CHAMMAL: le pilier « appui » de l’opération

Mise à jour : 17/10/2018
Le 10 septembre 2018, les forces démocratiques syriennes (FDS) soutenues par la coalition ont lancé une offensive terrestre dans la moyenne Vallée de l’Euphrate à la frontière entre l’Irak et la Syrie. Elle vise à neutraliser la dernière emprise territoriale tenue par les terroristes en Syrie.

La coalition participe à cette ultime phase de la lutte contre Daech en appuyant les FDS engagées pour reconquérir la poche d’Hajin, située sur la rive orientale de l’Euphrate. Tous les moyens du pilier «　appui　» de l’opération Chammal sont engagés.

Actuellement, le pilier «　appui　» est structuré autour de dix Rafale de l’armée de l’air, d’un Atlantique 2 de la Marine Nationale et d’un détachement d’artillerie équipé de canons CAESAR.

Ces moyens participent activement au soutien des troupes combattant au sol, en mettant en œuvre leurs capacités de renseignement et de frappes ciblées.

Les 25 et 27 septembre 2018, les Rafales de la base aérienne projetée au Levant ont par exemple réalisé des missions offensives dans la Moyenne Vallée de l’Euphrate. Équipés de bombes de précision à guidage GPS, les pilotes de Rafales ont détruit une cache d’armes ainsi qu’une structure logistique du groupe terroriste dans la région d’Abou Kamal en Syrie. En tout 8 frappes ont été réalisées depuis le 10 septembre au cours de près de 130 sorties aériennes en appui des FDS.

Les artilleurs français de la Task Force Wagram tiennent également un rôle prépondérant dans l’opération. Ils ont effectué près d’une centaine de missions de tirs depuis le début de cette ultime phase de l’opération.

Depuis le début de l’opération Chammal les forces du pilier «　appui　» ont réalisé 1 464 frappes aériennes et 1 975 missions de tir d’artillerie. Après quatre années d’opérations, le groupe terroriste Daech a perdu la quasi-totalité de son territoire.

Lancée depuis le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal représente la participation française à l’OIR (opération Inherent Resolve) et mobilise aujourd’hui près de 1 100 militaires. À 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 du groupe terroriste.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ground offensive begins for Operation Roundup, phase three

SOUTHWEST ASIA – Syrian Democratic Forces initiated ground operations for phase three of Operation Roundup on September 10.

The ground offensive, supported by Coalition cross-border air and artillery strikes, will clear ISIS remnants from northeastern Syria, along the Middle Euphrates River Valley toward the Syria-Iraq border.

Operation Roundup began May 1, 2018. Phase one successfully cleared ISIS near Baghuz in northeastern Syria May 15. Phase two cleared ISIS from Dashisha, Syria July 20. Shaping operations for phase three began Aug. 4, and ground operations will clear ISIS remnants from Hajin and the remaining Dayr Az Zawr countryside east of the Euphrates River.

Syrian Democratic Forces have proven themselves reliable, effective combat soldiers who abide by the law of armed conflict.

“We will continue to support our SDF partners in our shared fight against ISIS in Syria, and we thank the SDF for the incredible contribution and sacrifices they have made on behalf of the international community,” said Maj. Gen. Patrick Roberson, commander of the Special Operations Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve.

SDF operations, with Coalition support, have been instrumental in defeating ISIS and liberating millions of Syrians from brutal terrorist rule. The removal of ISIS from the battlefield has also thwarted the terrorist organization’s ability to recruit, train, equip, finance, inspire, plan and execute attacks throughout the region and the rest of the world.

“The multi-ethnic Syrian Democratic Forces remain committed to liberating the people of northeastern Syria from ISIS’s control and putting an end to the human suffering in the area,” said Roberson. “Moving forward, we will continue coordination with the SDF and other partners to promote regional security and stability that will ensure a lasting defeat of ISIS.”

Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve remains committed to defeating ISIS in designated parts of Iraq and Syria, and to helping set conditions for follow-on operations to increase regional stability.

France report that on Aug 31st, two Rafales struck two caches of ISIS arms in the Euphrates Valley. It took more than six hours of flight to the Rafale patrol and three air refueling to accomplish this mission.

Chammal : destruction de caches d’armes de Daech

Mise à jour : 07/09/2018

Le 31 août 2018, deux Rafale de la base aérienne projetée (BAP) en Jordanie ont de nouveau frappé Daech lors d’une mission de Close Air Support (CAS – appui aérien rapproché), en Syrie.

Comme quasiment tous les jours depuis le début de l’opération Chammal, les aéronefs du « Groupe de bombardement 43 » ont décollé, le 31 août, de la base aérienne projetée en Jordanie pour lutter contre Daech depuis le ciel syro-irakien. Cette mission s’est conclue par la réalisation d’une frappe sur deux caches d’armes dans la vallée de l’Euphrate, qui a permis de poursuivre la réduction du potentiel militaire ennemi.

Les pilotes des Rafale ont procédé au tir d’armements de précision qui ont détruit leurs objectifs. Afin de mener à bien cette mission en toute sécurité, ces frappes ont été précédées d’une reconnaissance du site en coordination avec un drone de la coalition et ont fait l’objet d’un dialogue constant avec un contrôleur aérien avancé en charge de désigner l’objectif aux pilotes.

Il a fallu plus de six heures de vol à la patrouille de Rafale et trois ravitaillements en vol pour accomplir cette mission qui s’inscrivait dans le cadre de la préparation de l’offensive des forces démocratiques syriennes contre les derniers réduits territoriaux de Daech en Syrie.

La base aérienne projetée en Jordanie contribue au quotidien à la lutte contre Daech. Depuis sa création le 21 novembre 2014, près de 6 000 sorties et 26 000 heures de vol ont été réalisées par les aéronefs qui y sont stationnés.

Lancée depuis le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal représente la participation française à OIR (opération Inherent Resolve) et mobilise aujourd’hui près de 1 100 militaires. À 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 du groupe terroriste.
