Local activists quoted by Al-Watan newspaper reported that four rockets hit the US-controlled Al-Omar oil field in eastern Deir Ezzor province.

Immediately after the attack, several helicopters and drones were deployed and began combing the peripheral area of the US base, they detailed.

The actions against the Pentagon’s military forces and its separatist Syrian Democratic Forces (FDS) militia recently increased amid popular anger at their practices.

The country’s tribes and clans have repeatedly expressed their resounding rejection to Washington’s troops and announced the formation of an army whose mission is to support the Syrian armed forces in their anti-terrorist struggle and carry out actions aimed at expelling the foreign occupiers.
