By the current hour, information about a possible terrorist attack has not received confirmation, although it’s only a few kilometers to the positions of the latter.
So far, no official comments have been received from representatives of the Russian military group in the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic.
Experts do not exclude the possibility that if information about the explosion at the Russian military air base in the El-Kamyshli region is confirmed, then the speech most likely may be connected with a certain incident directly on the territory of the military airfield itself, without any external factors.
