Flight path of a plane that took off from Damascus shorty after news broke that Assad left the city towards unknown destination, which might have been Latakia on Syrian coast which is still under SAA control as of now. Terrain in place where flightradar stopped tracking that plane isn’t especially suited for emergency landing
Shortly after crash Syrian Army Command informs officers about fall of the regime https://xcancel.com/Alhadath_Brk/status/1865587913817305454#m
update: it’s not spoofed transponder data or controlled landing, locals reported plane crash in the area. rumors so far, but dawn will break soon in Syria and we’ll know https://xcancel.com/Schizointel/status/1865593800678130081#m
clarification: there’s some chance that Assad went out of Damascus before on other, private jet, so it’s not sure and it’s all conjecture on unproven information
update 2: there’s a claim by Russian media that Assad is in Moscow, so he would have to flee on some earlier plane, but no photos as of now. Still, looked mildly credible at the time
yeah this also
he was done either way as damascus was handed over few hours ago
Yea, it’s amazing how fast this can go down. Been F5ing Live UA map every few hours the last few days and almost every time there were notable changes.
This also cements Russia’s loss of their only notable Mediterranean port.
port and airbase now. and SAM site if it ends up being the cause
that would be dumbest and highest profile friendly fire ever. are we sure that Girkin wasn’t exiled to Syria?
