issue in his Facebook account:
Very urgent
The Syrian authorities were able, thanks to information thorough, arrive at
the headquarters of senior officers and western regional in the basement of a
district of Aleppo-is, and capture them all alive.
A few names have already been ex filtered to Syrian journalists including me.
Seen the nationalities (us, French, British, German, Israelis, Turks, Saudis,
Moroccans, Qatari, etc.. etc) of these scumbags and their military ranks, I
assure you
Syria holds in this moment a big treasures to carry out the negotiations with
the countries that have destroyed.
Earlier in December, SF already noted that the US despearate attempts to push a
“diplomatic solution” in Aleppo could indicate that the Obama administration
stalling for time to extricate US mercenaries and special service members from
the Aleppo pocket:
Considering that US-led coalition military advisers have been widely operating
across Syria, training and assisting to the so-called “moderate opposition”
openly linked with al-Qaeda, the recently appeared reports are likely true.
For isntance, British military advisers have officially arrived to Syria to
restore combat capability of the ‘moderate’ opposition, retreated from Aleppo:
British military advisers have arrived to Syria in order to restore combat
capability of units of the ‘moderate’ opposition, retreated from Aleppo, the
Izvestiya newspaper reported, citing a statement of UK Defense Minister Michael
Fallon. According to Fallon, 20 British military instructors, who will train
the opposition forces, involved in the fight against the Islamic State (IS)
terrorist group, have already arrived at the destination.
The dispatch of British advisers was announced in October, long before the
recapture of Aleppo by the Syrian government forces. Initially, they had a task
to train recruits to conduct combined arms combat, as well as to teach them the
basics of tactical medicine and combat engineering. However, the situation
changed and the task was changed too.
