Yesterday we\u00a0had <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/it-is-hard-to-survive-in-syria-without-a-passport-russian-28th-brigade-in-syria\">an article<\/a> about the 28th brigade from Yekaterinburg, and now\u00a0the Middle East meets new guests, this time from Novosibirsk.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thus, based on the OSINT investigation of the social profile of <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/LqbMp\">Evgeny Luzanov<\/a> (another &#8216;soldier on vacation&#8217; from distant\u00a0Novosibirsk) we have found out\u00a0several interesting facts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. A fresh group <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/9H76I\">photo<\/a> with\u00a0the Syrian landscape and buildings in background\u00a0made on November 10 immediately draws our attention. The same kind of picture <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/it-is-hard-to-survive-in-syria-without-a-passport-russian-28th-brigade-in-syria\">was made by the servicemen from Yekaterinburg<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is the area of the Hama province near the cities of\u00a0Deir Shamil and\u00a0Dimo. Russians deployed a mini-base or stronghold in this some kind\u00a0of a detached villa or a house on the hill.

Yesterday we\u00a0had <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/it-is-hard-to-survive-in-syria-without-a-passport-russian-28th-brigade-in-syria\">an article<\/a> about the 28th brigade from Yekaterinburg, and now\u00a0the Middle East meets new guests, this time from Novosibirsk.\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>Thus, based on the OSINT investigation of the social profile of <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/LqbMp\">Evgeny Luzanov<\/a> (another 'soldier on vacation' from distant\u00a0Novosibirsk) we have found out\u00a0several interesting facts.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n1. A fresh group <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/9H76I\">photo<\/a> with\u00a0the Syrian landscape and buildings in background\u00a0made on November 10 immediately draws our attention. The same kind of picture <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/it-is-hard-to-survive-in-syria-without-a-passport-russian-28th-brigade-in-syria\">was made by the servicemen from Yekaterinburg<\/a>.\r\n\r\nThis is the area of the Hama province near the cities of\u00a0Deir Shamil and\u00a0Dimo. Russians deployed a mini-base or stronghold in this some kind\u00a0of a detached villa or a house on the hill. Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.ru\/maps\/place\/35%C2%B013'45.5%22N+36%C2%B020'49.6%22E\/@35.2288279,36.3473431,376m\/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0\">the coordinates<\/a> and the\u00a0binding to the terrain:\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/213.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15176\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/213.jpg\" alt=\"2\" width=\"899\" height=\"586\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/39.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15177\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/39.jpg\" alt=\"3\" width=\"901\" height=\"596\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n'GAZ' and 'Ural' trucks can be clearly seen in the left. It is also striking that these are new faces, the\u00a0fighters are older.\u00a0We can not exclude the possibility\u00a0that these soldiers have come to replace the ones from Yekaterinburg.\r\n\r\n2. Besides that, Evgeny has a fresh <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/eVrab\">photo<\/a> from\u00a0Hmeimim airbase area (based on the geotag attached), from which they moved to Hama province.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/47.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15178\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/47.jpg\" alt=\"4\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n3. Another <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/I8xda\">picture<\/a> with a brother-in-arms is\u00a0just a new confirmation of the Russian military presence in Hama (Dimo district).\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/56.jpg\"><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15179\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/56.jpg\" alt=\"5\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" \/><\/a>4. And here is the answer on 'Who is Mr. Luzanov?' question. Evgeny Luzanov served in the military unit No. 93855 in 2010-2011. He signed a contract in 2011 and acted as an army truck driver.\u00a0The clip-on insignia indicate the\u00a0branch of troops: <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/pAyjz\">photo 1<\/a> or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/FFkN6\">photo 2<\/a>.
