U.S. bases in Syria attacked with drones and rockets

Damascus, Nov 13 (Prensa Latina) U.S. enclaves in northeastern Syria were again bombarded with projectiles and drones, military sources quoted by local media reported today.

According to these sources, a “kamikaze” drone hit a Pentagon forces facility at the Green Village base in the Al-Omar oil field in the province of Deir Ezzor, some 500 kilometers northeast of this capital.

The self-styled Islamic Resistance of Iraq announced that it was responsible for the action and assured that the unmanned aerial vehicle hit the indicated target.

Likewise, a bombardment with 15 rockets hit US military infrastructures in the Koniko gas field, in the same governorate.

Washington maintains some fifteen bases on Syrian territory without the consent of the Damascus government or the approval of the United Nations.

Syria repeatedly denounced this presence, which it described as an occupation, and assured that the actions of the U.S. military on Syrian territory encourage terrorist activity and aim at destabilizing the country and plundering its wealth.

The attacks against these bases increased notably since the beginning of the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip and caused injuries to at least 45 U.S. military personnel, according to reports.
