Iranian-backed militias install radar system in Syria’s Deir ez-Zor

That’d be Israel, I suspect. In which case the radar will just help them pinpoint their targets. Yay!
[NPASyria] Recently, Iranian-backed militias in al-Mayadin area in Deir ez-Zor countryside, east Syria, have installed a radar system to detect drones and protect its military points from being an aerial target by opponents.

Iranian-backed militias control large swaths of the Deir ez-Zor countryside, where al-Mayadin and al-Bukamal are considered the most areas of destinations by Arab and imported muscle who join the Iranian-backed militias.

A military source of the militias told North Press that it stalled a radar in Mazar Ayn area in the countryside of al-Mayadin, east of Deir ez-Zor.
“Got that, Yossi? The general will be interested.”
“Marked on the map, Sgt. Avi. Tell the boys to film the pretty secondaries — my girlfriend needs a birthday present.”
Areas held by Iranian-backed militias have been often targeted and are accused of launching attacks on the US-led Global Coalition bases eastern Syria.

In late 2021, the factions installed a radar system and operated it in al-Mazare’ area near al-Mayadin and transformed the area to colonies and military barracks.

Prior to that, the factions tested an Iranian-made drone nicknamed "Ababil" which hovered in the skies of al-Rahba castle and Mazar Ayn area south of al-Mayadin.

Over 2017, the number of Iranian-backed members in Syria mounted to 70,000 gunnies distributed on 50 military formations. Currently, they are estimated to be up to 100,000 bad boys, Muhammad Ali Jafari, commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said.
