Original Note:
The claim is incorrect. The deal cancelled by the Syrian authorities is a commercial agreement (dating back to 2019) related to Russian investment in the commercial port of Tartus, and not related to the Tartus' military facility (49-year deal signed in 2017). https://www.alwatanonline.com/%D9%85%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%B1-%D8%AC%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%B1%D9%83-%D8%B7%D8%B1%D8%B7%D9%88%D8%B3-%D9%84%D9%80%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%88%D8%B7%D9%86-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B1%D8%B3%D9%88%D9%85-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC%D9%85/?ocid=Nabd_App
