Russia destroys FSA's 1st Coastal Division (CIA's favorite pawn)

[MikeWB]

1st Coastal was FSA's best-trained division. They were the pride of Langley. You can read about them here:

The 1st Coastal Division (formerly known as the Brigade of the Chargers)[2] is a Syrian rebel group that is affiliated with the Free Syrian Army and has been vetted by the Friends of Syria Group.

"Friends of Syria Group" is of course a euphemism for "Screw Assad Group" run by USA and Saudis.

Apparently, all of their leadership was killed by a precision guided bunker penetrator thermobaric munition as they were meeting inside of a cave. That's a horrible way to die because vacuum munitions kill you by a powerful pressure wave.

This guy has a bunch of documents on it from the various factions, mostly sending condolences to 1st Coastal:

On twitter, all the wahabis/salafists/jihadis are devastated that their prize group got annihilated in one swoop.

Russian Air Force Destroys the FSA Command in Latakia as the Syrian Army Storms Salma  0

On Monday night, the Russian Air Force surprised the Islamist rebels of the Free Syrian Army's "1st Coastal Brigades" with a multitude of airstrikes over their positions inside Jabal Al-Akrad (Kurdish Mountains), killing three of their highest ranking officers during an intense night raid in this mountainous area of the Latakia Governorate's northeastern countryside.

Among the dead commanders from the Free Syrian Army's 1st Coastal Brigades was their Chief of Staff, Captain Bassel Zimmo – a defector from the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in 2011.

Captain Zimmo was reportedly attending a private meeting with the Free Syrian Army's 1st Coastal Brigades Central Command before the Russian Air Force delivered a powerful assault in the Kurdish Mountains of the Latakia Governorate.

Following the Russian Airstrikes in the Kurdish Mountains, the Syrian Arab Army's Special Forces – in coordination with the National Defense Forces (NDF), the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP), and Muqawama Souri (Syrian Resistance) – carried out a powerful assault inside the city of Tartiyah, striking the Syrian Al-Qaeda group "Jabhat Al-Nusra" at the Kafr Dulbeh-Tartiyah axis.

This assault by the Syrian Armed Forces resulted in the death of over 30 enemy combatants from Jabhat Al-Nusra, including a number of foreigners from Chechnya, Dagestan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Turkey, and Lebanon.

According to a military source in Slunfeh, the Syrian Armed Forces and Islamist rebels are currently engaged in a violent firefight inside both Tartiyah and  Salma – both sides have reportedly suffered heavy casualties as a result of these night battles.
