Feb 05 2025

ARK New.. The International Coalition is reinforcing its military presence in Syria both on the ground and in the air, having deployed multiple reinforcements to its bases in the country over the past few days.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, coalition forces continue to expand their presence in eastern Syria, conducting a series of military exercises aimed at enhancing defensive capabilities and preparing for potential security threats.

At the beginning of this month, two aircraft arrived at the Kharab al-Jir base near Rmelan, north of Hasaka, over a two-day period. The planes carried advanced weaponry, ammunition, and military equipment, all delivered under aerial protection provided by fighter jets and helicopters.

Additionally, on February 1 and 2, military exercises were conducted at the Al-Wazir base in northern Hasaka, involving live ammunition and advanced weaponry.

Further drills took place at the Conoco gas facility base in eastern Deir Ez-zour, also using live ammunition. These exercises were supported by U.S. helicopter patrols to enhance coordination and combat readiness.
