Iranian military presence in Syria | Official of Iran’s bureau in al-Qamishli secures houses and raises salaries of NDF fighters expelled from Tayy neighbourhood

Al-Hasakah province: Reliable sources have told the Syrian Observatory that the official heading Iran’s bureau in al-Qamishli airbase, known as Haj Ali,  in al-Hasakah countryside has risen the monthly salaries of the fighters of the National Defence Forces (NDF) from 50,000 SYL to 150,000 SYL.

 

SOHR sources have confirmed that Haj Ali has housed over 60 NDF fighters, who had been expelled from Tayy neighbourhood, in al-Villat area which is neighbouring al-Qamishli airbase.

 

This development comes after regime forces gave up NDF, at Russia’s request, which led to the expulsion of these fighters from al-Qamishli city.

 

It is worth noting that the houses and villas which NDF fighters were transported to had been seized earlier by the Iranian, after their inhabitants left them years ago to search for safer areas, after the airbase and surrounding areas had been turned into a military zone.

 

It is also worth noting that nearly ten officials of the Iranians and Hezbollah are located in two posts in al-Qamishli city, they are a post in al-Qamishli airbase and another post near the railway to the south of the airbase.

 

These officials are tasked to supervise and administrate the following military formations:

 

• The Military Security service

 

• The National Defence Forces (NDF)

 

• Ansar Amn al-Dawlah (State Security Supporters)

 

• Ansar al-Amn al-Askari (Military Security Supporters).
