ISIS in south Syria
You said that you well speak the Arabic. So I ask you translate this article to video which is provide editor Alhanuty. Here is an article that contains this videoAl Mayadeen Because I tried to translate this article and no find in article no one confirmation that ISIS now controlled some villages in the Al Suwayda province. Hanibal911 (talk) 10:05, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright man sure! First they said that Beit Jinn is a logistical hub for Jabhat Al Nusra since it's located only 6km away from Sheba'a in Lebanon. Then they said Jabhat Al Nusra transferred alot of its troops from Daraa' countryside to Beer Qasab region, a region that connects northern Daraa to northern Suweida to Rif Dimashq. But then ISIS also transferred some of its troops from the desert to the Beer Qasab region because this allows ISIS to access the Daraa' province. There, ISIS clashed with Islam Army (Jaysh Al Islam since Jaysh in Arabic = Army) and took over Beer Qasab after a pact with Jabhat Al Nusra allowing Nusra's retreat. Jabhat Al Nusra in the southern front is composed of: tribal Bedouin fighters, Jordanian salafists and Saudi fighters. Those fighters came to the region retreating for the Eastern provinces (I think they mean Deir l Zor and Raqqa where Nusra lost to ISIS and retreated). Their leader is Abou Maria Al Kahtani. Then they said that Jabhat Al Nusra's main goal is accessing Lebanon using another front 30km far from Al Masnaa' crossing.

Well i understand Arabic Also.Alhanuty (talk) 02:37, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

I Need your help!
I remember you said that you are good understand Arabic. So maybe you can help me in this situation.here Because editor DuckZz noted the town Kafr Nabudah under control by rebels because he said that in video from Al Jazeera said Al Nusra left this town. I would be grateful for your help! Hanibal911 (talk) 22:26, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright man anytime my friend! The report states that AL Nusra has been sending daily convoys to storm the strongholds and headquarters of some moderate rebel factions. This is due to the changing situation on the ground because 1 month ago, clashes occurred between the SRF and Al Nusra where the latter (Nusra) won. This victory paved the way for Al Nusra to conquer more areas peacefully: rebel factions started retreating from the areas to where the Nusra convoys are heading. (So basically the rebels are retreating whenever they see an incoming Nusra convoy). That especially happened in Rif Idlib (southern rural Idlib) and Rif Hama (northern rural Hama) where Al Nusra controlled large parts there. Interview with Nusra fighter: we now control areas in Rif Khan SHeykhoun, Jabal Al Zawya, Rif Maarat Al Numan and many others. The rest of the report reveals why Al Nusra attacked the SRF corruption and abuse etc.
 * So I think the editor misunderstood the "retreating" part. The article said that the rebels retreated peacefully whenever Nusra convoys showed up. The report doesn't mention ANY Nusra retreats nor any Nusra defeats. And the entire report doesn't mention Kafr Nabudah. ChrissCh94 (talk) 22:45, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * You can translate for me this text from the pro opposition source because i want know what it says.here Because I found it in the discussion in which reported that Shaatat tribes joined army in Deir-ez Zor military base to fight against Islamic State.here Hanibal911 (talk) 14:07, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Text comes from pro-opp page saying: Regime forces paraded in Al Wadi street buses and pickup trucks filled with 150 new fighters screaming Allahu Akbar (tribal fighters it seems) who decided to join the regime forces. They were airlifted from Tadmur (Palmyra) towards Deir El Zoor airport and are now heading towards Al Qussour area to fight ISIS. ChrissCh94 (talk) 15:21, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Hasakah
You can translate data from SOHR and which villages army taken in Hasakah after clashes with ISIS. SOHR said محافظة الحسكة – المرصد السوري لحقوق الإنسان:: تعرضت مناطق في ريفي الحسكة الجنوبي والغربي لقصف من قبل قوات النظام، وسط تقدم لقوات النظام في الريف الغربي وسيطرته على قريتي قبر عامر وطوق الملح ومنطقة المشتل، عقب اشتباكات مع تنظيم “الدولة الإسلامية” التي انسحبت إلى منطقة مفرق صدّيق. SOHR Hanibal911 (talk) 17:36, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright: Areas in Southern and Western Rif Hasakah were bombed by regime forces, amid advancements of the regime forces in the western countryside where they (regime forces) have established control over Qaber Amer and Tawk Al Meleh and the Machtal area following clashes with ISIS organization which has retreated to the Mafraq Seddiq area. ChrissCh94 (talk) 23:17, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
 * You can help me find those villages about which SOHR said. I tried to find other sources on the situation in the area but only found the pro government sources. Pro government source Al Masdar said about villages(Ma’assoum, Qaraat, Al-Hanish, Al-‘Aweena, Ma’arouf, Al-Taba, and Nisaraat) Also a few days ago another pro government source reported about villages (Al-Siyyaha and Touq Al-Malah in west Al-Hasakah).here Hanibal911 (talk) 15:29, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes sure, Touq Al-Malah is pronounced the same way Tawk Al Meleh is so that's a confirmation. The rest I will try to locate them.
 * That's Tall Maarouf: http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=36.887310&lon=41.400604&z=11&m=b&show=/25894337/Tall-Ma-ruf&search=%D9%85%D8%B9%D8%B5%D9%88%D9%85

 * The rest I couldn't find any ChrissCh94 (talk) 21:32, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Pro opposition source also reported that Syrian Army took control of villages of Masoom, Hanash, Uwaina, Hajj Hasan, Tappa, Marouf, and Nasrat (south of Hasakah city) and installed several checkpoints in the area.here Hanibal911 (talk) 13:43, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Maar Hitat
Hey ChrissCh94, apropos with the above barnstar, would you translate the source provided for this edit?
 * Sure man. It says: Regime forces have fled MaarHitat with 10 tanks after hiding in the caves and groves nearby. They fled to Eastern Sahyan and Robo' Al Jour south of Babulin while heavy shelling from regime forces positioned in Morek covered their retreat. The retreating soldiers/vehicles were ambushed twice by Jabhat Al Nusra and Ahrar Al Sham leading to 2 destroyed tanks and many deaths/injuries among regime forces. 42 air raids occurred on the Wadi El Deif area, 29 were plane raids while the 13 others were barrel bombs dropped by helicopters, no info on casualties.

Sawran / Suran, Aleppo Province
If you have time to kill, would you mind poking around for up to date sources verifying the status of the city of Sawran? Here is the original edit taking it from lime to black, and here is the last time it was touched - note the source said fighting was to the East of the town, which would imply that it's rebel held. Pro-op desyracuse still shows it rebel held. Just looking for a definitive source for 100% confirmation one way or the other, and hoping a native Arabic speaker might understand/access information that I cannot! Cheers! Boredwhytekid (talk) 21:28, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure mate: Al Anadol (Turkish so anti-regime, might be pro-isis or pro-rebels) says that the frontline is located between the farmlands of Dabek, Ehtimalat and Zahiryyah all controlled by ISIS and the farmlands of Sawran controlled by the rebels (IF/FSA): http://www.aa.com.tr/ar/news/407250
 * This pro-rebel site says ISIS attacked Sawran on 6-12-2014: http://www.twitt-book.com/%D9%85%D8%B9%D8%A7%D8%B1%D9%83-%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%89-%D8%AC%D8%A8%D9%87%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8%D8%B1%D9%8A%D8%AC-%D9%88-%D8%AD%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%A8%D8%AD%D9%84%D8%A8-%D9%88-%D8%AF/
 * This source, I guess pro-opp, says that ISIS convoys are heading towards Sawran and Dalha, both controlled by the Islamic Front. http://arabi21.com/Story/793706
 * All pro-regime sources only mentioned clashes around Sawran but without explicitly saying who controls it.
 * My guess is that Sawran is rebel-held.

Cheers Boredwhytekid! ChrissCh94 (talk) 21:50, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

I Need your help!
You can help me translate this article. This is an article about the situation in Iraqi city Mosul.Al Arabiya Hanibal911 (talk) 21:01, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Sure man. It says: After violent battles, Iraqi forces managed to impose a siege on Mosul city and thus forcing the extremists to flee south towards Al-Anbar province while clashes continued in Sinjar and Biji. Other field events include advances by extremists in Al-Anbar province while clashes continued in Sinjar and Biji accompanied by Coalition Bombardment on the extremists' positions. Tribal sources have announced that the formation of a National Guard is the only way to face the extremists in Al-Anbar while hinting that the tribesmen are prepared to form the core of such a force. Erbil recently hosted a Sunni Tribe Conference with the blessing of the unity government whose representatives have attended it in order to discuss the arming and training of volunteers and the coordination with the fighting forces on the ground while insisting that the National Guard is for all the Iraqi people. In Baghdad, the prime minister Haidar al Abadi assured the Nineva representatives and its MP's that the government is willing to work on a draft of the National Guard Law and how to legalize it in order to form a new law protecting the different provinces away from sectarianism. In the context of International Cooperation with Iraq against terror, Jordan announced providing great help/support to the Sunni tribes fighting the extremists. That includes providing them with training that was only reserved to Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police. ChrissCh94 (talk) 22:57, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

 * That is a BIG BIG text: It says that ever since Al-Nusra began its recent operations in Northern Syria, by attacking Al-Mastuma Camp and the Gov-Building in Idlib city, as well as the operations in Nubl-Zahraa and Wadi Al Dayf, many rebel factions tried to impede and stop those operations using many ways such as setting up checkpoints and arresting Nusra fighters. Even the medical staff in Urum al Kubrah were kidnapped and their fate is still unknown. Yet they accuse Al Nusra of being agents, of not fighting the Nusayri regime, of abandoning fronts. Yet Al-Nusra never let down a front where it could fight the Nusayris, from Handarat to Mlah to Karm Al Tarrab street to the waterpump in Sulayman AL Halabi to Aziza village to Bustan Al Qasr to Ramousa to Soran Ezaz to Nubl Zahraa, all those battles are witness to the willingness of Al Nusra to defend Aleppo and its citizens. Yet yesterday we receive a statement from the American-funded and the American-supplied Hazm movement, accusing Al-Nusra of abandoning the Handarat front, of lying to recruit men and of harassing Hazm fighters. Well we remind Hazm than Al Nusra has the most of its fighters in Al-Mlah where it has 25 martyrs and an equal number of injuries. And the statement did not mention the aggression of Hazm on Nusra fighters in Idlib and Aleppo nor did it mention the fact that Nusra did not take military action against Hazm to preserve Muslim blood and due to the urgency of the Aleppo front because it put all its weight against the Nusayri regime to prevent it from encircling thousands of Muslim civilians/fighters. Nusra did many diversion attacks on Nubl-Zahraa to prevent this from happening yet those militias who have Western Agendas impeded our work. Therefore Al Nusra now announces that it will not forget the harassment of the medical staff, nor the killing of the brothers in Brigade 46, nor the takeovers of Nusra's HQ/vehicles/bomb factories in Sheikh Suleiman. We will not stop our war against Nusayris nor our effort to prevent the siege of Aleppo. Noone can stop us, not DiMAstura nor the western agents. ChrissCh94 (talk) 11:47, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
 * You can explain to me what is said in this video.here Hanibal911 (talk) 15:55, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Sure man Hanibal911. It says that the rebels have captured the old Daraa'-Damascus road after fully capturing Sheikh Miskin and the Battalion 60 in Sehaylyah and Dili. This road was used by regime forces to send reinforcements to its troops in Brigade 82 and the town of Sheikh Miskin. But the fierce battles ended with the rebels controlling those areas and the essential supply road that could be used by the rebels to launch attacks on the 9th Division and regime troops in Al Sanamayn.

Rebel factions have targeted the officer housing units and other areas in Al Sanamein using rockets with no info on casualties. Areas in Daraa al Balad have been shelled by regime forces while 8 rebels were killed due to an ambush by regime forces near Mhajjah in Daraa Countryside. Deir Al Adas is witnessing clashes between regime forces and Hezbollah vs rebel and Islamist factions while regime forces managed to get inside the town then were forced to retreat.

Can you give your opinion on this.here. Lindi29 (talk) 15:39, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

No clue
Hey man, i see you understand arabic ? Can you try to translate what he's saying in his statement, at least some important parts, what's that all about. Thanks. DuckZz (talk) 10:14, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes sure man. He said he wants to form a 60K fighting force consisting of a regular army, well trained and unified, respecting all international protocols/law. That's the only way to bring down the regime. He then called all armed factions who want to fight the regime, to communicate with the ministry of defense to form this army. They will accept ALL MODERATE SYRIANS. He then criticized the factions working for foreign agendas. The decision to form this army and to bring down the regime is strictly Syrian. He then precised that coordination will be maintained with the factions who won't join the regular free army. Each front will have its proper meetings to discuss the required steps and execution. The number of 60K already has a nucleus of 40k FSA fighters. The formation of this army will guarantee foreign support and legitimacy. Joining the ministry of defense will have a financial benefit for all sides as well such as salaries, transport, communication material etc. This however will be conditioned by several factors including battle efficiency. Forming this army will guarantee respect and protection from the International Law (POW's etc.) Armed fighters should never intervene in political aspects but they will shape the political solution and outcome of the war. ChrissCh94 (talk) 14:13, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Good job, thanks. Does that mean he wants to create an army consisting of soldiers who are already inside Syria and fighting, or does he want to create and import 60k new soldiers into Syria from Turkey or whatever ? DuckZz (talk) 11:24, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
 * No he said that the nucleus, the core of the 60K fighting force is already engaged in Syria on multiple fronts. However forming this army will require external training and logistic assistance therefore trips to/from Turkey. They will have to undergo interviews/interrogations outside Syria as well.

Here source reported that Syrian troops has taking control of 5 villages (Abu Saad / Khchwet / Aldaudih / sera / Rhqra) to South East of Hasakah from ISIS.herehere Also SOHR reported that Syrian troops after clashes against ISIS take control at least two villages.SOHR So this means that SOHR indirectly confirmed this data and we can use this data.

 * Fighters from many factions attacked (after tunnel bombing) many regime positions including the Talae' camp, the Qarmid camp, and the numerous CP's west of Ariha. The attack was concentrated on the Arbaen Mount. The rebels used traditional arms including modified GRAD rockets and new Jahim canons and FIL rockets.

 * It's a pro-opp source not pro-Isis. It says that regime forces bombarded Jouwwalah and Khwaytilah to help the YPG storm the area. Raids also occurred in Rif Tal Tamr, and in AL Jisi near Tall Hamis as well as Tall Shmiram (ISIS-held) near Tall Tamr. Clashes continued between YPG and ISIS near Tal Tamr, after ISIS took control of Tal Shmiran (south of Tall Tamr) and Tal Shamya and Aghibish (both west of Tall Tamr) and Tuweina.
 * 14 ISIS dead, 5 injured, 56 YPG dead, 4 Saturo dead, and 40 YPG POWs and 37 bodies captured.
 * South of Qamishli: YPG with Karama army and SAA/Peshmerga support have controlled Al Shara, ABou Jari, Wael AL Haris, Rabia, Tamim. Salima and KHouza'a are contested. Tal Mushrif and BirQassem were stormed and pillaged by the Peshmerga. ChrissCh94 (talk) 11:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Brigade 13 helping a Syrian soldier defect from Morek. The defected soldier says their CP has 1 tank, 14.5mm cannon, 30 soldiers with fixed positions and 25 on patrol. He says that Hezbollah intervened and some soldiers abused. He then incites other SAA soldiers to defect. ChrissCh94 (talk) 19:25, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

ChrissCh94 Interesting but hard to belive. The title says defected soldier, but he looks like a captured soldier. Why the hell would he put his hands like that, i mean try to put your hands together behind your back, they will go on your ass. But i don't know, he looks weird and uncomfortable as fuck DuckZz (talk) 20:12, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

 * I think that Leith has made a mistake concerning Nabe'El Murr, it overlooks Kessab thus allowing fire control over the crossing. I don't know about the other villages, but I'm 100% positive that Nabe' El Murr is regime held. We never heard of any rebel takeover. ChrissCh94 (talk) 17:18, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

the rebels recaptured nab al mur back in december 2014.Alhanuty (talk) 17:28, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I barely believe that since rebel sources denied taking Nabe' El Mur but instead captured points surrounding it. The NDF not so long ago released a video showing their forces stationed there monitoring the Turkish border. I'm with Hanibal911 on this one. I don't think we should change a frontline that hasn't been active for a few months. Let's worry about the more active ones at the moment. ChrissCh94 (talk) 17:39, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Pro-opp source for a pro-opp advance? Here are the pro-opp sources for THIS WEEK's regime advances in Northern Latakia: SAA has captured the Mahmiyya hill and other positions such as Tall Snan in Jabal Zahya in an attack launched FROM Nabe' EL Murr per SOHR and AL Jazeera  and  and
 * Rebels meanwhile shelled regime positions in Nabe' El Murr via pro-opp sources like SOHR ChrissCh94 (talk) 18:13, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * So Hanibal911 what you should do is revert the changes made and add the REGIME advances in Northern Latakia that were confirmed by PRO-OPP sources. ChrissCh94 (talk) 18:16, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

leith confirmed it.Alhanuty (talk) 19:02, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Lol that's your answer? Enough with your pro-rebel bias. I showed you 5-6 pro-opp sources and you show up with Leith? Please. ChrissCh94 (talk) 19:09, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

all your sources talk about Nabaa Al-Saker,which leith mentions as generally rebel-held,this is not the issue,the main issue is that the entire Latakia map from Ghaman in the south until Nabaa Al-Saker and Sooda from the west until Salma in the east came out to be erroneous,and leith confirmed it in his article and his tweets,the entire area is rebel-held,but a pro-assad vandal back in 2014 vandalize the map and turned all the green dots in the area to red,and it went on unnoticed,that is the issue and we have realized that today.Alhanuty (talk) 19:46, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Nabe' El Sakher is in Quneitra. Anyways, I said I don't know anything about the villages Leith mentioned except for Nabe' El Murr which is regime held afaik. I provided enough rebel sources to prove not only that, but to also prove regime advances in the area. As for the remaining villages like Ghammam, I know nothing. But for me all that matters is that Nabe' EL Murr stays regime held. ChrissCh94 (talk) 19:58, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * We have to show on the map the successes of Army which confirmed data from sources which you provide. Hanibal911 (talk) 20:14, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

I mean Nabaa Al-Mur sorry about that,he mentions that it is generally rebel-held,for the Ghamam and other villages leith,proved it to be rebel-held,and it was originally rebel-held,Hannibal,until a regime vandal came and changed all these villages to red,with leith confirmation about these villages,it is rebel-held.Alhanuty (talk) 20:17, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree about Ghammam, it should be rebel-held. But Nabe'El Murr is in NO WAY rebel-held since this would mean shelling and clashes near Kessab and its border crossing. Another argument in favor of my remark is that Jabal al Nisr is SAA-held. If you check Wikimapia or Google Earth, you'll see that it easily covers all of Nabe'El Murr making any rebel presence there a sitting duck and easily targetable. But again Ghammam yes it should be changed to rebel-held but revert Nabe'El Murr to SAA-held. And concerning the other villages Leith mentioned, I have no info about them.

Not neutral sources
I think that all the same, we need to raise the issue about neutrality SOHR because he becomes more biased. He calls the Syrian army as Regime forces or regime troops and when he calls as "martyrs" rebels which died in clashes against Syrian troops and and many times just publishes to biased reports. Also we know that the Chief of SOHR opposes Syrian government and support Syrian opposition and we cant use this source for displayed success of rebels if this data not confirm more reliable and neutral sources. I am against the use of pro-government sources for displayed success of troops but also against the use pro opposition sources for displayed success of rebels. And SOHR for now not is as neutral source he clearly support rebels and their allies. We call all sources as the pro government if source called that rebels it is a terrorists and I agree with this. But we also need called all sources as pro opposition if they called Syrian troops as regime or Assad troops. Also sometimes source openly opposes the Syrian army calling them as murderers. And in Wikipedia clearly indicated that the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) founded in May 2006 is an information office opposed to the Government of Syria.[And in Wikipedia clearly indicated that the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) founded in May 2006 is an information office opposed to the Government of Syria. here] Hanibal911 (talk) 11:15, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
