November 26, 2016

Friday 25 November – Tornados attacked a mortar team and a truck-bomb factory in Mosul…RAF and Coalition aircraft continue to support Iraqi forces as they press further into eastern Mosul, as the urban operating environment becomes increasingly congested and challenging. Tornados dealt with a particularly challenging target in eastern Mosul on Friday 25 November – a Daesh mortar hidden in trees next to a busy road. The Tornados used a Brimstone missile, which has a small warhead and a very precise targeting system, to strike the target accurately whilst limiting as far as possible the risk to the passing traffic. The Tornados then hit a second target, using a Paveway IV to destroy a workshop in south-eastern Mosul which was producing truck-bombs.

2.1 APPRÉCIATION DE SITUATION

Sur l’ensemble du territoire, Daech utilise la liberté de manœuvre sur certains axes pour poursuivre le renforcement des lignes de défense. Dans les zones contestées, Daech reste agressif et les gains obtenus par la coalition nécessitent un effort significatif pour la sécurisation des territoires libérés.

En Irak, l’organisation terroriste continue de menacer les forces et la population au-delà des lignes de front, mais le recul progressif se poursuit. En parallèle de la bataille de Mossoul, Daech conduit des attentats réguliers à Bagdad, faisant peser une menace sécuritaire permanente dans le pays.

En Syrie, la géométrie du théâtre est complexifiée par l’immixtion des nombreux acteurs présents, notamment dans la région d’Al Bab où les forces syriennes d’opposition ont atteint les abords d’Al Bab où ils font face à une défense résolue de Daech.

Les opérations des forces démocratiques syriennes vers Raqqah ont permis la saisie de la localité de Tall as-Samn.

AVANCÉE SUR LA BATAILLE DE MOSSOUL

La progression des FSI marque le pas. L’organisation terroriste recherche l’imbrication et maintient ses capacités de harcèlement des forces irakiennes, qui font effort sur la sécurisation et le nettoyage des zones libérées.

Si Daech se replie progressivement de la périphérie de Mossoul, l’organisation dispose toujours d’une liberté de mouvement dans la ville qui lui permet de concentrer ses efforts en particulier à l’Est pour gêner l’ICTS qui tente de reprendre une progression méthodique, en nettoyant les zones conquises.

L’aérodrome de Tall Afar a été repris par les Popular Mobilization Forces, rejointes par les forces de sécurité irakiennes de la15e brigade.

2.2 ACTIVITÉS DE LA FORCE CHAMMAL

Sur la semaine, plus de 50 sorties AIR ont eu lieu dont 6 sorties de renseignement (ISR), 1 sortie de commandement et de contrôle de l’E2C Hawkeye et 44 sorties de reconnaissance armée. Elles ont permis de conduire 13 frappes (dont 7 dans la région de Mossoul et 3 en Syrie, au nord de Raqqah), détruisant 14 objectifs.

Les frappes aux abords de la ville de Mossoul sont conduites avec des précautions particulières liées à l’environnement urbain, limitant logiquement leur volume.

Cette semaine, la TF Wagram a réalisé 2 tirs au profit des forces irakiennes, dont un d’illumination et un destiné à détruire des moyens de franchissement de Daech sur le Tigre.

Le GAN déployé autour du porte-avions Charles de Gaulle a été réarticulé après le départ de la frégate La Fayette et l’intégration d’une frégate américaine, l’USS Mason le 22 novembre ainsi que celle de la frégate Guépratte et.

Operation Inherent Resolve

Kampflybidraget – Tyrkiet

Kampflybidraget deltager fortsat i kampene for befrielsen af Mosul og Raqqah.

Danske F-16 har i den seneste uge gennemført 12 missioner, hvor der er udført overvågning, efterretningsindhentning samt angreb på bunkers, tunneller, ISIL personel og bygninger.

Missionerne er foregået over de irakiske provinser Ninawa, Al Anbar, Erbil og Dahuk og de syriske provinser Ar Raqqah og Halab.

Fra onsdag den 16. november kl. 12.00 til onsdag den 23. november kl. 12.00 er følgende gældende:

Der er fløjet 12 missioner

Der er anvendt 7 præcisionsbomber

Der er totalt fløjet 245 missioner

Der er totalt anvendt 331 præcisionsbomber

Radarbidraget – Irak og De Forenede Arabiske Emirater

Bidraget i De Forenede Arabiske Emirater har afsluttet overdragelsen fra hold 4 til hold 5. Operationerne i området koncentrerer sig om områderne omkring Mosul samt Syrien. Det danske bidrag sørger for at klargøre fly i form af lufttankning. Endvidere forhåndskoordinerer operatørerne højder og områder til de mange fly, der opererer i et forholdsvist afgrænset område. Derved bidrager operatørerne til at højne flyvesikkerheden for både danske og andre nationers piloter.

Træningsbidraget – Irak

Det danske træningsbidrag har i denne uge påbegyndt træning af irakiske enheder i form af våbenuddannelse samt gruppe- og delingsuddannelse.

Resolute Support – Afghanistan

I den forgangne uge har fokus været på opstart af det nye hold på ANAOA (Afghan National Army Officer Academy) samt de sidste forberedelser forud for opstart af de to ældre hold, der startede lørdag i uge 46. Der er mødt 277 kadetter (265 mænd og 12 kvinder) – tallet forventes dog øget til ca. 320 i løbet af den næste uge.

Alle nytilgåede danske mentorer har overtaget deres opgaver og er klar til opstart af de øvrige hold i slutningen af indeværende uge.

Standing NATO Maritime Group 2 – Middelhavet

Absalon gennemfører fortsat operationer i Middelhavet. Mandag den 21. november ophørte enheden med at være en del af NATO’s stående maritime styrker, og har siden da gennemført et kort planlagt havneophold i Valetta havn på Malta. Hovedformålet med dette havneophold har været at tage forsyninger ombord efter en længere periode til søs.

Tirsdag den 22. november blev der gennemført besøg fra Forsvaret ledelse til Absalon. Forsvarschefen, Chefen for Operationsstaben, Chefen for Marinestaben, Chefen for Flyverstaben samt Chefen for 2. Eskadre var alle ombord i et antal timer og talte i den forbindelse med besætningen.

Operation Ocean Shield – Seychellerne

Kommandoen over det danske bidrag blev tilbagegivet fra MARCOM (Allied Maritime Command) til Danmark den 19. november.

Challengeren landede tirsdag den 22. november om eftermiddagen i Aalborg, og tilbage på Seychellerne er nu kun disablingholdet. Nedtagningen af lejren går efter planen, og der forudses ikke nogen forhindringer.

Lancée le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal, participation française à l’opération Inherent Resolve (OIR) de lutte contre Daech, a adopté une nouvelle identité visuelle.

Lancée le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal, participation française à l’opération Inherent Resolve (OIR) de lutte contre Daech, a adopté une nouvelle identité visuelle.

A la suite des attentats de Paris, le président de la République a décidé de renforcer la lutte contre Daech en autorisant notamment les vols d’avions français au-dessus de la Syrie.

Le nouveau logo présente désormais, sur un fond de drapeau tricolore, les deux pays qui constituent le théâtre de l’opération Chammal : l’Irak et la Syrie. Dans le cercle extérieur, le nom de l’opération est encadré par deux roses des vents, allusion au chammal, le vent de nord-ouest qui souffle sur l’Irak et le golfe Persique. Dans le cercle intérieur, l’épée, les deux ancres de marine et les ailes rappellent le caractère interarmées du dispositif français.

Le cimeterre et la feuille de laurier, également présents sur le logo de l’opération Inherent Resolve, marquent ainsi le caractère indissociable des deux opérations. Le cimeterre symbolise les forces locales qui mènent les combats sur le terrain contre Daech, appuyées et formées par les soldats de la coalition. La branche de laurier, symbole de la victoire, se compose de sept feuilles qui représentent les sept principaux peuples d’Irak : sunnites, chiites, kurdes, turkmènes, assyriens, yézidis et arméniens.

Lancée depuis le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal est le volet français de l’opération OIR et mobilise aujourd’hui près de 4 000 militaires. A la demande du gouvernement irakien et en coordination avec les alliés de la France présents dans la région, l’opération Chammal repose sur deux piliers complémentaires : un pilier « formation» au profit d’unités de sécurité nationales irakiennes et un pilier « appui » consistant à soutenir l’action des forces locales engagées au sol contre Daech et à frapper les capacités militaires de Daech.
