The largest American command post in Syria has reportedly come under rocket fire in the eastern part of the Arab country, Press TV reported.
The outpost, which is located in the al-Omar oilfield in the village of al-Khazra in Syria’s Dayr al-Zawr Province, was targeted with five rockets on Sunday, field sources told Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen television network on Monday.
The strike triggered several back-to-back explosions at the base.
An al-Mayadeen correspondent, meanwhile, reported that sirens had gone off at the American occupation base in the Conoco Gasfield in the countryside of Dayr al-Zawr’s capital of the same name.
The development was followed by extensive overflight of the base by American warplanes.
No individual or group has yet claimed responsibility for neither development.
Iraqi resistance group have, however, struck US targets across both their country and neighboring Syria on numerous occasions in protest at the United States occupation of various areas across the countries.
