Violent explosions rocked a US occupation Army base in Al-Jebsa oil fields in eastern Syria, Sputnik reported Wednesday.

The Russian agency quoted informed sources as saying that they heard strong explosions in the northern and western countryside of the oil city of Al-Shaddadeh, which includes the largest US base in Al-Hasakah Governorate.

Sputnik pointed out that the explosions coincided with an intense overflight of warplanes and helicopters of the so-called "International Coalition" that took off from its base in Al-Shaddade and fired flares, as information reported that the base was being targeted with missiles.

Sources revealed to Al Mayadeen that the missiles that targeted the US base in Al-Jabsa were launched from Tal Al-Shayer near the Iraqi border, an SDF-controlled region.

One of the missiles fell 200 meters from an aircraft runway within the base, and two close to the residential area, according to the sources. 

Earlier, the US Army reinforced its bases surrounding the city of Al-Hasakah with two new convoys of military equipment and armored vehicles, coinciding with the understandings concluded in the region, which led to the expansion of the Syrian Army's spread in the north and east of the country, especially near the Turkish border, according to Sputnik.

What is the US doing in Syria?

Besides being an occupation that backs armed groups for its own operations and agenda in the region, the US occupation forces continue to steal Syrian oil by smuggling it from their bases in Syria to their bases in Iraq.

Convoys of tens of vehicles, including tankers loaded with stolen oil from oil fields occupied by US forces in Syria, are frequently seen crossing toward northern Iraq, in addition to trucks loaded with military equipment.

The US interference in the crisis-stricken Middle Eastern country continues to be exposed, from occupation to military agenda and the theft of oil.

US Forces smuggle dozens of oil tankers out of Syria

The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported Saturday that 35 US vehicles, including oil tankers and a military escort convoy, made their way out of Syria heading toward Iraq through the illegal Mahmoudiya and Al-Waleed crossings.

According to SANA, a convoy of 35 vehicles with tankers loaded with stolen Syrian oil from fields controlled by the US occupation forces accompanied by several covered trucks traveled through the unauthorized Mahmoudiya crossing that the US occupation forces allocated more than two years ago to steal Syrian oil, one day after they smuggled 14 tankers loaded with Syrian oil.

It is noteworthy that US forces control about 90% of Syria’s oil-producing territory, depriving the government of its most significant source of fuel and income.

Some local reports claim that US forces smuggle not only oil out of the country but also indispensable food supplies.
