing two civilians and wounding 20.  In al-Zablatani and al-Qassaa, police report insurgent mortar attacks wounding one civilian and destroying two POVs (personally owned vehicles).

Daraa Province:  The Syrian Arab Army Air Force attacked the supply lines (lines of communication) of Jabhat al-Nusra (Nusra Front) which originate in the U.K./U.S. controlled Kingdom of Jordan.

Hama Province: Syrian Arab Army reports engaging and destroying insurgents operating gun-trucks armed with 23mm guns.  In Misyaf City, Customs Police captured a car loaded with 8-thousand 4-hundred rounds of machine gun ammo.  The driver was arrested.

Homs Province:  Syrian Arab Army engaged several DAESH (Islamic State) groups throughout the province.

Idleb Province:  Syrian Arab Army Air Force bombed a U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed Jaish Al-Fateh convoy on the al-Frekeh/al-Ziara road.

Raqqa Province: Syrian Arab Army Air Force bombed DAESH (Islamic State) positions inside Raqqa City.

Syria, 16 September 2015: “So….they will have more refugees!” Islamic State destroying historical sites to drive up prices of contraban!

“…the West now is crying for the refugees with one eye and aiming at them with a machine gun with the second…those refugees left Syria because of the terrorism….the West [U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israel] is supporting terrorists since the beginning of the crisis when it said that this was a peaceful uprising, when they said later it’s moderate opposition, and now…there is terrorism like al-Nusra and DAESH….So….they will have more refugees!”-Bashar al-Assad, elected President of Syria

Russian General Nikolay Bogdanovsky denied that Russia is “currently” building a giant air base in Syria, but then added “anything can happen”.

U.S. Army General Lloyd J. Austin III told the Senate Armed Services Committee that despite spending $500-million USD to overtly train Syrian insurgents a total of “four or five Syrian individuals….remain in the fight”.

NATO member France announced it will begin airstrikes against Syria.

NATO member and British empire member United Kingdom is considering a no fly zone over Syria.  The only planes flying over Syria are airliners (including Russian transport aircraft) and Syrian Arab Army Air force, so who is the United Kingdom going to target? Obviously not the insurgents!

NATO partner and British empire member Australia announced that they will pull 1-hundred Diggers from their training missions with Iraqi troops and ‘reshape’ their mission to targeting Syria.

United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) reports that it appears the U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed insurgents are engaged in widespread and large scale looting of ancient artifacts for sale on the blackmarket.  Only elites (the rich) in the ‘West’ engage in buying looted artifacts: “Satellite imagery shows that archaeological sites in Syria are dotted by thousands of illegal excavations … that show there is looting on an industrial scale. Limiting the trafficking in cultural property is a top priority because it finances the actions of the extremists.”-Irina Bokova

Is the real reason the insurgents are blowing up ancient sites is that it drives up the price of the artifacts they recovered, before they destroyed the sites?

Vice President Najah al-Attar presented the Syrian Order of Merit of Excellent Degree to the family of the martyred archeologist Khaled al-Asaad.  Asaad was killed by U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) for refusing to help them collect historical artifacts to sell to the rich A-holes in the U.S., Europe, Israel and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Aleppo Province: The Syrian Arab Army and Air Force continue to engage in heavy fighting with U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed DAESH (Islamic State) and Jabhat al-Nusra (Nusra Front) insurgents. Battles raged in dozens of villages, at the  Syrian Arab Army Air Force Academy and at a Scientific Research building.  Two civilians killed by insurgent rocket artillery attack in Aleppo City.

Damascus area:  Syrian Arab Army units pushed U.S.-EU-Saudi-Israeli backed Jaish al-Islam insurgents out of the hills overlooking the Damascus-Homs highway in Harasta.  Syrian Arab Army and Lebanese Resistance Regiments liberated more city blocks of al-Zabadani city.  They are pushing insurgents towards the city center.  It’s also reported that insurgents were killed while using the city’s sewer system to try and escape.  A number of insurgents killed west of Douma, their Toyota gun-trucks and a bulldozer were destroyed.  In al-Abasyeen City, a man and a woman wounded by insurgent mortar artillery attack that hit a market.

Daraa Province:  Syrian Arab Army & Air Force units continued hitting Jabhat al-Nusra (al Nusra Front) insurgents, including an insurgent convoy seen near “the Old Customs building and in the surroundings of the Police Housing Compound and at the road near the mosques of al-Hamza and al-Abbas in Daraa al-Balad neighborhood.”

Hama Province: Syrian Arab Army & Air Force units engaged in dozens of battles with Jaish al-Fateh insurgents.

Homs Province:  In Homs City, eight civilians wounded when an insurgent blew up his Kia Rio.  Apparently only the insurgent was killed.

Idleb Province:  Syrian Arab Army & Air Force units engaged in dozens of battles with Jaish al-Fateh insurgents.  Idleb borders Hama Province.

Lattakia Province: The Syrian Arab Army attacked an insurgent wireless communications operation near Bojak Castle and Beit Shrouq village.  15 insurgents killed, 20 wounded.  Syrian Arab Army Air Force bombed insurgents in Birnass village and in Salma town.

More civilians killed by U.S. backed insurgent car bombs!
