The Syrian government has regained control over all military installations that were formerly occupied by United States forces. This includes the strategic Qasrak air base located in the northeastern governorate of Hasakah. The final convoy of US troops and their equipment departed from this base, signaling the end of the American military presence in the area.
This development comes amid ongoing tensions in northeastern Syria, where US forces had been deployed primarily to counter ISIS and support local Kurdish-led groups. The withdrawal marks a notable change in the balance of power, as Damascus reasserts its authority over territories that had been under partial foreign control for years.
In a significant development for regional geopolitics, Syria’s full reclamation of these bases could impact future military and diplomatic dynamics involving the US, Turkey, and Kurdish forces. The move may also influence the broader conflict landscape in Syria, potentially altering alliances and control over key resources and territories in the northeast.
