  • Russia has begun withdrawing a large amount of military equipment and troops from Syria following the ouster of former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, according to two US officials and a western official familiar with the intelligence.

According to a report by MSN, U.S. and Western officials have indicated that the Russian military has started a significant withdrawal from Syria. This move comes after years of Russian military involvement in the Syrian conflict, where Russia has been a key supporter of the Syrian government led by President Bashar al-Assad. The withdrawal includes the removal of troops, military hardware, and the scaling back of air operations. While the exact reasons for this withdrawal are not explicitly stated, it could be linked to Russia's need to reallocate resources due to its ongoing conflict in Ukraine, as well as potential diplomatic shifts or agreements in the region. The reduction in Russian military presence might alter the dynamics of the Syrian conflict, potentially affecting the balance of power and the ongoing peace processes.
