Russian President Vladimir Putin makes unannounced visit to Syria, meets Assad

Russian President Vladimir Putin has made an unannounced visit to Syria to hold official talks with Bashar Assad. The two counterparts addressed the military situation in the country, according to the Kremlin.

The visit comes at a time of intensified regional tension, when Assad’s other main military ally Iran has said it will retaliate against the United States for the killing of an Iranian general, reported Reuters.
Syrian state news agency SANA displayed a photo of Putin smiling as he shook Assad’s hand and stated they had listened to a military presentation by the head of Russian forces in Syria.
