    AAD Connect syncs them just fine: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/whatis-azure-ad-connect
    Or do you mean something else?

    As michev mentioned above, we could use AAD connect to help us sync the objects in AD.

    You could also refer to this link to learn more about Office 365 + AD Connect: Manage Groups, including the scenarios with and without Exchange on-premise

    You can sync AD security groups to Azure AD with AAD connect tool and you can convert Distribution list(s) to Office 365 groups.
