DEAR FRIENDS,
Due to popular demand, SouthFront released a detailed summary of military and political developments in Syria since the start of the Russian military operation to present
This video summary was released on August 11 and had the length of 92 minutes. Previously, SouthFront released a documentary on the Houthis and the war in Yemen, which had the length of 61 minutes.
Despite high complexity of this work, SouthFront continued providing daily coverage of the key military and diplomatic developments from around the world, including our Syria war report videos.
SouthFront did all this work in a complicated environment.
Less than 2 hours after the release of our new video “Russian Military Campaign in Syria 2015-2018“ it was placed behind an age restriction because it allegedly includes “violent or graphic content that appears to be posted in a shocking, sensational, or disrespectful manner”. The age-restriction clearly impacts a possible reach of the video because it does not allow people without YouTube accounts to watch it.
SouthFront immediately appealed this decision and YouTube found that the video includes no graphic content. However, the age-restriction remained because the video “may not be appropriate for a general audience”.
Summing up: The video does not violate any YouTube Community Guidelines, but despite this, a manual decision was made to age-restrict the video in order to limit its reach to the general audience. This situation can be considered as another example of censorship imposed against alternative media and an independent point of view.
SouthFront has repeatedly faced various sophisticated attacks aimed at censoring the channel on YouTube [systematic ‘false flagging’ and other hostile actions] or damaging its website. The recent developments on YouTube may indicate that a new pre-planned campaign may be launched against the project soon.
Thanks to support from the audience and our partners, South Front has overcome a number of difficulties and is ready to face new ones. However, the situation remains complicated.
In August, SouthFront so far collected about 17% of the minimal budget needed to continue the project. Without the minimal budget, SouthFront will not be able to continue its work at the same level as it did before.

Dear friends,
SouthFront is at the final stage of production of the sophisticated documentary on the conflict in Syria. It will have a length of over one hour and will provide a comprehensive overview of the conflict from the start of the Russian military operation in the country in 2015.
The documentary will include seven main parts:
1. INTRODUCTION & STARTING POINT
2. GOALS, FORCES AND FACILITIES
3. MILITARY DEVELOPMENTS
4. RECONCILIATION, HUMANITARIAN AND SECURITY OPERATIONS
5. INTERNATIONAL REACTION AND PROPAGANDA
6. DIPLOMACY
7. CONCLUSION
Currently, the video team finished over 70% of the documentary. This work has been done ignoring all the problems faced by the project last month, including problems with collecting the minimal budget.
The situation in July also remains complicated. So far, SouthFront has collected about 70% [3,509 USD] of the monthly budget needed to continue our work.
The project decisively needs your assistance to make a final effort to collect funds in order to finalize the documentary on Syria and to implement further plans into reality. These plans will include:
1. A new analytical video about new Russian state of the art weapon systems;
2. A military analysis of the Chinese Naval expansion;
3. A documentary on the Turkish-backed factions and Ankara’s strategy in northwestern Syria.
