Re: explosion just behind a rebel
Ever this poor elephant stepped on one.   Cool that they hooked him up with a decent prosthetic one though!  |

Yeh, Mortar or artillery round. Wish we could see the aftermath.

Re: explosion just behind a rebel
Looking closely at this, something is not right. Explosion looks like it was edited into video. The guys don't react at all to it and they would for sure. I'm thinking another FSA bullshit video.

Re: explosion just behind a rebel
The explosion wasn't anywhere where they were originally walking; even a dud slow-fire mine needs to be stepped on. Maybe the angle of the camera makes it hard to be certain, but it looks more to me like a mortar going off.

Re: explosion just behind a rebel
There! I was wondering about this being fake myself, but didn't want to say anything until one of you did. You're right! Something does look funny about the explosion. Color seems too...vibrant or something. I smell FSA on this one too!  |

Re: explosion just behind a rebel
With mortars that would have been a very good shot, but highly unlikely with the small target and attrition accountable for expensive rounds. It was most likely a mine.   |
