Khmeimim, Russian military aerodrome in Latakia Governorate, Syria
Khmeimim is a military air base on Syria's Mediterranean coast with multiple runways and extensive defense installations. The facility accommodates various aircraft types and includes maintenance areas for planes and ground equipment.
The base was established in 2015 through an agreement between Russia and Syria, significantly expanding military presence in the region. This move strengthened the military partnership between both nations.
The facility represents the intersection of Russian and Syrian military cooperation, with personnel from both nations working together in various operations.
The base has limited public accessibility and is a strictly controlled military installation. Visits are not possible as it remains an active operational facility.
This installation serves as Russia's primary Mediterranean airfield, equipped with S-400 missile systems and advanced radar detection capabilities.
