Syrian Forces Seize Rmeilan Military Base After U.S. Coalition Withdrawal

DEFENSE

Syrian forces have taken control of the Rmeilan military base in Hasakah province after the withdrawal of U.S.-led coalition troops. This base, also known as Kharab al-Jir, is located near the Iraqi border.

The Syrian government has expanded its presence in northeastern Syria, previously controlled by Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces. An agreement reached earlier this year allows for the gradual integration of Kurdish civil and military structures into the Syrian state. Additionally, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has appointed Kurdish leader Siban Hamo as an assistant to the defense minister, indicating efforts to implement the integration deal.
