This "humanitarian ceasefire" is for US diaspora consumption. It will make them feel better, meanwhile war will rage on perhaps worse than before.

Problem is the foreign troops on the ground. But Russia does it in Turkish controlled areas. Perhaps they are doing good recon or perhaps they don't care if they hit Turks and can always blame Assad. Anyway I think it is a good idea to hit PKK with drones regularly in Northern Syria.

My point is also valid, I mean to be personal, not to cause offence but to tailor my answer to you. You have made such a simple analogy: High resistance = High damage. Low/no resistance = no/minimum damage. And apparently the Turks must have faced minimal resistance in Syria, whereas...

I was aware of this road to Vardenis. It wasn't include it in my earlier post because early in the conflict there was reports that this road had been intersected by the Azeris. Perhaps it did happen and the area where it occurred is still being contested. Nevertheless, I think this road is of a...

The French certainly know about resistance. They resisted so much that Paris had to be rebuilt entirely after WWII. :p

The problem is if you look closely, there is a whole line of mountains 3000m+. So even Napoleon would have had difficulty here :). There is little point wasting effort here. The area to the east of these pictures don't have the same topography, so that area has been taken. I don't think that...

Armenians s will kill every last soldier to keep up appearances, but even Sadam started burying his fighter jets at one point to save them from being blown up in their hangars. I suppose we can't expect anything rational from these idiots.

They can dig in but for how long without resupply? And how will they do counter offensive if they don't have any air support, if anything they are pinned in from the air. The only thing that they can do is retreat imo, and in civilian clothes with no weapons would be best. If they dressed up as...

I think that the most important circumstance now will be the targeting of Azeris troops in NK from Armenia (proper). What will be done? How will they retaliate without Armenia using it for evidence of attack on its sovereignty. Perhaps the fighting has to spill over into Armenia in order to...

I think that this area was cleared of Armenians. Armenias must have retreated into Kapan and Goris regions (of Armenia) and then mounted an attack from there. Some sort of hit and retreat which Azeris weren't anticipating. If they left the vehicles it means that they were probably targeted by...

One good thing it seems is that Turks didn't let them encroach further towards the M4. There was some agreement at the time of 6km past the M4, but details were vague. Also there was recent news of a base or bases being set up in south Idlib, so basically these observation post have been...

It seems that the Russians didn't respond to friendships, alliances or partnerships but only brute force. Those 40 or so Turkish soldiers that were martyred in Idlib was the main turning point in relations I think. Turks went to Moscow and got a humiliating response. And the truth is that the...

Thank you! The circular shaded area, which I am supposing is the unconfirmed taken area (or contested area) is quite reasonable. And so far, announcements by Aliyev has not made them change from shaded to blue.

I think the reason why we are not up-to-date in this conflict with the maps, is because the Azeri troops are not posting videos and making selfies every day with their progress (unlike previous conflicts we have been following). So the other day when we saw Irani Azeris recording troops from...

I think it's a very conservative map. I wish someone would post a screenshot of liveumap, it'll probably show similar.

Look even if there is no future land connection, once NK is taken back, there may be a change in relations with Armenia. Then it may be possible to transit via Armenia in the south. A little like Croatias crossing with Bosnia near Neum. It sounds unlikely now but Armenia has more to gain with...

I I think that they want to leave it open for as long as possible for all Armenian civilians to leave. This will make it easy in the long term as you won't have any chance of combatants hiding in the civilian population.

I I don't know if these guys are going to transition to guerrilla warfare. But the thought for Arm troops that they will be caught in a mountainous area with all roads out cut and winter around the corner is enough for anyone to start deserting. And as we have seen, they are poorly equipped...

From Qubatli they will push onto Lachin, then it is game over. Unconditional surrender. And the way things are going, it could be a matter of days.
