Special Operations Forces of Russia, or SOF are strategic-level special forces under the Special Operations Forces Command of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Special Operations Forces of Russia have been involved in Syria, primarily conducting target acquisition for Russian Air Force combat planes as well as for other purposes, such as the training of Syrian government troops, elimination of fighters and destroying critical enemy objects.

The SSO also played a crucial role in the battle for Palmyra in Spring, 2016 and provided support in the Syrian push for Aleppo in the same year.
