Regime Fighting Position Destroyed by TOW Missile

Members of the Free Syrian Army's 13th Coastal Division utilize a BGM-71 TOW Missile to destroy a poorly placed Syrian Arab Army fighting position near al-Eiss, Syria in 2015.


For those of you who didn't heavily follow the Syrian Civil War, the 13th Coastal Division is one of the good groups inside of the Free Syrian Army. They were a former Syrian Arab Army unit that defected during Arab Spring to stand up to the Assad Regime's reign of terror against the people of Syria. Later, they clashed with both al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. They were one of the first units to be armed by the American Central Intelligence Agency with TOW missiles, and they were also one of the most effective at employing the weapon system throughout Syria.


As time passed, the group later made tight-knight alliances with other groups inside of the Free Syrian Army. These alliances eventually led to the formation of the Free Idlib Army with the Mountain Hawks Brigade and the Northern Division. In 2017, internal fighting inside of the group would lead to some members of the 13th Coastal Division defecting and leaving to join other organizations inside of the Free Syrian Army.
