CHAMMAL

APPRECIATION DE SITUATION

Sur le théâtre du Levant, les gains territoriaux contre Daech se poursuivent et la pression continue d’augmenter sur les dernières grandes emprises de l’organisation terroriste.

En Irak, dans la vallée de l’Euphrate, Daech perd progressivement du terrain. Plus au nord en revanche, Daech consolide la défense de Mossoul et de ses environs ; et une poche de résistance autour d’Hawijah subsiste encore.

En parallèle, les éléments de Daech les plus mobiles et combatifs, poursuivent leur logique de harcèlement. La menace asymétrique reste latente jusque dans les zones reprises (Bagdad…).

ACTIVITES DE LA FORCE CHAMMAL

Les missions de renseignement et d’appui se sont poursuivies en Irak et en Syrie selon les zones d’effort de la coalition. En dépit du contexte qui limite le volume de l’activité Air sur l’ensemble du théâtre, la participation française a augmenté. Le rythme des missions d’appui au sol est passé en moyenne de 3 à 8 par jour et celui des missions ISR de 1 à 4 par jour.

Les avions de l’opération Chammal ont réalisé au profit de la coalition :

– 7 vols d’ISR conduits par des Rafale ou par l’ATL2 tandis que les avions de commandement et de contrôle de l’espace aérien ont réalisé 7 missions (5 sorties E2C Hawkeye et 2 sorties E-3F Awacs).

– 5 missions de ravitaillement conduites par le C 135-Fr.

– 68 sorties de reconnaissances armées et de frappes planifiées (CAS/AI) de Rafale (dont 44 Rafale M) permettant de conduire 8 frappes et traiter 9 objectifs (dont 6 frappes par les avions du GAN).

La TF Wagram, à sa pleine capacité opérationnelle, poursuit ses actions, essentiellement pour des missions de protection de la base opérationnelle avancée de Qayyarah-West et d’appui des troupes irakiennes au sol.

Cette semaine, elle a mené 12 missions de tirs d’interdiction visant à :

– empêcher Daech de prendre des positions permettant de positionner des pièces d’artillerie,

– entraver la liberté de manœuvre de l’ennemi en empêchant sa progression.
