Meanwhile, an armed group calling itself "Buran al-Furat" (Lit. Euphrates Volcano) claimed responsibility for an attack on the Russian military base in Hmeimim, located in Syria’s western Latakia countryside.

In two separate statements published on social media, the group threatened Russia if it did not withdraw from Syria and confirmed that two of its fighters were killed in the assault two days ago.

The reported group launched an attack on the outskirts of the Russian Hmeimim airbase last Tuesday morning, leading to intense clashes with the base’s garrison. Local sources reported that machine guns were used during the fighting.

According to preliminary information, the confrontation resulted in casualties on both sides, including Russian military personnel.
