US Troops Smuggle 70 Oil Tankers Out of Syria
EDITOR2 MAY 23, 2022
US Forces Have Smuggled Hundreds Of Oil Tankers Out Of Syria Over The Past Few Months.
US occupation forces continue to loot Syrian oil from the northern Al-Jazeera region of Syria’s Hasakah governorate, as a US military convoy of around 70 oil tankers reportedly made their way towards Iraq through the illegal Al-Waleed border crossing on 14 May.
According to local sources in the Al-Yarubiyah countryside, the convoy was accompanied by an additional 15 trucks carrying military equipment as well as six armored vehicles.
A day earlier, 46 US vehicles were reportedly transferred out of Syria through the same border crossing.
US troops and their proxy in northern Syria – the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) – are in control of most of the oil fields in Hasakah and Deir Ezzor and have been regularly smuggling Syrian oil out of the country to sell it abroad.
Dozens of similar US convoys have been reported over the last year and a half. On 18 December 2021, nearly one hundred oil tankers were smuggled into northern Iraq through the same illegal crossing.
In August 2020, a US company, Delta Crescent Energy, signed a deal with armed groups to develop oil wells and a refinery in areas under US occupation.
Damascus reacted angrily to this move and accused the US of engaging in “state piracy.”
On 10 January, Syrian media reported that the US occupation and one of its various armed groups, set up a refinery to process stolen oil in the town of Rmelan in Hasakah governorate.
According to the report, this installed oil facility has a capacity to refine 3,000 barrels of oil per day. The refinery was set up to increase US looting of Syrian oil.
The US has smuggled tens of thousands of barrels of Syrian oil into Iraq.

Syrian anti-aircraft defenses repelled an attack coming from areas of the occupied Golan Heights.
A missile attack perpetrated by Israel on Damascus, the Syrian capital, left at least three dead on Friday, according to local media.
The anti-aircraft defenses of the Syrian Arab Army reported that they repelled an attack from areas of the occupied Golan Heights on some points in the southern part of the capital city.
Likewise, the military authorities detailed that the anti-aircraft batteries responded to the aggression and managed to shoot down most of the missiles, although they regretted the death of the three people.
They detailed that the three deaths are anti-aircraft defense officers with the ranks of captain, first lieutenant and lieutenant.
Israel has carried out at least 13 attacks during the current year against Syrian territory. Prior to this, one had been registered against the town of Messiaf in the center of the nation, which caused the death of four members of the army and a civilian.
Syria has condemned these actions before the United Nations Organization on numerous occasions, as well as deploring the silence of the international community and has demanded the return of the occupied territories in the Golan Heights.
