TL;DR Summary
Following the fall of President Bashar al-Assad, Russia is pulling back some military forces and equipment from Syria but is maintaining its presence at the Hmeimim airbase and Tartous naval facility. Despite the withdrawal of some forces, Russia is not abandoning its strategic bases, which are crucial for its military operations in the region. Discussions with Syria's new rulers about the future of these bases are ongoing, while Russia continues to support Assad, who has been granted asylum in Moscow.
