The US-led coalition airstrikes Friday hit tankers carrying oil from an eastern Syrian city besieged by the People's Protection Units YPG to an area under control of the Bashar Assad regime, Anadolu Agency cited local sources as saying.
In the early hours of Friday May 31, the coalition forces raided on the area where an oil trade had been carried out between the YPG and the Syrian regime in the eastern outskirts of Deir Ezzor with Hummer brand vehicles, according to the local sources who spoke anonymously due to fears of safety.
The coalition planes hit three of the tankers. The attack left four people dead and smoke was seen rising from the area.
The coalition is yet to issue a statement on the attack.
