1 US SOLDIER INJURED
It was claimed that one US soldier was injured in the attack. No statement has been made by the US regarding the attack yet.
US military bases in Al-Hasakah and Deir ez-Zor have been frequently targeted by rockets and kamikaze unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of unknown origin since the beginning of the year.
The territory of Deir ez-Zor east of the Euphrates River is under the occupation of the US-backed terrorist organization PKK/YPG, while the city center and other rural areas are under the control of the Bashar al-Assad regime and Iran-backed groups.
