OSINT comes and goes. Straight-up, there are days, weeks where nothing really interesting happens worth note in your field. That's okay and actually really good. Use that time to read books, or find new resources on the background of your subject/topic of interest. Always always always be learning.

Satellite imagery by Planet of today, Dec 16, so far doesn't show a massive leak of heavy fuel oil, as feared after two aging Russian oil tankers sunk or were damaged in the Kerch Strait. We'll keep monitoring to see if the situation develops.

New Thread.🇸🇾vehicle losses in Hama city.
On 05.12 Rebels moved into the city. Some fighting but SAA largely melt away.
Source says here they unexpectedly met a 🇸🇾tank then flee AA MG from it.
Enroute an abandoned 🇸🇾ZSU-23-4 Shilka (seen elsewhere later).
I didn't count the T-55 as unclear affiliation.

Our friends at @planet captured an unusual -- likely Iranian -- aircraft at Latakia (Khmeimim Air Base/OSLK) earlier today. We think its likely an evacuation flight. Rats fleeing a sinking ship.

This appears to be Idlib, not Hama. Building in the background resembles the Shawarma House in Idlib at 35.9322, 36.6240 as seen in one of their Facebook videos here: www.facebook.com/Shawarmahome...
Filming location would perhaps be across the street at another shawarma spot at 35.9319, 36.6240.
