Friday 10 June – Tornados provided further support over Fallujah, whilst a Reaper and Typhoons prosecuted multiple Daesh targets in northern Iraq…On Friday 10 June, a Reaper worked in close conjunction with other coalition aircraft to engage Daesh rocket and mortar teams operating near Qayyarah. The Reaper provided support to two coalition strikes on rocket positions, then used its own Hellfire missiles and a GBU-12 guided bomb against a further set of rocket launchers and a mortar. A Typhoon FGR4 flight was also operating near Qayyarah, and they conducted attacks against five targets: three buildings where Daesh extremists had been spotted gathering and two more rocket launcher positions. North-east of Mosul, another pair of Typhoons destroyed a heavy machine-gun team with a Paveway IV. To the south, Tornados again provided close air support over Fallujah, using their Paveways against three strongpoints which housed two machine-gun teams and a group of terrorists armed with rocket-propelled grenades.

Wednesday 8 June – Reapers attacked targets near Raqqa in Syria, and Qayyarah in Iraq; Typhoons and Tornados supported Iraqi ground operations in both Fallujah and east of Mosul…

The following day, Tornados conducted three attacks to support Iraqi ground forces engaged in firefights with terrorists inside Fallujah. Despite the close proximity of the Iraqi forces, the GR4s were able to deliver simultaneous attacks with Paveway IVs against two strongpoints housing Daesh machine-gun and artillery teams. They then struck a further machine-gun position when it also opened fire on the Iraqis.

Typhoons also contributed to the Fallujah operations, using Paveway IVs against two groups of Daesh extremists armed with a light machine-gun and rocket-propelled grenades. In northern Iraq, another Typhoon mission successfully attacked a Daesh-held building east of Mosul, whilst a Reaper used a GBU-12 bomb to demolish a building where another coalition surveillance aircraft had observed terrorists unloading supplies. A second Reaper patrolled over Syria and employed a Hellfire missile to destroy a Daesh truck travelling at speed on the open road south of Raqqa.

Notes

Reports three strikes destroying four goals against Daesh in Iraq. The focus was on the support of ground operations in Mosul and Fallujah and action was mainly aimed at armed Daesh positions. One planned strike was conducted in Iraq on June 5 against a Daesh training building and and two ground support strikes were carried out on June 6 and 7 against terrorists’ armed positions. “The drop in activity is mainly explained by the crew falls on BAP of Jordan. Chammal the device has changed slightly since the E3-F AWACS operations left the theater on June 4 and three Mirage 2000D were replaced by 3 Mirage 2000N.’

IRAK / SYRIE : CHAMMAL

La coalition poursuit la stratégie qui consiste à appuyer les troupes locales dans leurs combats contre Daech tout en frappant les capacités de l’organisation terroriste.

Daech recule là où la coalition accentue la pression (Falludjah, Sud Mossoul, Manbij). L’organisation tente de reprendre pied en conduisant des attaques de harcèlement sur les forces de sécurité irakiennes (Tikrit et Nasir). Elle poursuit également les attentats suicides à Bagdad.

La bataille pour libérer Fallujah se poursuit et les forces de sécurité irakiennes progressent, malgré la posture défensive de Daech qui se renforce à mesure qu’elles se rapprochent de la ville. Les forces de l’ICTS entrainées à Bagdad par les instructeurs français participent à la reprise de la ville.

Activités de la force Chammal

Du 1er au 7 juin 2016, les aéronefs de l’opération Chammal ont poursuivi leurs missions aériennes contre Daech, en réalisant 37 sorties, dont 25 de bombardement et 11 de recueil de renseignement.

Au total 3 frappes

ont détruit 4 objectifs

de Daech.

Cette semaine, l’action de la force Chammal concernait surtout l’appui des opérations terrestres dans les régions de Mossoul et Fallujah. Son action visait principalement des positions armées de Daesh.

1 frappe planifiée a été conduite en Irak le 5 juin contre un bâtiment d’entraînement de Daech.

2 frappes d’appui au sol ont été réalisées en Irak le 6 et 7 juin contre des positions armées terroristes.

La baisse d’activité s’explique principalement par la relève d’équipage sur la BAP de Jordanie.

Le dispositif de Chammal a légèrement évolué puisque l’E3-F AWACS a quitté le théâtre des opérations le 4 juin et 3 Mirage 2000D ont été remplacés par 3 Mirage 2000N.

L’E-3F Français, plus connu sous le nom d’AWACS, a terminé le 4 juin 2016 sa mission au profit de l’opération Chammal. Déployé sur la base américaine d’Al Udeïd au Qatar depuis le 31 mars 2016, l’avion et son équipage ont assuré des missions de « command and control » au sein de la coalition internationale.

(1)2014_AEOA_201_042_056.jpg

Pour sa troisième participation à l’Opération Inherent Resolve, l’AWACS a effectué une quinzaine de sorties et réalisé près de 150 heures de vol au-dessus du théâtre d’opérations. Sa mission consiste à assurer la « déconfliction » entre les moyens aériens de la coalition (drônes, chasseurs, ravitailleurs, bombardiers), c’est-à-dire la coordination des missions des nombreux aéronefs qui volent dans l’espace restreint de la zone d’opération.

La flotte d’E-3F totalise plus de 13 700 heures de vol en opérations. L’AWACS a participé à de nombreuses opérations françaises : Serval, Salamandre, Trident, Harmattan ou encore Chammal.

L’E-3F Français, plus connu sous le nom d’AWACS, a terminé le 4 juin 2016 sa mission au profit de l’opération Chammal. Déployé sur la base américaine d’Al Udeïd au Qatar depuis le 31 mars 2016, l’avion et son équipage ont assuré des missions de « command and control » au sein de la coalition internationale.

Pour sa troisième participation à l’Opération Inherent Resolve, l’AWACS a effectué une quinzaine de sorties et réalisé près de 150 heures de vol au-dessus du théâtre d’opérations. Sa mission consiste à assurer la « déconfliction » entre les moyens aériens de la coalition (drônes, chasseurs, ravitailleurs, bombardiers), c’est-à-dire la coordination des missions des nombreux aéronefs qui volent dans l’espace restreint de la zone d’opération.

La flotte d’E-3F totalise plus de 13 700 heures de vol en opérations. L’AWACS a participé à de nombreuses opérations françaises : Serval, Salamandre, Trident, Harmattan ou encore Chammal. Il y assure chaque fois les fonctions opérationnelles de « command and control » (C2) et de détection avancée (AEW), essentielle dans les opérations modernes qui réservent un rôle décisif à l’arme aérienne.

Manbij Offensive

SOUTHWEST ASIA – Since the start of their offensive to liberate Manbij, Syria, the Syrian Arab Coalition has freed a total of 344 square kilometers from Da’esh control.

The Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve has conducted more than 105 strikes in support of the battle to liberate Manbij.

The Syrian Arab Coalition is leading the operation and will be responsible for securing Manbij once it is freed.

Coalition advisors are assisting the Syrian Arab Coalition leadership with command and control from nodes located behind the forward line of friendly forces.

The Syrian Arab Coalition supported by Coalition air power have destroyed 108 Da’esh fighting positions, 31 Da’esh vehicles, 17 Da’esh heavy-weapons, two Da’esh weapon caches, and one Da’esh vehicle borne improvised explosive device.

The operation to free Manbij is part of the Coalition-supported moderate Syrian opposition efforts to clear Da’esh from the Turkish border and the Mar’a line. The goal is to limit the flow of foreign fighters and minimize Da’esh’s threat to Turkey, the rest of Europe, and the United States.

Thursday 2 June – Tornados and Typhoons provided close air support over Fallujah, striking eight targets, whilst other Typhoons patrolled over northern Iraq, hitting Daesh positions near Kisik and Mosul…

The offensive by Iraqi ground forces to liberate Fallujah has continued to be the major focus for the Royal Air Force contribution to the coalition air campaign against Daesh.

Three successive flights of Tornado GR4s and Typhoon FGR4s provided close air support to Iraqi units on the southern outskirts of the city on Thursday 2 June. One Tornado flight conducted four attacks with Paveway IV guided bombs, striking a bunker and three teams of terrorists armed with an anti-tank gun, rocket-propelled grenades and a heavy machine-gun. A second Tornado mission delivered simultaneous attacks on two Daesh-held buildings, then a third bombing attack on a heavy machine-gun position that had opened fire on Iraqi troops. The Typhoon flight dealt with a further artillery piece, using a Paveway IV.

In northern Iraq, another pair of Typhoons struck a group of terrorists spotted advancing towards peshmerga positions near Kisik, then headed to an area south-east of Mosul where they used three Paveways to attack more extremists mustering in and around a large warehouse.

Since 25 May, reports 27 ground support strikes destroying 31 Daesh targets. Operations were focused on Mosul and Falljujah. This effort was particularly intense on 28 and 29 May, with 14 strikes carried out in less than 48 hours against Daesh fortified positions, command posts and logistics pads.

Point de situation des opérations

État-major des armées | 2 juin 2016 IRAK / SYRIE : CHAMMAL La situation militaire est marquée par la poursuite des opérations de reconquête des zones occupées par Daech. Le groupe terroriste conduit une défense discontinue des territoires conquis en 2014 pour sanctuariser ses points forts et ses axes logistiques. En Irak, les Forces de sécurité irakiennes (FSI) sont engagées depuis peu dans la reprise de la ville de Falloujah.

  • Dans la vallée de l’Euphrate, les FSI conservent l’initiative sur Daech. Depuis un mois, elles ont repris le contrôle de près de 60 kilomètres de territoire sur les berges du fleuve. Après la libération de la ville de Rutbah, du 13 au 19 mai 2016, les troupes irakiennes cherchent à rouvrir et sécuriser l’axe économique avec la Jordanie. Par ailleurs, leurs efforts se concentrent sur la ville de Falloujah qui a été encerclée. Les FSI ont pris pied dans les faubourgs et les opérations de reconquête sont en cours.
  • Au Nord du pays, dans la vallée du Tigre, Daech reste en posture de défense ferme autour de Mossoul. En revanche, les forces irakiennes conservent la capacité d’interdire à Daech toute reprise du terrain.

En Syrie, la coalition appuie actuellement une offensive dans le Nord du pays en direction de Manbij. Bien que sur le recul, Daech conserve cependant une capacité d’action asymétrique. Bagdad a ainsi encore été touchée par plusieurs attentats dans la semaine. Activités de la force Chammal La force Chammal poursuit la campagne aérienne et les missions de formation et de conseil. Depuis le 25 mai 2016, les aéronefs de l’opération Chammal ont poursuivi leurs missions aériennes contre Daech, en réalisant 40 sorties dont 36 de bombardement et 3 de recueil de renseignement. Elles ont permis la réalisation de 27 frappes, aboutissant à la destruction de 31 objectifs de Daech. La force Chammal poursuit l’appui des opérations terrestres dans les régions de Mossoul et de Falloujah. Cet effort a été particulièrement intense les journées du 28 et du 29 mai, avec 14 frappes réalisées en moins de 48 heures contre des positions fortifiées, des moyens de tir indirect, ainsi que des postes de commandement et des plots logistiques de Daech. 27 frappes d’appui au sol ont été réalisées en Irak au cours de la semaine La force Chammal a réalisé des missions d’appui au sol en soutien des FSI, particulièrement dans les secteurs de Falloujah et Mossoul.

En dépit des combats, les actions de formation se poursuivent.

  • La Task Force Narvik participe ainsi à la formation de près de 400 stagiaires qui devraient rejoindre les zones de combats au terme de leur formation ;

One patrolled the skies above Qayyarah, where a camouflaged set of loaded rocket launch rails were spotted and destroyed with a Hellfire missile. A second Reaper patrolled over eastern Syria and western Iraq, and located a terrorist check-point on the Iraqi side of the border, west of Al Qa’im, which was stopping the free movement of traffic. Again, a Hellfire missile was employed and the check-point successfully attacked. Two Tornado missions provided reconnaissance and close air support to Iraqi forces around Fallujah. One pair of Tornados used Paveway IVs to conduct simultaneous attacks on two Daesh-held buildings close to a canal to the south of the city; one building housed a terrorist sniper team, the other a recoilless anti-tank artillery piece. Both targets were destroyed by direct hits. The second Tornado flight successfully silenced a heavy-machine-gun positioned in a third Daesh strongpoint after it opened fire on the advancing Iraqi troops.
