Russia building airstrip in Syria’s Latakia

Beirut // Russia is building an airstrip in a stronghold of the Syrian regime and has brought hundreds of technicians and military advisers to the site, a monitoring group said on Sunday.

The claim comes as Washington accuses Moscow of a military build-up in Syria, where Russia has backed President Bashar Al Assad’s regime against an uprising of more than four years.

“Russian forces are building a long runway capable of accommodating large aircraft near the Hmaymeen military airport in Latakia province,” the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The monitor, which relies on a network of civilian, military and medical sources inside Syria, said “the Russians are preventing Syrians, whether military or civilian, from entering the area where they are building the runway”.

“In recent weeks, military airplanes arrived in Hmaymeen carrying military equipment and hundreds of Russian military advisers and technicians,” the group said.

The Observatory’s director, Rami Abdel Rahman, said sources also reported that Russia was enlarging the Hamadiyeh airport in Tartus province, another regime stronghold that is south of Latakia.

The airport is currently used by aircraft that spray crops with pesticide.

Russia is a staunch ally of the regime in Damascus and maintains a naval facility in Tartus province.

It has made no secret of its support for Mr Al Assad’s government, including continuing weapons supplies, but has rejected claims of a recent military build-up inside Syria.

But US officials this week said two tank-landing ships had arrived recently at the Tartus base, and that at least four transport flights had landed at an airport in Latakia.

They also reported the arrival of dozens of Russian naval infantry and the installation of temporary housing sufficient for “hundreds of people” at Latakia airport, along with portable air-traffic-control equipment.

On Friday, Cypriot officials said Russia had issued an alert for Cyprus to divert aircraft next week because it is planning military exercises off the Syrian coast.

And on Saturday, Syrian state media reported the arrival of two Russian planes at the airport in Latakia, saying they were carrying humanitarian aid.

State media have reported the arrival of Russian humanitarian aid previously, but the flights were the first mentioned since the claims of a military build-up.

More than 240,000 people have been killed in Syria since the conflict began with anti-government protests in March 2011.

The government has lost large swathes of territory to rebels including extremist groups such as Al Qaeda’s Syrian affiliate and the ISIL.
