Hasakah under control… The Syrian army takes over the Al-Shaddadi military base in a strategic move to enhance security in the countryside.

Hasakah Countryside, Syria – The Syrian Ministry of Defense announced that the army has officially taken control of the al-Shaddadi military base in the southern Hasakah countryside. This move comes amid ongoing security challenges and the fight against remaining armed groups. Observers described it as a significant reinforcement of the army’s positions in the region.

The ministry stated that the handover of the base followed the completion of security procedures and the establishment of checkpoints. Furthermore, entrances and exits were monitored to secure the area and stabilize the southern Hasakah countryside, a region that has previously witnessed activity by hostile armed elements.

The location of the al-Shaddadi base is strategic, as it connects vast areas of the northern and southern countryside. It also serves as a crucial hub for the rapid deployment of army forces. According to a well-informed military source, it enhances the ability to protect civilians and property.

This move reflects Damascus’s efforts to consolidate its control over important border areas. It comes after years of conflict that have seen multiple shifts in control of key regions. Moreover, the move supports efforts to gradually restore security and stability in Hasakah Governorate. Military analysts indicate that control of the al-Shaddadi base will give the army a greater capacity to counter remaining threats. It will also facilitate cooperation with local forces to stabilize the region. Furthermore, it will enable the army to monitor movements along the border with Iraq.
