Due to the fact of\u00a0another ceasefire violation in Donbas by the Russian mercenaries, and in connection with the missile and rocket strikes on civil objects in Syria, InformNapalm community continues to publish the information about the Russian official air operation and unofficial ground one.<\/p>\n

Russia, claiming she fights with terrorists,\u00a0creates socio-economic and political tensions in the Middle East and provokes refugee flows to EU.<\/p>\n

In the course of new OSINT investigation, InformNapalm registered that the Russian special services’ personnel increasingly tries to hide any tracks of presence of the Russian servicemen outside the perimeter of Hmeimim airbase in Latakia. This is logical, since existence of other ‘secret’ Russian bases or combat operations in other Syrian provinces go beyond Moscow’s official position. In particular, recently a sudden deletion of Aleksandr Serdiukov’s (born on September 5, 1992, in Elista, Republic of Kalmykia, Russia) social profile was registered. He serves in the 336th separate marine brigade of the Baltic Fleet in Baltiysk (archive 1<\/a>, archive 2<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"Selection_032\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u00a0seems there is nothing special – a common contract marine guards\u00a0a military base of the Russian armed forces. But the\u00a0detailed\u00a0analysis of the data on Serdiukov has brought to light\u00a0some interesting details.<\/p>\n

Please pay attention to the photo of Aleksandr together\u00a0with his brothers-in-arms in front of an aviation equipment hangar (archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"Selection_033\"<\/a>InformNapalm has done a research and analyzed the satellite pictures. They showed that the Baltic marines were deployed pretty\u00a0far from Latakia.\u00a0Here<\/a> you can see the place where the photo was taken.<\/p>\n

This Khalkhalah military base is located to the South of Damascus.<\/p>\n

\"\u043a\u0430\u0440\u0442\u0430\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Selection_035\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This information is yet one more proof that the Russians actively operate all over Syria. For example, other sources confirm that the Russian servicemen stay at\u00a0the airbase near Hama\u00a0(1<\/a>, 2<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"\u0421\u0438\u0440\u0438\u044f1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\u0421\u0438\u0440\u0438\u044f2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Besides the Syrian aircrafts, the picture shows also the Russian Il-76 planes deploying troops, equipment and weaponry to Hama.<\/p>\n

As for the Serdiukov’s military unit identification – he served in the 58th army of the Russian armed forces (archive<\/a>), then signed a\u00a0contract and became a marine (archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"Selection_036\"<\/a><\/p>\n

‘White dolphin over the sea’, a known symbol\u00a0of the 336th marine brigade, can be noticed in the private photo of the marine sitting on a brand new BTR-82A vehicle (archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"Selection_038\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The same sign can be found in the pictures from the official group of the 336th brigade here<\/a> and here<\/a>. ‘White dolphin’ is the official symbol of the unit. Moreover, this brigade took in service new BTR-82A units with the same coloring pattern in 2013 (article<\/a>, archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n
