A squad sized unit of conscripted soldiers from the Syrian Arab Army find themselves being shredded by an opposition ATGM after they huddle out in the open.
Believe it or not, this footage was recorded in February of 2020. By this point in the conflict, the Syrian Arab Army had already been dealing with mass casualties from anti-tank guided missile systems for almost four years straight. Even with all of that experience, it doesn't appear that the fighters on the Regime side of the fence have figured out that they can't just stand out in the open anymore, and this footage is evidence of that simple fact.
It's strange to me that they haven't even attempted to develop any anti ATGM warfare tactics. There's no way that this threat isn't something that their higher echelons of command aren't tracking this threat, and there's no way that they haven't been, at the very least, sending out hunter-killer teams to eliminate these groups to prevent future mass casualty situations. At least, that's what you'd think. I've seen absolutely no evidence of this being the case however.
