The 25th Special Mission Forces Division, colloquially known by their former name Tiger Forces (ar|قُوَّات النِّمْر; Quwwat al-Nimr), is an elite special forces unit of the Syrian Army under the charge of the commander Major General Saleh Abdullah.[2] It was formed in late 2013 and functions primarily as an offensive unit in the Syrian Civil War.[3] It has been described as a "hot commodity for any government offensive", but their relatively small numbers make it difficult to deploy them to multiple fronts at once.[4]
