Closed about ten days ago | Dozens of oil tankers enter daily from SDF-held areas to regime-held areas via Al-Tabqa crossing, as oil enters the Euphrates Shield areas

 

SOHR activists from the western countryside of Raqqa, say that the crossing of Al-Tabqa connecting the regime-held areas with the SDF-held areas, which has been closed for ten days to the commercial and civil movements due to the Russian-Iranian differences, has witnessed the entry of oil tankers from SDF-held to the regime-held areas.

Dozens of oil tanks enter regime-held areas via the crossing despite its closure. Hundreds of tanks were used to enter daily, but now only dozens of tanks enter since its closure on March 22 due to the conflict between the Russian and Iranian wings.

Moreover, oil tanks from SDF-held areas in the eastern Euphrates continues to enter into areas controlled by the “Euphrates Shield” operating room factions. The tanks wait in queue daily near Manbij to enter the areas held by faction in Jarabulus, north-east of Aleppo.
