The STG managed to cross the Euphrates from Qarah Qawzaq and advanced to the vicinity of Hedit and the Septê base, where the YPG managed to stabilize the front. Kurdish forces also withdrew to the M-4 highway from other positions further south to the defenses erected along the highway.

Recomendar @VeSyria cuando emplea a QalaatAlMudiq , Nrg8000, GregoryPWaters o azelin para apoyarse en sus argumentos refleja un profundo problema de disonancia cognitiva de este mierdecilla madrileño. Es normal que el deficiente de Nacho girasol le irritara que @suriyakmaps colaborase con @descifraguerra y se quisiera hacer el listo, saliéndole, como a todos los subnormales de España con mentalidad de niño y pelo en los huevos que se creen que saben cómo funciona el mundo, desafortunadamente mal. Pero bueno, a todos estos hijos de puta que desde su casa y a miles de kilómetros blanquean terroristas al final les pasará factura.

Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 1426-1427:
Situation north of Kharkov: The locality of Dehtyarne on the border between Russia and Ukraine has witnessed intermittent positional fighting since July 2025. Similar to Sotnytskyi Kozachok, Russian troops enter and leave the locality crossing the border without solid control. However, in recent days, Russian army activity has increased. After re-entering Dehtyarne, it has expanded its area of operations to the outskirts of Nesterne and the Kruhle forest, which could be a prelude to an expansion of the zone of operations along this axis.

🚨 PERSONAL ANALYSIS | Syria's "Ceasefire" Chaos: Defeat for SDF... Or Part of a Bigger Master Plan?

📍 Middle East Update 🇸🇾🇮🇶🇮🇷🇺🇸🇮🇱 (Jan 20, 2026)

Brothers, I've been tracking this Syria situation closely for days now, and something doesn't add up. The Jan 18 integration deal was announced as a "historic unity" moment — ceasefire, SDF handing over oil fields/borders/prisons to Damascus. But just 48 hours later? Renewed heavy clashes in Kobani, Hasakah, Raqqa... ISIS fighters escaping prisons amid the fighting (81 recaptured so far, but chaos real). Talks collapsing, accusations flying both ways.
Mainstream calls it SDF "capitulating" under pressure. But in my personal view — from years watching these patterns — this isn't real loss. It's coordinated. Let me break it down step by step, dot by dot. This is my take, not official intel.
Thread 👇



➡️ First: Who's Really Pulling Strings in Syria?

SDF isn't independent — everyone knows they've been deeply backed by US/Israel for years (anti-ISIS ops, air support, logistics). They don't make big moves without approval.

The new Damascus government under al-Sharaa? Also navigating heavy US mediation — Trump calls, US envoys praising "unified Syria," pushing the deal hard.
So when SDF "loses" ground fast, signs a concession-heavy agreement, then chaos erupts immediately with ISIS escapes? It feels too convenient. Like a scripted handover to create instability, not accidental defeat.
I've seen this playbook before — pressure, "clashes," then "resolution" that shifts control quietly.


❗ The Bigger Picture: Chess Moves Across the Region

Think long-term strategy. To isolate and pressure Iran maximally, you need full control of the surrounding board.

Step 1: Lebanon — Hezbollah leadership hit hard, influence crippled.

Step 2: Syria — Post-Assad vacuum filled by controllable forces. Now this "integration" hands northeast resources/borders to Damascus (with US blessing).

Step 3: Iraq — The missing piece of chess. US officially drawing down troops... but renewed ISIS threat from prison escapes + Syria chaos? Perfect pretext for deeper involvement, "stabilization," or influence without full invasion.
ISIS as the tool? It maximizes damage, creates deniability

"we have to fight terror."

🇮🇷 Iran: Fully Surrounded, No Room for Past Mistakes

Look at the map honestly — US bases and facilities ringing Iran from every direction: Gulf states, Iraq, Syria access, Jordan, Afghanistan remnants, Israel coordination.
This isn't coincidence or just "defense." They've learned from previous rounds — no half-efforts. Buildup for overwhelming pressure when the moment comes: nuclear sites, proxies, economy.
Will they pull it off? Iran is tough, resilient, with strong allies. I can't predict success — too many variables. But the encirclement is clear, and Syria/Iraq chaos fits the pattern perfectly.

This is just my personal analysis — connecting open-source dots (live reports from Al Jazeera, Reuters, maps, statements). Years of following Middle East moves makes me skeptical of "organic" chaos here.

What do you brothers think? Is SDF really crumbling... or is this engineered for the next phase?

Stay awake out there.

Traduction: Recommending @VeSyria when he uses QalaatAlMudiq, Nrg8000, GregoryPWaters, or azelin to support his arguments reflects a deep problem of cognitive dissonance in this little shit from Madrid. It's normal that the deficient Nacho Girasol would be irritated that @suriyakmaps collaborated with @descifraguerra and wanted to act smart, coming off, like all the subnormals in Spain with a childish mentality and hair on their balls who think they know how the world works, unfortunately badly. But anyway, all these sons of bitches who whitewash terrorists from their homes thousands of miles away will eventually pay the price.

I'm sorry, but I think that someone who shows Kupiansk under complete Ukrainian control is not in a position to criticize other mappers. Perhaps the farce is of your own making by using only Ukrainian reports. Suriyakmaps shows Kupiansk as a disputed area, based on the use of both Ukrainian and Russian sources.
The desperation of the Ukrainian mappers to attack is admirable.

There is a tool called https://ukraineviews.org/ which allows everybody to compare interactive maps. Very useful to contrast the information & get better figure of what happen at the frontline. I recommed everyone to use it, as the "truth" is between all of these maps. Better that desesperate attacks of other's work.

Rifaat al-Assad, brother of Hafez al-Assad died. I recommend the DIA report on the Hama massacre led by him. Although he was responsible for the deaths of civilians, you will be surprised at how the figure of the “butcher of Hama” has been constructed over the years (like every historical character actually).

ISIS never disappeared from eastern Syria; its ideology simply endured among its fighters and sympathizers, posing a constant threat with sporadic insurgent actions. The reintegration of terrorists released from prison into the tribal society in Raqqa, Hasakah & Deir Ezzor will significantly bolster these numerous remnants, creating an embryo that will permeate the population until it hatches in the future.
