During the recent bloody clashes in Syria between government forces and supporters of former President Bashar al-Assad, more than 8,000 Syrians found refuge at the Russian military base in Khmeimim. This was stated during a briefing by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, speaking about Russia's involvement in resolving the situation in Syria.

"Our military provided shelter to more than 8,000 Syrians. These were mainly women and children who sought refuge from reprisals," Zakharova specified.

"This is the best answer to the question about Russia's real contribution to the fate of the Syrian people," Zakharova summed up, expressing hope that those responsible for what happened in Syria will be punished.
