During Syrian Civil Waredit
The airbase was used extensively by the Syrian Arab Air Force during the Syrian Civil War.
On 18 May 2018, a series of massive explosions at the airbase reportedly resulted in the death of 11 people and dozens others injured or missing.[3] According to Syrian military officials, technical failure inside the depots had caused the incident, while other sources allege it had been triggered by an Israeli airstrike or a sabotage operation by the jihadist group Saraya Al-Jihad, who claimed responsibility soon afterwards.[4]
On 1 March 2020, Turkish drones bombed the 47th brigade which was located in the airbase.[5]
