History of the Aravis Special Forces 4x4 armored vehicle Syria

The presence of French special forces in Manbij is no longer a mystery. All the more so since, on April 26, Pentagon chief James Mattis indicated that 50 additional French commandos had just been sent to Syria to reinforce their American counterparts in the vicinity of this locality, controlled since August 2016 by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which had ousted Islamic State jihadists from it.

 According to Sharfan Darwish, spokesman for the local military council of the FDS, US special forces established a new base in Manbij shortly after the offensive launched by Turkey against Syrian Kurdish militias based in the Afrin canton in northwestern Syria. The model presented is a field adaptation, for and by French special forces, with atypical camouflage and a few modifications such as the addition of a Mag 7.62 machine gun, a satellite antenna and new ventilation.
