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. 

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.
