Syria seeks Russia's help to defend itself against Israel

TEHRAN, Aug. 12 (MNA) – Abu Mohammad al-Julani regime has asked Russia to resume military police patrols in the country's southern provinces, according to reports released by a Russian media outlet.

Kommersant, citing sources, reported that the initiative is aimed at deterring Israel, which occupied part of southern Syria in December 2024.

According to Damascus, the Russian presence "will reduce the intensity of Israeli operations."

The return of Russian patrols to the northeast has already been recorded in the Al-Qamishli region, according to the report.
