Syrian Army deploys T-90 tanks in the battle for Aleppo

In a bid to fend off ongoing terrorists attack on western Aleppo, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has deployed its most elite soldiers and most advanced armored vehicles.

While a massive convoy of Tiger Forces arrived in Aleppo yesterday, the Desert Hawks Brigade has also joined the battle for Aleppo. The latter SAA unit brought with it several  T-90 tanks as transpires of the footage below.

The T-90 tank first saw action in late 2015 on the battlefield of southern Aleppo, but has also been observed on the SAA’s frontline near Palmyra and western Raqqa.
