(LATE NEWS: US SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM-REPUBLICAN-SOUTH CAROLINA MADE A SURPRISE VISIT TO NORTHERN SYRIA MONDAY TELLING LOCAL JIHADIST-OPPOSITION LEADERS HE WILL URGE PRESIDENT TRUMP TO CONTINUE US MILITARY PRESENCE IN SYRIA) Link to:.....

"Al Jazeera reported that there were explosions in a weapons warehouse belonging to the Syrian Army in #Daraa"

Paul Antonopoulos Pro-Syrian Government Twitter 7/3/2018

"Syrian opposition sources report big explosions on Tuesday at ammunition depots serving Iranian militias fighting for the Assad regime in a region held by Syrian government forces near the Deraa-Damascus highway."

Israeli "DEBKAfile" report 7/3/2018

The propaganda war is certainly on in Syria with the notion of Iranian involvement being broached by the Israeli website "DEBKAfile" after 'big' and 'mysterious' explosions at an ammo dump south of Damascus today.

Russia announced ahead of the current offensive Iranian disengagement from the area and Syria presented a list of only Syrian units participating in the attacks.

Israel uses the notion of Iranian involvement in Syria to justify its persistent military operations there.

Jihadist forces fighting the Syrian government stiffened their resistance around the town of Tafas, northwest of Deraa city. "Moderate" forces there united with an ISIS affiliated group to fight on with Syrian government forces calling in Russian and Syrian air support during the fighting.

"Southfront" reports a slowdown in Syrian military operations while negotiations are going on to get reconciliation agreements for numerous villages and towns around Deraa city.

Reuters quotes Jordanian sources saying that Russian officers are talking with the rebels.

Its also reported that the UN is asking Jordan to take in refugees at its border.

Hackers hit hard at Nextrush when he posted about Lindsey's visit to Syria earlier.

So I will repost this from his blog today.

Strange times when the Israelis are in a de facto alliance with Syrian Sunni Islamist jihadis.

Any time I see Iranian forces, I think kill them all. Their military and leadership deserve to all die after the crap they pulled in Iraq and Afghanistan.
