#Colombia ๐จ๐ด: "Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia โ People's Army" (#FARC-EP) released a video with captured Colombian soldiers in #Cumbitara, #Nariรฑo.
The fighters are armed with an Israeli IWI Tavor TAR-21 bullpup rifle with Manticore Arms ARClight XTL aftermarket handguards and ex-military Galil AR assault rifle โboth chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO.
Considering the flags, it's quite possible that former PCCC members, who joined the FARC, also took part in this action.

#Syria ๐ธ๐พ: Arab Tribes released a video of their mortar attack on #YPG/#SDF positions in #Manbij, #Aleppo.
The attack was seemingly carried out with a rare 81mm M252 mortar and M821-pattern HE mortar bomb.
The members of the tribe are likely affiliated or in touch with #TFSA; considering these mortar variants mostly appear in the TFSA's weaponry; although some used by #HTS as well.

#Russia / #Ukraine ๐ท๐บ๐บ๐ฆ: Combatants of #Russian Forces released photos of a new and rare mortar bomb used by RuAF:
The photo shows 120mm Burmese 120 HE MK II mortar bombs with AZ DM111-A2 fuzes which were supplied by the Military Council (Junta) in #Myanmar (#Burma) ๐ฒ๐ฒ.
The paint of the mortar bomb is worn and the red stripe can be noted on the mortar bomb. So it can be said that this is different from the previously seen Burmese 120ER mortar bombs (which originally have yellow stripes).
