Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said a battery of S-300 air defense missile launchers has been sent to Russia’s naval base in Tartus. He stressed that the move is intended to ensure the safety of Russian ships off Syrian shores and its base in Tartaus. Last year, Russia deployed its newest air defense system S-400 to Syria. According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, S-400 systems and short-range missiles will remain on permanent combat duty in Syria.
