With flights by Russian jets | US convoy arrives in al-Ma’amel roundabout to defuse tension between the Russians and residents

Deir Ezzor province: In light of the ongoing tension at al-Ma’amel roundabout near al-Salihiya crossing connecting SDF-held areas and regime controlled areas in northern Deir Ezzor over the resident’s rejection of allowing Russian patrols to pass in their areas, SOHR sources have reported the arrival of a group of US forces at al-Ma’amel roundabout. The US forces aimed to defuse the tension between the Russians and the area’s residents who had set fire to rubber tire, expressing their rejection of the passing of Russian patrols in their areas. Meanwhile, Russian fighter jets were seen flying over the region.

 

A few hours ago, SOHR sources reported that gunmen opened fire on a Russian convoy of four armoured vehicles, escorted by helicopters, while it was traveling on the road to Abu Khashab to al-Salihiya crossing connecting SDF-held areas and regime controlled areas in northern Deir Ezzor. According to SOHR sources, the gunfire left no casualties.

 

Meanwhile, tens of the residents set fire to rubber tires near al-Ma’amel roundabout near al-Salihiyyah crossing, expressing their rejection of the passing of Russian patrols in their areas.
