— 🇮🇷/🇸🇾 NEW: 'We have deployed some of our advisory personnel within units of the Syrian Arab Army at the front, in order to organize them and motivate them to fight. We have positive hopes for the defense of Homs, and the situation in Western Hama countryside, in the Tartous and Latakia direction, is stable.' – Senior Iranian official

— 🇸🇾 Syrian Minister of Defense:

– Today, we are fighting a fierce and ongoing battle with the most brutal terrorist organizations, which are using a guerrilla approach, which forces our armed forces to use appropriate methods in fighting the battles, including advances and retreats, and withdrawals to some defensive points.

– These terrorist organizations are backed by Turkey and other actors, in terms of logistics, weaponry and planning, which complicates the situation.

– We are in a good field situation, and our armed forces have worked to redeploy to preserve lives.

– Military action in the context of battle tactics sometimes requires redeployment.

– Syria, with its army, people, leadership, and the support of its allies and friends, is capable of overcoming the challenges, no matter how severe or difficult.

– We confirm that what happened in the city of Hama today is a temporary tactical measure. Our forces are still in the vicinity of the city of Hama and are fully prepared and ready to confront any assault.'

I want to wait until tomorrow, during daytime, to confirm this. We've seen lots of claims during the past few days, and tbh I won't believe it till I see it. But very good if true.

Once again, this is all unconfirmed, this may be a huge SAA psyop, we have to wait till tomorrow.

If this all turns out to be fake tomorrow I will actually commit Seppuku.

MES, remember, remember what you said you will do tomorrow.
