The Syrian army has successfully taken control of the Al-Tanf military base, which was previously managed by American forces for ten years. This base, located strategically in southeastern Syria near the borders with Jordan and Iraq, was a key asset during the fight against ISIS and also served as a training center for Syrian rebels amidst the ongoing civil war that began in 2011 against President Bashar al-Assad. The shift in control comes as the United States completes a planned withdrawal from the region, marking the end of an era of American military presence in a critical area.
