Iran revoked permission for Russian airplanes to use an Iranian base for launching airstrikes in Syria, a week after having granted Russia access.  Russian Tupolev and Sukhoi bombers had started flying missions into Syria from the Hamadan base in western Iran, the first time foreign forces had been based in Iran since World War II.  Iran's Defense Minister, Brig. Gen. Hossein Dehghan, criticized Russia's excessive publicity for the basing deal.
