Under the memorandum, civilian facilities—including Hmeimim Airport and Tartous Port’s fourth commercial berth—will gradually return to Syrian state management. Military facilities will be restructured into joint Syrian-Russian training centers rather than operating as traditional military bases. The transition is expected to be completed within three months. Source: SANA
