The fighters have moved east and as of 4 hours ago they secured Tabqa airbase.
“Maybe burn tires at the air intakes?”
Fire up the BBQ! Smoked pork roast or Bacon Explosion, anyone?
Actually, just pump in nitrogen.
Or a nice almond smelling mixture the Germans perfected many years ago...
The dam is at 1.5 meters from maximum capacity. It fills at 2-3 cms per day. It will take about 30-40 days to overflow.
Thank you for the details.
Well, the dam was secured on Thursday. The report suggests that ISIS still had control of the main building with the controls.
The report I posted was put on twitter by a part of SDF effort 8 hours before I posted it.
Do you have more recent information about the main building being taken?
And, where would you get the neutron bombs?
ISIS doesn't know what we have.
I found your source on Twitter, it says he is confirmed BBC reporter.
It was confusing at first, he was repeating what Daesh propaganda had said. But he said power to the gates were restored hour ago.
(and it was 7 hours after his post when I read it)

Thanks for the information, I had not seen him before. Sources I have relied upon for years also concur that there is no immediate crisis with the dam. If the gates are again open, there will be no immediate crisis.

“#Tabqah contact says water services to city also restored, power still patchy Internet cut. He has to go to nearby town for connection.”
So looks like there is no reason to be alarmed.
Literally LOL’d!
We built them.
Burn pigs at the air intakes.
Not my source, but I will check on his tweets, thanks.
Here’s a good one:

Daesh is very good at fake news. I avoid reporting agencies and stay in touch with boots on the ground.
I agree. I generally bounce the article of my friends. That was not available when I posted it. But today I got a report. that put my mind at rest. The facility was damaged by ISIS. There is no alarming danger of a disaster. That almost happened because ISIS was on bull horns scaring people. Many went to high ground before they could be convinced it was not a real disaster coming.
So reality. Care was taken to not alarm the public. There was some damage. There were engineers brought in today to access the situation. There will have to be some repairs, which I suspect surprised no one. The gates are now operational and I heard earlier today that some power was restored to part of the city. No one has released the nature of the damage. I think most of it was to the electrical generation station.
The SDF and our Spec Ops are a good team. I think considering what they faced they have done an excellent job that all should be proud of.
Yes, ISIS is going to end.
