Syrian military air base near the Jordanian border.

Location
Buraq, Syria
Khalkhalah Air Base is a Syrian Arab Air Force installation located in the Sweida Governorate of southern Syria, near the town of Buraq. The base has served as a strategic military facility given its position in the southern region of the country, not far from the borders with Jordan and Israel. During the Syrian Civil War, Khalkhalah became a strategically significant site, reportedly used by Syrian government forces and, according to various reports, by Iranian-backed militias operating in the region. The base has been the subject of multiple reported airstrikes attributed to Israel targeting military assets and personnel at the facility. Khalkhalah is a purely military installation with no scheduled commercial air services. It is assigned the ICAO identifier OS69 but has no IATA code, reflecting its non-commercial status.
