‘CJTF-OIR partner ensures first humanitarian aid delivery to Rukban since January
SOUTHWEST ASIA – Maghaweir al-Thowra, a partner of Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve, provided security to ensure the safe delivery of thousands of tons of U.N. humanitarian aid to the Rukban internally displaced persons camp near At Tanf, Syria, today.
“The security the MaT provided to the U.N. humanitarian aid convoy was instrumental in ensuring roughly 55,000 people received lifesaving aid,” said Maj. Gen. (UK) Christopher Ghika, CJTF-OIR deputy commander. “We also want to express a deep gratitude to the Syrian Arab Red Crescent for their essential role in delivering to people in dire need of any assistance. We continue to stand ready to enable future delivery of U.N. humanitarian relief to the people of Rukban until they are able to return home as we pursue our mission of an enduring defeat of ISIS.”
Enabling the delivery of this humanitarian aid provided life-saving relief to people seeking shelter from ISIS.’

‘Distribution of Humanitarian Relief in Rukban Successful
BAGHDAD–Thousands of tons of United Nations humanitarian aid have been safely delivered to the Rukban internally displaced persons camp near At Tanf, Syria. The Maghaweir al-Thowra, a partner of Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve, provided security to ensure the safe delivery of the UN convoy.
The security provided by the MaT allowed for UN and Red Crescent aid workers to safely administer life-saving medical and humanitarian relief prior to the winter season, when mortality rates would be expected to be highest without assistance.
“The enduring defeat of ISIS will require more than a purely military solution,” said Maj. Gen. (UK) Christopher Ghika, deputy commander for CJTF-OIR. “The toxic and evil impact ISIS has had in the region will ultimately be eradicated, but that will require international assistance to ensure that innocent people like those in Rukban are not forgotten.”
CJTF-OIR and its partners continue to stand ready to enable future delivery of UN humanitarian relief to the people of Rukban until they are able to return home as we pursue our mission of an enduring defeat of ISIS.’

[Since October 2016 the French gunners of the Task Force (TF) Wagram have conducted 2,000 firing missions against ISIS. They are currently deployed in northwestern Iraq to support the action of Syrian troops engaged on the ground in the mid-Euphrates valley]
‘CHAMMAL : 2 000 missions de tir par la Task Force Wagram depuis 2016.
Mise à jour : 08/11/2018
Depuis octobre 2016 les artilleurs français de la Task Force (TF) Wagram sont pleinement engagés dans la lutte contre Daech. Après deux ans d’engagement, ils viennent de conduire leur 2 000e mission de tir pour appuyer les forces de la coalition et combattre cet ennemi commun.
Au sein de l’opération Chammal, nom du volet français de l’opération Inherent Resolve conduite par les États-Unis, environ 150 militaires sont nécessaires à la mise en œuvre des trois canons Caesar. Ils sont actuellement déployés au nord-ouest de l’Irak pour soutenir l’action des troupes syriennes engagées au sol dans la moyenne vallée de l’Euphrate.
« J’étais présent lors de l’arrivée des premiers Caesar sur Erbil en 2016, j’ai donc assisté à la première mission de tir. Cette opération est exigeante et délicate, nous œuvrons nuit et jour pour remplir notre mission. J’espère surtout pouvoir témoigner de la dernière mission de tir qui symbolisera la réussite des 77 pays, dont 4 organisations internationales, engagées au sein de la coalition » témoigne l’adjudant-chef Yann, en mission pour la deuxième fois en Irak au sein de la Strike Cell (cellule de frappe) de la coalition.
Depuis son arrivée en 2016, la TF Wagram appuie les opérations de la coalition menées contre Daech. Plus précisément, elle participe au « pilier appui » de l’opération, » qui consiste à soutenir les troupes engagées au sol contre l’organisation terroriste et à frapper ses capacités militaires. Depuis son déploiement, la TF suit les déplacements des zones d’opération au plus près des combats, et participe désormais, depuis l’Irak, à réduire la dernière emprise territoriale encore aux mains de Daech.
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 nationale 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.’

SITUATION MILITAIRE DU THEATRE
L’opération pour reprendre la poche d’Hajine dans la moyenne vallée de l’Euphrate, lancée le 10 septembre, marque actuellement un temps d’arrêt. Appuyées par la coalition, les forces démocratiques syriennes se réorganisent et consolident leurs positions avant de relancer leur offensive.
En Irak, les opérations de sécurisation des forces de sécurité irakiennes (FSI) se poursuivent. Evitant le contact, Daech tente d’alimenter un sentiment d’insécurité par des actions clandestines ciblant indistinctement les FSI ou la population irakienne.
ACTIVITE DE LA FORCE
La Task Force (TF) Wagram appuie l’offensive des forces démocratiques syriennes contre Daech dans la région d’Hajine.

[French MoD publish article on the CAESAR gun, used by Task Force Wagram. Deployed in Iraq since the summer of 2016, the CAESAR gun – truck equipped with an artillery system- is equipped with a 155 mm gun, eight meters long, mounted on the rear platform of a truck. This 18-tonne weapon system, with a firing rate of six rounds per minute, can reach a target up to 38 km.]
‘CHAMMAL : le canon CAESAR en première ligne contre Daech
Mise à jour : 26/11/2018
Déployé en Irak depuis l’été 2016, le canon CAESAR (camion équipé d’un système d’artillerie) constitue un outil indispensable à la lutte contre Daech au sein de l’Operation Inherent Resolve.
Le canon CAESAR est équipé d’un canon de 155 mm, de huit mètres de long, monté sur plate-forme arrière d’un camion. Ce système d’armes de 18 tonnes, d’une cadence de tir de six coups par minute, permet d’atteindre une cible jusqu’à 38 km. La cabine de l’équipage peut recevoir une mitrailleuse de 12,7 mm, télé-opérée depuis l’intérieur du véhicule. Chaque canon comprend un système de chargement automatique avec une dotation de trente obus. Il est mis en œuvre par un équipage de cinq artilleurs. Le CAESAR permet d’assurer un appui feu puissant, précis et immédiat.
Entrés en service en 2008, les canons CAESAR ont déjà eu l’occasion de démontrer leur performance et leur fiabilité sur d’autres théâtres d’opérations. « Si la finalité d’emploi est la même sur les différents théâtres de projection, puisqu’en Irak nous participons au pilier appui de l’opération Chammal, l’environnement est en revanche totalement différent. Ici nous sommes pleinement intégrés au sein de la coalition : nous n’agissons pas en franco-français. De plus, en Syrie, il n’y a pas de troupes françaises au sol, contrairement aux précédents engagements en Afghanistan et au Mali » ajoute le capitaine Luc.
Transportable par les airs et polyvalent, le CAESAR est une arme beaucoup plus mobile qu’un obusier classique. Sa rapidité d’emploi est inégalable : « En cas d’urgence, le CAESAR peut être mis en place en une minute seulement, le temps de le sortir de son hangar, de le positionner et d’ajuster les tirs » explique le capitaine Luc, intégré au sein de la Strike Cell (cellule de frappe) de la coalition. « Ainsi il peut se déplacer, tirer et rentrer vers une position sécurisée en un temps adapté au tempo des opérations ».
Près de 120 militaires français sont actuellement déployés, en Irak, au sein de la Task Force Wagram, pour armer les trois canons CAESAR présents depuis le lancement de l’offensive sur Mossoul en octobre 2016. Depuis la libération de cette ville du nord de l’Irak le 10 juillet 2017, la TF Wagram accompagne la campagne de coalition dans sa lutte contre Daech.
Les artilleurs français tirent actuellement, depuis une position au nord-ouest de l’Irak, sur la dernière emprise de Daech située dans la moyenne vallée de l’Euphrate, en Syrie. Leur objectif est d’appuyer l’action des forces démocratiques syriennes engagées au sol.
Parfaitement intégrée au sein de la coalition, la Task Force Wagram est actuellement engagée aux côtés de l’artillerie américaine et irakienne dans les combats contre Daech, elle a réalisé plus de 2 100 missions de tir depuis 2016.
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 nationale 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.’
From French MoD on November 29th:
[From Nov 21st-27st, France report that Task Force Wagram carried out 62 firing missions (35 lighting, 27 destruction) from Iraq territory. Aircraft carried out 16 sorties and two strikes.]
