A US military base in Syria, near the Al Omar oil field, in the province of Deir ez-Zor, was attacked this Wednesday with several missiles, the Al Mayadeen channel reported.
According to a source consulted by the media, a fire broke out in the military installations as a result of the falling projectiles. Likewise, it is detailed that American planes were sighted nearby, a few minutes after the bombing.
The same base had been attacked last week with 15 missiles. Since the beginning of the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Hamas, on October 7, and along with the increase in US support for the Hebrew country, attacks against US military bases in the Middle East have intensified.
Thus, the Pentagon announced this Tuesday that US forces deployed in Iraq and Syria have been subject to 55 attacks in one month, which injured dozens of soldiers. “There were 27 attacks against US forces in Iraq and 28 in Syria,” Sabrina Singh, deputy spokesperson for the Ministry of Defense, declared at a press conference,
To date, some 2,500 US military personnel are stationed in Iraq and nearly 900 are in Syria. With RT
