2017-10-25
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Islamic State (ISIS) recently carried out a drone attack on a Syrian Arab Army (SAA) ammo depot in the Deir Ezzor Governorate’s western countryside.

As a result of the drone attack, the Islamic State managed to destroy the entire Syrian Army ammo storage that was located at the municipal football stadium in Deir Ezzor’s Panorama area.

Video footage of the Islamic State was released by the terrorist group’s official media wing on Tuesday

#4  A quick write-up at Funker530 dated July 2016 and in the article another link covering drone use in that theatre.

#3  They have been weaponizing drones for a couple years now, and are getting good at using them for recon, propaganda, and attack missions. Similar learning curve they had with the VBIED, and is a concern.

Video only really suggests poor munitions storage, but say for less than $500 an operative with a fairly concealable weapon has with little risk to himself destroyed a meterball's stadium worth of munitions.

#2  They've gone to drones now? I thought Mohammadans murdered people up close as the Prophet used to do.
