okay, this is epic

So taking Zakah and posturing towards Kafr Zita was the ruse to weaken the defense at Tell Sakhr and al-Ha...Hobait.
Since they're taking Hobait, the only logical move afterwards is that they're aiming for Khan Sheikhoun and creating a kotel, otherwise, why bother?

wow sceintist professor dr dr doofenschmirtz over here with the unique insight

>The Taliban do not necessarily read meters per se, but levy what they estimate is fair and issue a payment receipt similar in appearance to the one provided by the state electricity company. The Taliban have also attacked towers in government-controlled areas to coerce the state electricity company to restore power where it has been cut off. According to one Breshna employee, ‘they threaten us to get us to fix or extend coverage, and if we don’t do it quickly they blow something up. Then we have two problems to
fix instead of one. So usually we try to meet their demands promptly’.77 One (rather extreme) example is attacks on electricity infrastructure in Baghlan, the site of a major electricity tower that links power supplies from Tajikistan and Uzbekistan to Kabul and four other provinces. When power has been cut to Taliban areas of Baghlan and Kunduz, as it was most recently in the spring of 2018, the Taliban have attacked the tower and disrupted power to the capital, capturing news headlines and reminding people how far their reach extends.78 According to another Breshna official, ‘the Taliban have responsibility over everything in their areas, and our people, the mechanics and engineers, are only working with their permission’.79
https://www.odi.org/sites/odi.org.uk/files/resource-documents/12269.pdf

Interesting. This may explain the power outages in Maymana.

>>236089
This study challenges prevailing notions of control, clearly illustrating that the Taliban do not have to
take territory to control it. Following the brief period
in 2015–16 when the Taliban appeared to focus on capturing cities and grabbing headlines, their strategy has focused on creeping influence. They have already made the point that they have the military capacity to take some cities, but dramatic sieges are labour- and resource- intensive, and urban centres cannot be held once taken. Military operations of this nature also cause panic and mass exodus, making it more difficult for the Taliban
to retain control and restore order. Aid agencies and businesses withdraw and trade slows down, reducing the potential Taliban tax base and angering civilians.

Arguably, there is no need to capture a city if atmospheric coercion, punctuated by occasional violence, is enough to ensure the population submits to Taliban authority. The critical point, and one which is often missed in analyses of Taliban control, is that governance does not come after the capture of territory, but precedes it. Coercion, coupled with the more popular aspects of Taliban governance such as justice, softens the ground. Taliban governance does not supplant the Afghan government but co-opts and augments it, resulting in a hybrid service delivery arrangement. Even in Kunduz
City, which is ostensibly under government control, the author saw Taliban letters pasted up in the central chowk (bazaar), was shown receipts for Taliban tax payments and saw the results of the Taliban’s monitoring and regulation of classes in private universities (i.e. curtains placed across rooms to enforce gender segregation, objectionable pages ripped out of textbooks). In districts that NATO classifies as contested or under government control, the district centre is all that remains of a government presence, and even this is extremely limited. District governors, judges and other state officials may reside elsewhere for their own safety, and those who remain do so at the discretion of the local Taliban. The Afghan national security forces appear to have struck tacit deals with the Taliban in many districts, in effect unofficial mini-détentes. It is not uncommon for checkpoints to be manned by government police or soldiers until around
4 p.m., when they retreat and the Taliban assume their positions until the following morning. The fact that the Taliban collect taxes far beyond the borders of areas in which they have territorial dominance further underscores the need to rethink what constitutes Taliban control (Mansfield, 2017).

For the Taliban, control of people – rather than control of territory or popular support – is the priority. They seek to control the population, mainly to prevent people from informing upon them or acting against them. They use governance to keep the population at least marginally satisfied, and this, in combination with their coercive power, helps secure the population in areas under their influence or control. As such, the provision of public goods and strict regulations on personal behaviour are driven by ideology, but are also designed to control the population. The Taliban use outright violence against those they perceive as a threat, which in turn sends a message to the rest of the civilian population about what happens to those who might act against them. As Hirose et al. find in their study of Taliban targeting, the Taliban exhibit ‘an impressive, if imperfect, ability to monitor civilian attitudes, one that is likely more sophisticated and extensive than ISAF’s efforts’ (Hirose et al., 2017). Indeed, this Taliban strategy has been far more effective than
the other side’s efforts to win the war through capturing Afghan ‘hearts and minds’.

This is reflected in the ways in which civilians understand ‘support’. Most civilians interviewed were either confused by or outright hostile to questions regarding whether they support the Taliban or the government. Kalyvas, writing more generally about
civil wars, suggests that ‘most “ordinary” people appear
to display a combination of weak preferences and opportunism, both of which are subject to survival considerations’ (Kalyvas, 2006: 103). A more accurate observation might be that ordinary Afghans feel they
have very little choice in the matter; they tend to be conservative, basing most of their decisions on what
they believe will enhance their chances of survival. At
the same time, however, the Taliban must also, at least to some degree, prioritise the real-world concerns of their constituents, to prevent the widespread dissatisfaction that they fear would lead civilians to inform upon them. Their ideology has had to be reconfigured to fit these demands. One former official explained that ‘they know now that they have the support of the people. They cannot go against the will of the people because they need civilian support, so they have to change some of their ideas’.81 Such arrangements between insurgents and civilians
are based on mutual yet unequal exchange and geared towards cementing ‘an informal social contract that can render an insurgent government a legitimate authority, thereby bolstering its position in its competition with the incumbent state’ (Mampilly, 2011: 52). Insurgent governance, in other words, is not government for government’s sake. It is another means of waging war.

Still no reports on Hobait.

Yusha and his military source to me claims there wasn't any army activity in the Zarzur area.

>Seems like a wait-for-the-other-fronts front anyway

Hmm, any pics of Ruski SSOs or TOS-1 or whatever in Latakia from last 2-3 months? Haven't seen any, really.
>Disappointing 4th can't advance on their own anymore.
Eh, with Rafi's brother from Liwa al-Quds being in prison for ISIS bussiness running I think anything is possible. Maybe Maher is inter-fighting with mkhabarat al-jawyia and has Suheil&friends on his ass? Maybe Bashar doesn't like him, maybe Ruskies don't really want to help the 4th with air support? Dozens of reasons.

>how's that affecting Pakistan in any way? from what i understand, it's in pakistan's favor because now they appear more favorably compared to india's stance on kashmir

It does look as if things are in favor of Pakistan but only in appearance. As of yet it hasn't resulted in any diplomatic success.

The UN released their usual (((deep concern))) statement regarding the issue that both sides should refrain from escalation and called on all parties to refrain from taking steps that could affect the status of Jammu and Kashmir[1](even though the Indians did just that). The Saudis[2] and the Americans[3] also expressed similar sentiments. The outliers here were Turkey and UAE. Erdogan had a telephonic conversation with Imran Khan and also expressed concern over the recent developments but assured support to backing Pakistan's stance[4]. While UAE similar to others also called for talks[5] but its ambassador to India termed the event an internal matter and backed India's manouver[5a]. China does seem pissed with this development[6] as I said earlier[ >>235748 ] they claim Ladakh part of Jammu & Kashmir to be their territory. Though how this will develop into concrete steps remains to be seen.

Some government officials in Pakistan even had the bright idea to threaten to disrupt the Afghan peace process in order to get the Americans to pressure the Indians(Reportedly they relented from further pursuing this course of action). Either they failed to realize or went on ahead despite knowing that it is because of India's Afghan strategy completely failing[7] and being effectively sidelined by Pakistan in the peace process[7a] is one of the reasons that they decided to abrogate the autonomous status of their controlled part of Jammu and Kashmir for which they were planing to do for sometime now(Trumps remarks about willing to mediate the Kashmir issue while meeting Imran Khan, which caught him by surprise[8], in Washington seems to have pushed the Indians to carry out their plans earlier then they wanted to). The Indians fear that should peace be achieved in Afghanistan on Pakistan's terms, the Pakistanis will shift their attention towards the eastern front and really turn up the heat in Kashmir and they are absolutely correct. So it is imperative for Pakistan that the talks continue without any problems. Also the Americans are already fucking over the Indians by negotiating a withdrawal* while barely giving a second thought to their concerns in Afghanistan I do not think the US is willing to fuck them over on the Kashmir issue as well if they ever hope to carry out their strategy to contain China in which India plays a central part. Even the Afghan Taliban released a statement essentially saying don't drag us into this shit[9].

Though it has to be mentioned that the Indians might not be under any severe diplomatic pressure yet but things are not looking good for them as well. By arresting the Kashmiri leaders who were willing to work with the Indian government and ordering curfews and total communications blackouts they are alienating the locals even those that were not hostile to the government[10]. News reports have surfaced indicating that large protests took place yesterday in there[11, 11a]. Add in the fact that the insurgency in recent years has been increasingly becoming localized and the growing religious tensions in India this can easily exacerbate the situation.

So we shall see how all of this plays out.

>Russian choppers are relentless in northeastern Latakia. Much of the Syrian Army’s attack in Kabani is Russian choppers spotting jihadists and striking them.
Haven't seen Angels of Death deployed in a long time. I think last time was hunting IS in the deserts.

Nice. They hold the high ground which means for the first time the SAA have a good chance of taking the city innit?

>>237329
It's less of a city and more a village, but that's the gist of it yeah.

>>237334
SAA's view at Kabani right about now

>On Monday morning, opposition activists reported that a large Turkish military convoy was traveling through the town of Ma’arat Al-Nu’man and making their way to the observation post in the northern Hama town of Morek.

Could be additional hands to dismantle the post, who knows.

smart, you'd think modern militaries would have transitioned to remote controlled tanks

>high profile threadlet overbuilt APC
>doesn't perform well
imagine my sock
the point of these is to make them easy to replace and low profile
you don't build a drone for the same goals as a tank

Rebel media outlets are saying Iranian militias and Hezbollah are leading the charge east of Khan Sheikhoun, seems mostly like desperate damage control.

>>237391
>the point of these is to make them easy to replace and low profile
I agree, but is low profile a real point or just common sense?

>>237394
> but is low profile a real point or just common sense?
StuGs in the normandy campaign utterly BTFO'd amerimutt tanks because they used the bocage landscape to stay out of sight and pop out of unexpected places where they can't be seen by enemy tank crews in the distance
the only place where low profile might not be useful is in purely flat territory like a desert (ie north african campaign of WW2)

no way this is legit. like how the fuck would Tabqa either manage to organize itself to leave the SDF nor would the SDF (overlords) allow this.
maybe cool

>>237410
Oh shit it's in Raqqa, just noticed.
Noice. Hope more areas will drop the eternal kurdoids.

Serbian special forces, Iranian militias, you can tell the jihadis are losing big time.

Reconciliation =/= SDF will leave
