US Forces Smuggle 95 Tankers of Syrian Stolen Oil into Iraq Overnight

As looting of Syrian natural resources continues, US occupation forces in Syria have smuggled a new batch of stolen oil from the war-torn Arab country through Iraq's illegal crossings.

According to Syria's official news agency (SANA), US forces plundered more Syrian oil overnight on Thursday, taking out 95 tankers loaded with stolen oil through the illegal al-Walid and al-Mahmudiyah border crossings with Iraq.

According to local sources in the al-Yarubiyah countryside, US occupation forces brought new quantities of stolen oil from Syrian fields in al-Jazeera and the Eastern region via 65 tankers crossing the illegal al-Mahmudiyah crossing and 30 tankers crossing the illegal al-Walid crossing along Iraqi borders.

As part of Washington's systematic smuggling of basic commodities out of Syria, US military trucks and tankers frequently transport tons of grain and crude oil from the northeastern Syrian province of Hasakah to the semi-autonomous Kurdistan region in northern Iraq.
