Yeah, I have no idea why they did that! Couldn't of they just ordered the Apaches to get into shot like they did with the video above. Perplexing.

The article is pretty accurate. The Sakr family or rockets was and is still produced by the Sakr Factory which belongs to the Arab Organisation of Industrialization. Variants of this family were exported to multiple partners and friendly nation for the best part of half a century (although the legacy or old variants differ from the ones now in use in Egypt). So, as usual IS captured these rockets from the Syrian regime and is using them.

Egypt cut all ties with the Syrian regime after the civil war erupted and its relationship with Syria was cold as a result of the peace treaty with Israel.
