- the Center said in a statement.
From the Russian side, three armored personnel carriers of the military police BTR-82A participated in this patrol, from the air the passage of the joint patrol column was controlled drones VKS RF. The interaction of the Russian military with the Turkish was carried out through a joint coordination center.
The first patrol along the entire route of the M-4 highway passed without incident. Previously, patrols were carried out along shortened routes due to the threat of an attack by militants. According to the agreement signed by Putin and Erdogan, the Turkish side must form a 12-km security zone along the highway, which is a strategic transport artery of Syria connecting Aleppo with Latakia.
After several attacks by militants, the most recent of which took place recently, the Turks said they would take additional security measures to increase the length of the patrol route of the two countries.
