Recruiting or training Syrians?
On June 8, 2024, Russian forces held joint military exercises with the Syrian army at the Tartus port, showcasing advanced air defense systems in a simulated attack. While these exercises appeared routine, they carried deeper implications, including the recruitment and training of Syrians to support Russia’s military endeavors, particularly in Ukraine. Division 25, known for its allegiance to Russia, played a pivotal role, highlighting Moscow’s strategic use of Syrian human resources amidst the ongoing geopolitical tensions. The exercise also served as a signal to international observers of Russia’s readiness to defend its interests in Syria.
