Homs province: SOHR sources have reported that members of the Russian military police stole diesel from T4 airbase in the eastern countryside of Homs and offered it on black markets in north Homs countryside.

 

Reliable SOHR sources have confirmed that the Russian forces steal diesel twice a day, where they take 1,000 up to 1,500 liter in every time and sell them to merchants in northern Homs at double the price which is set by the regime government.
