Russia has withdrawn almost half of its aircraft deployed at the Hmaymim Airbase (part of Bassel Al-Assad international airport).
"“The number of terrorist units has decreased, which allowed us to withdraw almost half of the aircraft based at the Hmeymim airbase,” chief of the Main Operational Directorate Col. Gen. Sergei Rudskoi said at the VI Moscow Conference on International Security.
The withdrawal of these aircraft does not mean the Russians are halting their air campaign, but rather, taking effective measures to limit its hardware inside of Syria."
