Update on rebel attacks in Syria

Excellent images and explanation provided by Denys Davydov.

Should the rebels cross the mountain range to the Russia Naval/Air Base or head straight to Damascas?

With Russia losing 1,000 troops daily, entrenched in Ukraine, and Biden leaving, a good time to attack Assad.

Russian influence in Syria, Georgia and the continent in Africa will be past tense. This scene reminds me of fascist Germany spreading its interests too thin.

The Biden Admin says it was caught by surprise. I don't buy it.

I think Russia is on the brink along with Assad.
