Al Arabiya: VIDEO: Syrian army brigadier speaks to troops flanked by Russian soldiers
A video surfaced showing Brigadier Suheil al-Hassan, known as the Tiger, speaking to Syrian regime troops in Damascus while being guarded by Russian soldiers.

Al-Hassan was also surrounded by members of the Syrian army who were also on guard.

I first seen this about a week ago, by a post of warsmonitoring ( https://twitter.com/warsmonitoring/status/965209693449850881/photo/1 ) so it's definitely not a new video, it's happened during the SAA force buildup. Russians/PMCs/SAA SF units guard him or not, I do not see it relevant, as long as he is protected, and so far he was and is ( many of his officers are not that lucky ). Also calling him responsible for the recent fighting in Damascus is untrue, it's just that he and some of his forces were transferred there and he takes a role in the battle, nothing more. Of how we got to the current situation in this part of Damascus is another, very long story that just a prime example of whats wrong with the rebels from a military point of view.
