This is the alleged aftermath.
These people look like they were killed elsewhere and planted here.
Almost no blood or human remains on the ground.


ps view with extreme caution.

Abdi Johnson I don't support any side in this war but don't get me wrong here coz both the saa and fsa are terrorists. Both of these groups kill civilians so don't support any side. This is a proxy war between the U.S. and Russia as far as I'm concerned. Its just people dying, a catastrophe really. Nothing more.

May Allah bring peace to Syria. AAMEEN

The FSA are worser than Bashar Al Assad and his regime. The FSA are Al Khain, traitors of Islam and Ahlul Sunnah Wal Jamaa'a.

Looks like they planted explosives on the road to take them out. If that's the case then someone tipped them off they were going that route ahead of time.

This has to be one of the most successful military ambushes since the 1970s.

It looks like the victims were civilians. The rebels do not move from one place to another in large numbers.

The footage is iffy, but the rebels come in various shades of competancy.
allot of them are inexperienced and untrained and easily fall for something like this.

the question is that the Syrian government having air supremacy should have been doing allot more of this early one,
the defections must have taken a toll on their trained men.

there are too many FSa and rebels walking in the open in large numbers, making them easy targets for cluster bombs from light strike aircraft.
The syrian government is using the wrong equipment, mig-23's are of little use in this case, they would be better off using propeller driven trainers with cluster bombs, even crop dusters will do better than jets.
Helicopters are still effectively used though and are responsible for the majority of rebel casualties.
