Consequently, the evacuation covered, in particular, the commanders of the Quds Special Forces of the Revolutionary Guard of Iran and other officials.
Such a move signals a weakening of Iran's position in supporting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The successful offensive of rebel groups, including jihadist groups, has created a threat that Iran is currently unable to contain.
Iran, along with Russia, remained a key ally of Assad during the 13 years of the Syrian Civil War. In addition to supporting the regime, Syria served as a strategic route for supplying weapons to the pro-Iranian Hezbollah group in Lebanon. However, the dynamics of the conflict now call into question Iran's ability to maintain its influence in the region.
