Jihadist insurgents find themselves under a prolonged, accurate Russian artillery bombardment in Syria's mountainous Latakia governorate, and a direct hit on their bunker results in at least one of them being severely wounded. Although the casualty is still alive in the video, the lack of medically-trained individuals combined with the remote location suggest a grim fate for the wounded man.

The footage is years old and the "Islam Awazi" (Voice of Islam) watermark suggests these militants are members of the Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) Uyghur Muslim terror group. Interestingly, this group formed in China, but has since fought in several Islamist hotspots across central Asia and the Middle East.

TIP fighters fought alongside the Taliban and Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) against the American-led ISAF units in Afghanistan. They also became a formidable opponent to the Russian-backed Assad regime in Syria. More recent reports indicate that Turkey facilitated the TIP in deploying from Syria to the Nagorno-Karabakh War (2020) to support Azerbaijan against Armenia.
