Russia Calls On U.S. To Hand Over Its Base In Al-Tanaf To Damascus

We urge Washington to immediately withdraw its troops from al-Tanaf are and transfer control over this territory to the Syrian government, which could take care of its citizens as we see it can do,” the Russian news agency, Sputnik, quoted Zakharova as saying.

Beside the base, the US-led coalition is also managing the al-Rukban camp, where tens of thousands of internally displaced civilians are living under poor humanitarian conditions. Zakharova said that Washington is responsible for this situation.

“The full responsibility for the depressing situation in the camp is borne, of course, by the United States, which illegally occupies this zone, and secondly, deploys its military base there, regularly providing material and technical support, while not contributing to the delivery of food and medicine to the residents of Rukban. It is necessary to immediately take measures to resettle the camp,” the spokeswoman said.

IDF Completes Major Military Drill Near Lebanese Border Amid Tensions With Iran

 

The drill reportedly imitated an armed conflict between the Israeli military and the Lebanese Hezbollah movement.

 

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have concluded a large-scale military drill in northern Israel this week, the Jerusalem Post reported Thursday.

 

The drill was conducted by the 450th Battalion from the IDF's School for Infantry Corps Professions & Squad Commanders, also known as Bislamach Brigade, and simulated a military conflict with Hezbollah, a Lebanese movement considered to be terrorist by Israel.

 

The drill comes amid rising tensions between Israel and Iran and ramped up diplomatic efforts to warm Sunni Arabic nations towards Tel Aviv.

 

The Bislamach Brigade is the unit where Israeli troops are sent to be trained as squad commanders and platoon sergeants.

 

"This course is the first one that they do as they go from [being a] soldier to officer. This course makes them an officer who has responsibility over some 12 soldiers," Lt.-Col. Liran Bitton of 450th Battalion told reporters. "They understand themselves better, the purpose of their service and their responsibilities. It's amazing to see the change."

 

Back in 2006, Israel fought a 34-day war with Hezbollah, and recently, tensions along Israel's northern border have been somewhat on the rise again. In particular, the IDF embarked on a mission to find and destroy Hezbollah tunnels dug under the border — which were built even before the war.

 

"The next war will be different than it was in the past," Bitton said in an interview with the Jerusalem Post. "The enemy has gotten better and has more advanced weapons and more experience. Both sides have advanced, and we know our enemy. But, at the same time, I am sure they know us, too."

 

Israel conducted numerous airstrikes in Syria in order to prevent alleged Iranian entrenchment in the Arab Republic, accusing Tehran of smuggling weapons to Hezbollah. However, Tel Aviv's incursions have led America's top intelligence officials to warn of an increased threat of regional war between Iran and Israel, the Jerusalem Post reports.

 

"We know how to prepare ourselves for the different fronts," Bitton continued, adding that "it's not about who we will face, but whether we are really prepared to confront them."

 

Asked for his ideas as to when the next war might begin, Bitton said he gets ready for war at any moment.

 

"I always think like that, so that I am prepared, and I prepare my soldiers," he said.

Combat Footage: Houthis Repel Large Attack On Border With Saudi Arabia

The Yemeni group’s media wing released a 4-mintue video showing Houthi fighters shelling gatherings of Saudi-led coalition troops with artillery and heavy machine guns. A Houthi sniper can be also seen targeting the coalition’s personnel.

 

“An escalation for an escalation, the blood of the martyrs is precious,” a field commander of the Houthis shouts in the end of the video.

 

Coalition attack helicopters and unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) carried out several airstrikes on the Houthis’ defenses to support Saudi-backed forces. However, the airstrikes were apparently ineffective.

 

The Saudi-led coalition launched several ground attacks against the Houthis in central and northern Yemen after the implementation of the UN-sponsored ceasefire agreement in the western part of the country. The coalition likely sees these attacks as a tool to pressure the Iranian-backed group.
