Footage & testimony from #Barisha local about operation on the alleged #Baghdadi compound. Building upon #geolocation work by @ryanmofarrell & @trbrtc, there are indicators in the video (released by @baladinetwork) that it was filmed at site of compound.
The #Baghdadi compound was allegedly here: goo.gl/maps/EPvmjPSTs… on the outskirts of Barisha (باريشا). Initial footage filmed at dawn shows surrounding buildings in a set configuration 👇
Footage of testimony of resident from Barisha (باريشا) was filmed at the site of where #Baghdadi compound once stood. We can tell this because the wreckage of bike and scrap in the footage is consistent in other footage geolocated. (link to video: facebook.com/baladinetwork3…) ImageImageImageImage

#BREAKING: #ISIL's leader, Abubakr al-Baghdadi is killed in #Barisha, Northern #Idlib.It is possible that #Turkey gave info on his hideout in exchange for reducing tensions with #US over military operation in NE #Syria. #US Military sources believe that Turkey was protecting him!
#BREAKING: It is known that the #ISIL's leader, Abubakr al-Baghdadi traveled from the East of #Syria to this village in North of #Syria using #Turkey's territory almost a year ago. He was clearly aided & supported by #Turkish Intelligence Service & the Turkish backed militias!
#BREAKING: The eight helicopters which participated in the operation for kill or capture of #ISIL's terrorist leader were belonging to #USArmy & also its detachment of 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment based in #Erbil Intl airport, N. #Iraq. (Archive video by #USAF)

'Those 3 children are ur respnsblty now.They're his kids [dead man] They stripped them all [Corpses]. I'm told were shot with automatics'
Eyewitness says US troops materialised 'out of nowhere', set up a position and 'questioned one man for nearly an hour'

Reports #ISIS leader Abu Bakr al #Baghdadi may have been killed in #Idlib #Syria shouldn't come as a complete surprise-at least the location

In July, a @UN report warned senior ISIS leaders "are among those who have made their way to the #Idlib area..."
@UN Abu Bakr al #Baghdadi most recent messages: a video from April 29 & an audio message from September 16

But for someone like Baghdadi sending out messages always comes with a risk...
After the release of the audio in September, BrigGen Len Anderson, deputy commander of JTF-Ares, told VOA:
"The more videos that come out gives us, quite honestly, another opportunity to assess, to see what #ISIS leadership is thinking & maybe gather some intelligence from that"

BREAKING - reports of a (US?) helicopter-borne raid on a convoy of Huras al-Din (#AlQaeda in #Syria) leaders traveling near Barisha in #Idlib.

Locals say as many as 6 choppers involved - gave chase to convoy, 2 landed & assaulted vehicles. Possibly took bodies or evidence away.
#pt: Barisha is ~3-4km from the #Turkey border. It's in long-time #AlQaeda territory, spanning between Al-Dana-Sarmada-Salqin.

As I recall, a helicopter-borne raid on AQ in NW #Syria has never happened - this would suggest a very high-level target.
#pt: In more recent years, the Turkistan Islamic Party (#TIP) has probably been the most significant authority in the Barisha region (stretching NE to Jisr al-Shughour).

Unverified reports have claimed 1 #TIP fatality, in what looks like a series of successive clashes. #Idlib

The last sub-thread of this 4th roll is about the destruction of the site of Babisqa.
#ancient #Syria #ruins
The expedition of Butler, in the early XX C., mapped the settlement of Babisqa, located near #Aleppo, and N of Mout #Barisha. The archaeological settlement, dated from the II C. B.C. is very close to the Turkish border.

tinyurl.com/y4kqpvno
Originally Babisqa settlement extended for ±7.75 ha, at the heart of which lied the central square, with a sort of Agora used until the 5th-6th C. AD.
The ruins included the last Byzantine basilica of Syria, St. Sergius.
