SIMULTANEOUS ATTACKS TARGET US BASES IN SYRIA

Simultaneous Attacks Target US Bases in Syria

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Simultaneous attacks struck three military bases housing US occupation forces in Syria.

According to sources, the US base in the al-Omar oil field, east of Syria's Deir ez-Zur Province, was shelled on Saturday night.

The attack, involving ground-to-ground weapons, triggered explosions within the facility, with the blasts audible in the surrounding areas.


In a similar assault, the Harab Cir bases in Syria's al-Hasakah Province were targeted. Additionally, drones of unknown origin struck the al-Tanf base in Syria's Homs Province, near the Jordanian border. As of now, no casualties or damage have been reported.

Previously, on Friday, an explosion was heard at the base housing US troops in the Conoco gas field in Deir ez-Zur.


In recent weeks, US bases in the region have faced multiple rocket or drone attacks, reflecting growing anti-American sentiment due to Washington's strong support for the Israeli regime's military campaign in Gaza.

Meanwhile, Israel conducted an artillery attack on the outskirts of Syria's southern Quneitra Province on Sunday. Anti-Damascus militants reported that the Israeli artillery fire targeted positions held by the Syrian Army and its allies.

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time.
