Global SITREP C4: War in the Caucasus

27 September 2020: "Armenia has declared martial law, and has ordered the total mobilization of its military" - Jerusalem Post headline this morning. Other media inform that the Azeri military has issued similar full mobilization orders. So, for the umpteenth time over the past four decades Armenia and Azerbaijan have initiated combat operations over the Nagorno-Karabakh enclave that has a majority Armenian population within the heartland of Azerbaijan.

Map of the conflict region

This always simmering conflict is of interest because Armenia for certain is one of the nations that will participate within the Ezekiel 38/39 Magog-led military confederation that will attempt to conquer and plunder the State of Israel. Armenia has for many centuries been identified as the ancient land known as Togarmah. The Armenians themselves say they are the descendants of Torgom, a son of Gomer, son of Japheth, who established the "House of Torgom" approximately four millennia ago. So, each time this conflict flares, or any open full-scale warfare within the Caucasus flares up (such as Russia vs Georgia) Eschatology Today perks up and pays attention.

There are to interesting side bars to this. One is that there are several Turkish military units currently in Azerbaijan, some of which have been direct transfers from the war in Syria. For its part Russia has sent military advisers, equipment and mercenary troops into Armenia. It would seem the Russia vs. Turkey zone of contention has extended northward from Syria.

Presently there are reports (unconfirmed) of Azerbaijani aircraft attacking targets in Armenia. Confirmed reports abound of ground combat causing civilian casualties on both sides, and of heavy artillery and armor engagements adding to the carnage. It would appear that both Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as their Turkish and Russian allies were in well advanced stages of preparation for this round of warfare. Turkey is threatening direct intervention against Armenia on the behalf of Azerbaijan.

  2. Yes Sean, I caught an RT report on the fighting and thought of the potential for this to escalate.

  3. UPDATE: The escalation of hostilities has increased each passing hour. Azerbaijan has declared full-scale war and is advancing on new territories in Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenia says Turkish F-16s have attacked their positions. Azeri use of Turkish-made drones is devastating Armenian armor.

  4. UPDATE: there's no sign of a let up in combat operations. Thus far Azerbaijani forces seem to be inflicting more damage than they are receiving. The Nagorno-Karabakh region is referring to itself as the Republic of Artsakh. It's army has suffered dozens upon dozen of casualties primarily due to Azeri drone strikes by what are believed to be well-armed Turkish TB2 drones purchased by Azerbaijan a couple of months ago. Azerbaijan's overwhelming advantage in drone technology has given them a clear upper hand in the early fighting.

  5. Casualties are now estimated to be in the multiple hundreds. So much disinformation makes it a chore to determine fact from fiction. Turkey acting like a jihadist super-state; France and Russia begging for peace.

  6. A lot of people are so caught up in the election and what's going on over that they aren't paying enough attention to what's really prophetically significant. Please keep the updates coming

  7. Back to the war... both sides are using larger and larger rockets to attack each other. New images of big Russian-made Trochka ballistic missiles caught in mid-flight just before impact confirm the war fighting escalation continues.

  8. The OSCE has arranged a ceasefire. How long it holds is unknown as nothing was resolved in the warfare, neither side was victorious.

  9. The ceasefire has collapsed. Armenia and Azerbaijan continue the war over Nagorno-Karabakh, and have moved into combat operations directed against each others homeland territories.
