"HQ 137th Artillery Base"
close to the airport (marked as "Deir Ezzor Airbase") ... that account posted ISIL pictures (I wouldn't!) showing a clear view of the airport (from what I figured, Turdah Mountain overlooks the town of Deir Ezzor):
... and most recently a pro-Government Twitter account has said ISIL after the bombing took over the base which is marked below (in a very old "peto lucem" which is otherwise unrelated) as

Point of order there Jura, it was a Syrian Red Crescent convoy, not UN.
I have actually seen the footage of the strike. I seemed to notice quite a few secondaries, which is surprising for Baby Milk and Bandages!

My country is the Netherlands and it took part in the shameful destruction of the Libyan state and economy and did it in support of Saudi and Qatari sponsored terrorists. What human rights were served?In the right stuff according an incontestable decision for human right especially.
No dictator in France

Do you have a link to the footage please?
I originally watched a few seconds of footage on Channel 4 and then BBC news.
After quite a search, I have finally found a 3 min segment of LiveLeak
After watching it, it is all rather confused and indistinct, but it definitely looks like secondaries to me.
Will value your opinion

I can not make out of anything from the video.
What I can see and hear are the following only:
1. explosion in the middle of night.
2. a guy kept shouting the "slogan", does "Syrian Red Crescent" worker do that? It doesn't fit my imagination. And also why shouting that? Cheer? or Anger?
3. There is no identification of what was hit, who was hit, no damage shown.
Did "Syrian Red Crescent" come out and claimed the damage was theirs?

Is that all the 'evidence' people have?
Screw the secondaries, what about the primary? Just what evidence does anyone have pointing this as Russia or Syria's doing?
Seems like everyone is taking it as given that this was an air strike with zero evidence, other than unverifiable claims by US officials unwilling to give their names.
You'd think if the US had any smoking gun linking this attack conclusively to Russia or Syria, they couldn't show the world fast enough.
The 'eye witness' accounts of the attack are all over the place, and actually contradicts the US government version of events.
The US is claiming two Russian Su24s in the skies in the area at the time of the attack were responsible, and that the attack was too 'sophisticated' to be the Syrian government. But the news are filled with clips of people claiming to have seen helicopters and barrel bombs (in the pitch black), with some even claiming to be giving a blow by blow of conversations between Syrian helicopter pilots and ground control.
Also, for all the people lining up to show video of the aftermath, I have seen no video evidence of the actual moment the convoy was hit. Odd given how long these same witnesses are claiming the attack went on for.
I remember thinking at the time this story first broke that the timing of this attack was pretty serendipitous for the US, helping to entirely shift the focus and blame from their own oh so recent and damning air strike calamity.
This is shaping up to be a textbook bait and switch false flag operation, with the US government and western media going out of their way to look past all the glaring holes and inconsistencies so they can 'fall' for it.
