InformNapalm continues to register the Russian weaponry and equipment shipments to Syria.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

In one of the previous publications we provided the evidence that\u00a0Russia had\u00a0paved its way to the ground operation in Syria\u00a0through the sea<\/a>. The same story told about the presence of the Russian\u00a0\u2018Solntsepyok\u2019 heavy flamethrower systems there. The current article shows additional proofs of the fact that Russia supplies\u00a0ammunition for this TOS-1\/1A weapon complex.<\/p>\n

Conducting the OSINT investigation we found out that Aleksandr Bondarenko (born on August 14, 1996), one of previously disclosed Russian servicemen, after several clumsy attempts to hide information in his social profile accidentally leaked data on secret ammunition shipments. Several seconds later the information was erased, but it remained in Google’s cache.<\/p>\n

For reference:<\/strong> There was an attempt to hide profile and move it from\u00a0https:\/\/vk.com\/sasha_14081996<\/a>\u00a0to https:\/\/vk.com\/sanya_bondar1996<\/a>\u00a0(profile archive<\/a>, album archive<\/a>, contacts archive<\/a>). And this is copy<\/a> of the previous account from November 13, 2015 (cache archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

General information:\u00a0<\/b>Aleksandr Bondarenko – a conscript soldier\u00a0supposedly\u00a0of the 108th guards airborne regiment <\/strong>from the 7th guards airborne division from Novorossiysk (information is still being checked). But this is not the main point here.<\/p>\n

One of Bondarenko’s photos from October 11, 2015 shows ‘Yauza’\u00a0bulk carrier from Murmansk\u00a0belonging to\u00a0the Russian Navy. This vessel was loaded in the port of Novorossiysk (archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

It is known from the open sources that ‘Yauza’ was loaded in Novorossiysk, passed through the Bosphorus strait\u00a0and headed to\u00a0Syria in October of 2015.<\/p>\n

Here you can see the loading process in Novorossiysk pictured<\/a>\u00a0by local volunteers – the photo was uploaded on October 15, 2015 (archive 1<\/a>, 2<\/a>).<\/p>\n

And this is<\/a> the vessel’s passage through Bosphorus on October 16, 2015 (archive<\/a>).<\/p>\n

We got a better look at the pictures deleted by Bondarenko and found this:<\/p>\n

According to Google’s cache Bondarenko deleted a very interesting picture taken in the ship’s hold. This photo answered the question “What was the cargo of the ship, besides common ammunition?”<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you take a closer look at Bondarenko’s picture then you will see the thermobaric projectiles for heavy flamethrower systems.<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘<\/b>Solntsepyok’ systems’ presence in Syria have been already mentioned\u00a0in our previous article:<\/p>\n
