#Libya- Rada (#SDF/Kara) release new footage from the attack by Bashir (Bogra) militia on #Mitiga International Airport in #Tripoli from mid-January, as well as confessions from arrested militiamen- including plans to conduct VBIED attack .

#Egypt- some counter-militancy operations from North #Sinai: tunnel crossing into #Gaza discovered and destroyed, 12 IEDs dismantled, SVBIED destroyed along with several militant hideouts, vehicles carrying IED making materiel and spare parts seized

#Egypt- Paratroopers with AK+203 (Maadi AK+Maadi GL) and SIG SG552s

The Egyptian naval special forces started to participate in a real military ops, in 2015s during the 1st phase of martyr's right op in #Sinai , Their mission was to secure the coast, thwart smuggling attempts & participate in operations near the seashore.

Also from tasks of the naval special forces is to secure the gas fields ,coasts,& prevent attempts to infiltrate in addition to securing the Suez Canal in full in conjunction with air force / B.G.F / the 2nd and 3rd armies & police .

Russian in Deir Ez Zor. Unit unclear.

Their only range does not give many looks except steel targets, without much distance to work with. Kill houses are unchangeable, don't offer ballistic protection, so can't offer realistic training enviroments.

While adept at jumping, relatively are poor infantrymen/assualters

However, while specialist infrastructure is pretty good those dedicated to fundemental soldiering skills are very lacking. Especially for Special Operations Forces.

We also got a look at a virtual reality based training asset. Something that may be a recent addition for the Egyptians, but a sign of an educational system that produces well trained parachutists.

Based at Inshas along with the Thunderbolt. We get a look at the Para's training infrastructure. The infrastructure dedicated to jump training is fundementally sound.

The suspension raised helicopter is actually a very good tool for rope training.

INDIGENES COMMENDS MILITARY FOR RESTORING PEACE TO DIKWA EMIRATE

Dikwa was one of the local governments captured in 2014 and was under the control of Boko Haram terrorists – thousands of innocent civilians were affected during the period; resulting into tremendous humanitarian crisis. Some fled their homes while a lot of people were killed. The town was recaptured late 2015 in a strategic mission accomplished by the Nigerian army and Nigerian Airforce operating in tandem. Today with the presence of 22 Armoured brigade and other adjoining units; Dikwa has become a home once again for her people.

The Nigerian military have been commended by Dikwa indigenes for restoring peace to Dikwa Emirate - most of whom returned home from all across the country; mostly south west and south south region of Nigeria.

The Brigade Commander, Brigade General John Ochai who received some of the returnees on Monday 5th January 2018 said, ‘this is a testament that peace has come to stay in Dikwa and its environs; our commitment to protect you from all forms of aggression is absolute. We have orders from our government to protect you – orders that are consistent with our national protocols. Protecting you and your properties is our main priority’. He further added that, they should inform others still living abroad to return home.

One of the returnee Modu Umaru who came from Ondo State said, Dikwa has returned back to her former glory; a town free of oppressive and violence. Modu also said, he is going back to Ondo to bring his properties. He thanked the Commander for receiving them and he promised, they will abide by the rules guiding Dikwa and Borno State.

I think military leaders should really work on their propaganda, they seems to be very poor at it.
Just yesterday or so, i read about how these guys are now defeated, well, someone needs to know the definition of a defeat.
Defeated enemy don't carry out raids in towns. I find this embarrassing for the military, stop saying they are defeated.
Use better propaganda tools. I'm no expert, but you could start by showing on live tv how those who surrendered are being treated, show them on live tv cleaned up, shaven,wearing clean clothes, eating, and receiving medical treatment etc, those still fighting might perhaps have a change of heart seeing that the people they are hell bent on killing don't wanna be their enemy. ( if they have tv in those hideouts that is, or a pimped out hp laptop with internet jk
Like i said, I'm not expert lol, so don't jump on my post and call me crazy. I'm simply suggesting a more effective propaganda, it helps.

Just in


FLASH: Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the Boko Haram terror group released a new video where he threatened more violence in the region, insisting that his men are still in Sambisa, if not, "where are the police wives that are being arrested by us"

jakeporeshenko:

Eventually.... nobody in this world, not even a rebel group gets 2 fighter jets, I think we are following the Indonesian model of slowly building up fighter fleet.

Very bad for a country fighting a deadly insurgency.

NAF AIRLIFTS RESCUED HOSTAGES FROM SAMBISA FOREST, PROVIDES MEDICAL TREATMENT

Following concerted efforts by air and ground elements against Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) in the Sambisa Forest, which led to the capture of Camp Zairo, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has airlifted rescued hostages who had been in the captivity of the BHTs. The rescued hostages, including the aged, women as well as children, were airlifted to the 105 Composite Group, Maiduguri by the NAF Agusta 109 helicopter. At the NAF Base in Maiduguri, the NAF Medical Team, which was on standby, conducted preliminary medical checks on the rescued hostages and also provided them with medical treatment prior to the process of integrating them into the larger society. Furthermore, the rescued hostages, who were all looking tired and malnourished after the period of captivity, were fed by the NAF.

The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, has directed that those with serious medical cases be immediately placed on admission to ensure they were adequately cared for. This is in furtherance of the NAF’s resolute efforts at winning the ‘hearts and minds’ of the locals, as part of an overall campaign strategy. It would be recalled that the NAF, under its current leadership, has been rendering humanitarian services to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the North East and other parts of the country as part of its corporate social responsibility. So far, over 300, 000 IDPs have benefited from NAF’s medical outreach programmes, which spread across the entire country. The NAF would continue to airlift the rescued hostages and provide them with the needed initial succour.
