Syrian Defense Minister Murhaf Abu Qasra introduced Saturday the merger of all navy items beneath the umbrella of the Ministry of Defense to unify the navy construction inside a single institutional framework.
“In light of the importance of institutional work, we stress the necessity for the remaining small military groups to join the ministry within 10 days of this announcement, as part of the ongoing unification and organization efforts,” Abu Qasra introduced in a sequence of posts on X.
He affirmed that “any delay in this regard will require appropriate action in accordance with the applicable laws.”
On Dec. 24, all factions in Syria agreed with President Ahmad al-Sharaa to dissolve and combine beneath the Ministry of Defense, throughout a gathering in Damascus.
Bashar Assad, Syria’s chief for practically 25 years, fled to Russia on Dec. 8, ending the Baath Party regime, which had been in energy since 1963.
Al-Sharaa, who led anti-regime forces to oust Assad, was declared president for a transitional interval in late January.
