More photos have surfaced. The tanks are definitely T-62Ms. So far they are being used to secure T-4 airbase.

The blog diana-mihailova has published these photos. Supposedly they were taken at Tartus, a naval base used by the Russian Navy. The tanks seem to be T-55 or T-62 and they have been recently refurbished because there are no traces of damage or even dirt. These vehicles would be for the Syrian Army. Russia retired the T-55 and T-62 back in 2011.
