Russian forces, deployed in northern Syria, take control of the until recently greater US military base. in the province of Aleppo. As reported by the local portal Al-Masdar News on Friday , the Russian Army has taken the Sarrin air base, located near the city of Ain Al-Arab (known as Kobani), in the northern province of Aleppo, which was recently abandoned by American troops. "At this time, Russian sappers are watching and cleaning the buildings, if explosive substances remain, and in general, if there is any surprise for us here," said Damir Poljak, an inspector of the Russian military police. In turn, the Russian Ministry of Defense has reported that this military facility will be used to create a humanitarian aid distribution center for residents of northern Syria. The Russian Portfolio has also published a video that shows how several Mi-35M helicopters arrive at the base and Russian military police officers deploy in various parts of it. A recording captured inside the base reflects signs that US forces had to leave the place quickly, leaving food and personal equipment. The first Russian helicopters arrived in the north of the Levantine country at the end of October and landed at the Tabqa air base , located in Aleppo, and also abandoned by the Americans. The recovery of this base comes after the US president, Donald Trump, ordered last October to take troops out of his country from northern Syria before an attack by Turkey on the Arab country. Along the same lines, US forces withdrew from three bases located near the border with Turkey. However, shortly after Washington decided to deploy soldiers, with logistic and military equipment, in northeastern Syria, under the pretext of what it called "protecting" the oil fields of the Arab country . https://www.hispantv.com/noticias/siria/442417/rusia-base-eeuu-alepo
