Lebanese TV channel: Unidentified people launched a missile attack on two US military bases in eastern Syria
American military bases in eastern Syria came under rocket attack, unknown people fired about 20 rockets at the US military. This is reported by the Lebanese TV channel Al-Mayadeen.
On the evening of Friday, March 24, unidentified people launched a missile attack on US military bases near the Omar and Koniko oil fields in the province of Deir ez-Zor in eastern Syria. In total, according to preliminary information, about 20 missiles were fired at two bases. A partial hit of ammunition on the territory of military bases is reported.
- the TV channel said.
The Americans themselves have not yet commented on what happened, so there is no way to say whether there are any damage and casualties on the territory of military bases. There is also no information on who struck the Americans, although there is nothing to guess here, the confrontation between the United States and Iran continues. Recently, the US military in Syria launched a series of strikes against military formations associated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Pentagon announced that this is a response to the attack of the Iranian drone to a military base. Apparently, this time the "answer" flew to the Americans.
Recall that the forces of the American coalition are illegally in Syria, controlling the largest oil fields in the provinces of Deir ez-Zor, Al-Hasek and Raqqa. The United States does not intend to leave from there, since control over oil allows it to be illegally extracted and sold. As stated in Washington, the United States has "its own zone of interests" in Syria.
