Media: Syria plans to purchase Turkish air defense systems and armored vehicles

Damascus aims to strengthen its armed forces through defense imports from Türkiye, Yeni Şafak newspaper reports.

Syria seeks to increase its defensive capabilities for counterterrorism operations and potential Israeli threats, according to media accounts.

The procurement may be financially supported by Arab Gulf states, with emphasis on purchasing equipment rather than receiving aid-based transfers.

Reports indicate Syria plans to acquire air defense systems, armored vehicles, drones, and artillery systems.
