Iran and their Shia militias are the big boots on the ground player here. Russia is just the air power. Yet you don’t mention Iran. Are you ashamed to support Death to America Iran?

The Kurds are the ones cutting off Aleppo from Turkey. So you are either ignorant or a liar.

Helped by Russian warplanes, Kurds advance in northern Aleppo

Under the cover of the Russian airstrikes, Kurdish fighters affiliate with the Kurdish Democratic Union Party gained control of a number of villages and neighbourhoods north of Aleppo over the past few days, Syrian opposition sources told the Anadolu Agency yesterday. Senior opposition leader Murad Abu-Ibrahim Al-Taweel from the Syrian town of Azaz told Anadolu that the Kurdish units “exploited the involvement of the opposition in the battles with the regime and attacked its strategic bases near Azaz and controlled” a number of villages and towns. Al-Taweel reiterated that the Kurdish attacks “were covered by the daily Russian strikes on the opposition bases in Azaz,” noting that these forces turned to Menagh Military Airport, seven kilometres south, aiming to control it. “Clashes are going on currently around the airport,” he said.
