Syrian military air base in the eastern desert region.

Location

Tiyas, Syria

Tiyas Air Base, also known as T-4 Air Base, is a major Syrian Arab Air Force installation located in the Homs Governorate of central Syria, approximately 150 kilometers east of the city of Homs. It sits near the town of Tiyas in the Syrian desert, close to the ancient ruins of Palmyra. The base has been a significant strategic asset during the Syrian Civil War and has reportedly hosted Russian and Iranian military assets alongside Syrian forces. It has been the target of multiple airstrikes, including attacks attributed to Israel, due to its alleged use by Iranian-backed forces. Tiyas is a purely military installation with no commercial aviation operations. It features multiple runways and hardened aircraft shelters, making it one of the larger air bases in Syria.
