DAMASCUS, Nov 9 (NNN-SANA) – Four U.S. soldiers were killed yesterday, by an explosive device in the countryside of Syria’s north-eastern province of Hasakah.
The explosive device tore through a U.S. military vehicle, in the village of Markadeh, on the Hasakah-Deir al-Zour road, said the report.
It added that a translator was among the slain soldiers.
Following the explosion, the U.S. forces cordoned off the area, amid the flight of U.S. warplanes in the area.
The slain soldiers were taken to a U.S. base in the Shaddadi area, in the Hasakah countryside.
The U.S. forces and their allies of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), control the majority of oil fields in north-eastern Syria.
It said that thousands of truckloads of military gears reached U.S. bases in Hasakah.– NNN-SANA
