Baloch separatists release IED highlight reel
This video is currently trending on Baluchistan separatist social media channels, and it highlights the various instances of improvised explosive device use against Pakistani government troops and infrastructure, as well as hits against Chinese development firms. Some of the familiar clips appear to go back years, when there were several independent insurgent groups. Currently, many of them are united under the Baluchistan Liberation Army (BLA).

Wild footage coming out of Haiti shows what appears to be a killdozer being utilized by a Kenyan-lead multi-national police force during a raid against the infamous Haitian gang leader known as Barbecue. Reports on the raid right now are sporadic, mostly coming from unverified sources, but according to those reports the raid was against the Gang Leader's compound. It is not clear if Barbecue was killed or captured during the raid, and many speculate that he was able to escape the situation.
5 views / TodayHouthi smugglers have a bad day
Footage recorded by Saudi troops conducting interdiction operations at the Saudi-Yemen border captures the moment a pair of Houthi smugglers on a motorcycle are ambushed with an explosive device. It is not uncommon for the Houthis to attempt smuggling ammunition and explosives across the Saudi-Yemen border on motorcycles, and this footage shows one such instance in which the smuggling operation didn't go as planned.
10 views / TodayHouthi uses his head to find Saudi sniper
Footage published to multiple social media platforms captures the moment a Saudi sniper takes a shot at the Houthi Rebel who is trying to find him with a pair of binoculars. While the sniper shot appears to impact low and left of the spotter, it's incredibly likely that the fragmentation from the rock still embedded itself deep into the Houthi Rebel's face.
17 views / TodaySudanese fighters in the street
This footage shows Sudanese fighters firing down the street at a supposed opposing force of RSF. It's unclear whether these are official Sudanese military or a local militia defending against RSF- both instances are common and uniforms/identifying markers seem fairly rare among both. Apart from a fighter shoulder-firing a recoilless rifle most typically used mounted on a tripod (which is admittedly equal parts ridiculous and sublime), the body language, smiles, and cell phones look like they'd belong in a block party elsewhere.
10 views / TodayRebel nearly killed by air strike
Cell phone footage originally published to Facebook captures the moment an airstrike impacts directly on top of a rebel fighter in Myanmar. The footage was filmed in the Kachin state of Myanmar, which is the most northern province in the country, sharing a border with China.
12 views / TodaySudanese helicopters attack RSF positions
Cell phone footage recorded by an infantry fighter with the Sudanese military captures a section of Sudanese rotary wing assets targeting an RSF position in Jabal Muya. According to the source of the footage, the Mi-24s were using a technique that the pilots learned from watching combat operations in the Russo-Ukraine war where the rockets are lobbed in the general direction of the enemy.
8 views / TodayTechnical tour of fighting in Nile State, Sudan
Although the faction to which the cameraman belongs was not disclosed, this video shows some of the destruction from a recent clash between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a rebellious splinter group of the military that has been responsible for numerous human rights violations and massacres. RSF is also purported to have ties to Wagner Group. This glimpse of the aftermath comes from the Nile region. The burning wreckage and technicals driving at speed (including one being towed) across the desert give a sort of Mad Max impression. Historically, one might draw parallels to the desert truck raids of the SAS in World War Two insofar as appearances, but frankly, neither faction deserves the comparison in efficacy or motive.
8 views / TodayAnti-junta forces intercept government boats with recoilless rifle
Earlier in the week, I released a video of a People's Defense Force element attacking a junta boat with what I assumed was a field-expedient cannon or directional explosive. There have been other recorded instances of PDF's using that strategy earlier in the year. This longer video, showing the same attack as well as others, reveals that the PDF was using a Carl Gustaf recoilless rifle to ambush the boats. Along with the evolution of small arms from slam-bang shotguns to jungle-built AK's, this demonstrates how quickly the anti-junta units adopt and adapt to newer, more complex firepower.
13 views / TodayClassic IED initiated ambush in Myanmar
Footage released to Facebook by members of the Brave Heart Army and several other Anti-Junta factions in Myanmar shows a classic IED initiated ambush against a military convoy near the city of Monywa. Footage like this, while seemingly boring, paints an interesting picture of the on-going insurgency and Civil War in Myanmar that is worth keeping an eye on. For anyone interested in insurgent warfare, the groups here have successfully found a way to blend modern warfighting tactics with classic guerilla techniques to achieve outstanding success against a force that is, on paper, superior in every way.

Members of the Taung Nyo Column conduct a hasty ambush against military forces in Thanbyuzayat. The south-eastern Myanmar town is the located in the Mon State, and is currently the host of frequent guerilla attacks against military forces.
10 views / TodayHouthis bag 13th MQ-9 Reaper since October 2023
This footage, provided by a Houthi media outlet, shows the shootdown and wreckage of an ostensibly American MQ-9 Predator drone. It was downed by a loitering SAM- likely an Iranian missile known as a "358" which is made of mostly commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. The "358" therefore has a value of around $50k-$100k, versus a conservatively estimated $15M per Reaper. This is the third Reaper shot down in a week, and the 13th since October 2023. While losing drones is infinitely better than losing pilots, the frequency with which the US is allowing their MQ-9 fleet to be impugned is a source of ongoing debate regarding expense and strategy.
9 views / TodayCitizen militia fends off RSF attack in Myanmar
Cell phone footage released to Snapchat by a person in El Fasher, Sudan captures a civilian militia thwarting an attack by the Sudanese RSF. According to reports coming out of the region, every citizen in the city with access to a firearm joined the Sudanese 6th Infantry Division in defending their town from the RSF assault, which caused the assault to get bogged down and ultimately fail.
6 views / TodayIraqi Police enforce speed limit with artillery in Mosul
Footage recorded at the beginning of the Battle of Mosul captures an Iraqi Police unit using artillery to conduct a preparatory bombardment of Islamic State positions inside of the city of Mosul. For a brief period in time the speed limit in that area was entirely enforced by artillery rounds.
8 views / TodayGuerilla fighters ambush street checkpoint in flip flops
Members of the Monywa Anti-Junta faction have released footage of a recent guerilla attack against a small military checkpoint. According to the PDF's Facebook page, the checkpoint was a small operation consisting of just a few Soldiers who were searching vehicles in the city.
9 views / TodayIraqi tribesman hunt ISIS in the desert
This video, provided by Al Jighaifa (also rendered "Jighayfa) tribesmen, shows them using Toyota pickups and technicals to chase an ISIS-owned 7x7 across the desert in Northern Iraq. The camera man lays it on thick with the SAW. Other tribesmen join in, shooting at the truck as it speeds away. While the damage to the truck and casualties are unknown, I imagine a day spent like this is a bit like a day fishing- even a bad one ain't that bad
14 views / TodayCameraman taken out by ATGM strike on BMP-1
Recently recorded footage coming out of Sudan captures the moment an RSF anti-tank guided missile attack on a Sudanese BMP-1 takes out the cameraman. From the footage, it's unclear, but it appears as if fragmentation from the strike managed to also impact the area that the cameraman was located at.
14 views / TodayAnti-junta guerillas ambush maritime vessels
Footage released to Facebook by Anti-Junta sources in Myanmar shows a large scale ambush against government maritime vessels near Homalin Township. The guerilla forces stated that they attacked 15 Myanmar Naval vessels in this footage, however some of the ships appear to be small civilian class logistics vessels, and not military or naval watercraft.
