Photo gallery: Syria's Mazzeh air base destroyed, abandoned

Strategically located in the south edge of Damascus, the Mazzeh air base was destroyed by Israeli airstrikes after the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime more than a week ago. The airport was used by the Syrian army during the entire 13 years civil war that engulfed the country. The remains of aircraft and air defense air systems are still scattered around the air base, but some military equipment remains intact.
