US smuggles 70 Syrian oil tankers into Iraq

The US occupation forces smuggled two convoys of 70 vehicles from the illegal base of Khrab al-Jir in Hasaka countryside, including tankers loaded with stolen Syrian oil towards Iraqi territory through illegal al-Waleed crossing during the last 24 hours.

Iran Press/Middle East: According to SANA, local sources in al-Suwaydiyah village in al-Yarubiyah countryside said: “A convoy of 44 vehicles, including tankers of stolen Syrian oil, refrigerators, and a number of armored vehicles, left Kharab al-Jir base located in al-Malikiyah area near the Syrian-Iraqi border and headed for north Iraq through illegal al-Waleed crossing.’’

The sources pointed out that the US occupation forces also took out a convoy of 26 vehicles from the same area on Thursday.

The US military and its affiliated terrorist elements have been present illegally in northern and eastern Syria for a long time, and in addition to looting the country's oil and wheat resources, they are taking action against Syrian residents and forces in these areas.

Syrian officials have repeatedly stressed that US actions in Syria constitute "occupation."

The United States is a major supporter of terrorist groups in Syria.

The crisis in Syria began in 2011 with a massive offensive by terrorist groups backed by Saudi Arabia, the United States and their allies to shift the regional equation in favor of the Israel regime.
