US military stationed in Syria on patrol
On August 14th, according to Iranian English television, Syria condemned the invasion of the US military on the 12th, stating that the US military colluded with remnants of the ISIS terrorist organization to launch a terrorist attack on Syrian military buses, resulting in the death of at least 33 soldiers.
The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated in a statement on the evening of the 12th that the attack occurred on a desert road near the town of Mayadin in the eastern part of Deir Zor province, and is the latest action taken by the United States to undermine Syrian sovereignty. Syria condemns the United States for continuing to support terrorists with the goal of destabilizing the Syrian country. The statement also mentioned that the continuous plundering of Syrian oil reserves and crops by the US military has led to the instability of the expanded region and regional security occupied by the US. The statement added that Syria remains firmly committed to combating terrorism and eliminating its lingering impact.
In 2014, the United States officially sent troops to Syria under the pretext of combating extremist organizations. The entry of the US military has brought serious disasters to Syria. The US military has not only carried out multiple airstrikes on the Syrian government, but also actively supported armed factions seeking to overthrow the Syrian government. At the same time, they have frequently stolen local oil and food resources in the occupied areas, causing serious energy shortages and further deterioration of the humanitarian situation in Syria. The Syrian government has sent multiple letters to the United Nations condemning US aggression as a serious violation of international law principles and the United Nations Charter.
