Not sure if this is part of the new administration’s attempt at normalizing international relations, but a convoy of 40 trucks and armor vehicles is reported to have entered Syria from Iraq.
A large US military convoy entered northeastern Syria on Thursday, Syrian state news agency SANA reports, citing sources on the ground.
According to the report, the convoy included some 40 trucks and armored vehicles and was backed from the air by helicopters.
It entered Syria from Iraq via the al-Waleed crossing to bring arms and logistical equipment to the bases in Hasakeh and Deir Ezzor provinces.
Other local media report that such maneuvers are not unusual as the US often moves transfers equipment between Iraq and Syria.
At the same time, SANA also reports that some 200 US troops arrived in the Hasakeh province on helicopters.
Not suprisingly, the troops are set to deploy on the nearby oilfields, with Kurdish-controlled eastern Syria rich in energy resources.
The US-led coalition has been working closely with the Kurds during the campaign against the Islamic State terrorist group in Syria, with Kurdish forces often working as ground coordinators for coalition jets during airstrikes.
In late 2020, then-US President Donald Trump ordered US troops withdrawn from the area to redeploy to Iraq.

Yeah, well this ain’t rocket science. Welcome to the new progressive Biden Administration. Rather than have oil peacefully flow through The Keystone pipeline, they opt for having our soldiers remain in a war zone. Rather than have 10,000 American union laborers have good jobs, and our states earning tens of $millions annually from the pipeline, the democrat party wants to spend millions/billions defending someone else’s oil, and also have our energy prices rise. Rather than have America free of oil uprisings and squabblings in The Middle East, we’re quite possibly about to start having some of our soldiers die over this instead of continuing to come home. It doesn’t take long when oil is their best resource for getting more $ for the local economy there, and this is the way to get it, or disrupt the flow. All, of course, in the name of narcissism from the policy makers behind Biden, and in the name of Unity. Do we believe the unity concept ? All this while the meds they give President Biden to keep him propped up are slowly being reduced so that a livelier clueless puppet, in the name of feminism, can be installed in the office. Is Fauci in control of that ? WHAT A SWAMP
