The incident occurred in the north-east of the Syrian Arab Republic in the Qamishli region. Here, on the outskirts of the village of Tell Zahab, there is a checkpoint of government troops, whose soldiers did not let an American military convoy of five armored vehicles and a pickup truck through, belonging to the militia of the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces, to the locality.
A Syrian Arab Army checkpoint intercepts a convoy of US occupying forces, who tried to enter the village of Tell Zahab southeast of the city of Qamishli, and expelled her from the area in the province of Hasakah, SANA reported..
This is not the first time, when U.S. military personnel face opposition in moving across the territory, controlled by Syrian forces. Furthermore, cases have become more frequent, when columns of US Army vehicles are stopped and turned around by local residents.
Currently, the US military controls territories in the north and northeast of Syria in the provinces of Deir ez-Zor., Al Hasakeh and Raqqa. The presence of Americans in these areas is explained very simply - here are the country's largest oil and gas fields..
Official Damascus, like ordinary citizens of Syria, consider Americans occupiers, who are engaged in state piracy and theft of oil. Moscow holds the same position.. The day before, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said during a meeting with his Turkish counterpart Hulusi Akar, that the presence of the US Armed Forces in Syria is a violation of international norms.
In fact, minerals are stolen from a sovereign state - Shoigu commented on the situation.
Besides, as the head of the Russian defense department said, on US bases, located in the US-controlled territories of the SAR, militants are being trained. As a result, terrorist acts against government troops and civilians are periodically carried out in the region.. On the eve of the Deputy Head of the Center for the Reconciliation of Warring Parties in Syria, Captain 1st Rank Yevgeny Gerasimov said, that the terrorists carried out seven attacks in the Idlib de-escalation zone of the SAR.
