This video is a news report by the Beirut-based Al-Mayadeen Tv surrounding the trilateral military summit that brought together the heads of the Syrian, Iraqi and Iranian armies, which was held in the Syrian capital Damascus on 18/03/2019.
While the stated aim of the summit was to boost joint efforts against terrorist groups in the region, many observers also see this summit as a sign of the growing political, military, and economic convergence of the so-called ‘Resistance Axis’ in the region.
The 'Resistance Axis' broadly refers to a strategic anti-Israel/anti-US imperialism alliance composed of, but not limited to, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, Iraq's Hashed al-Shaabi, Yemen's Ansarullah, and various Palestinian armed factions.
