Syrian Army reaches Al-Omar Oil Field in east Deir Ezzor
[ALMASDARNEWS] Preliminary reports have come in saying that the forces of the Syrian Arab Army have reached the massive al-Omar Oil Field complex in eastern Deir Ezzor province.According the one news hound from Russia Today, Syrian Army troops reached the outskirts the al-Omar Oil Field just moments ago after having crossed to the eastern shore of the Euphrates River opposite al-Mayadeen city and capturing the town of Zeban earlier on. Reports say that Syrian forces have achieved fire control over the huge energy site, enticing Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... holy warriors to fully withdraw from it. Whilst yet to be properly confirmed by trusted sources of al-Masdar News, if these early reports are true, then the development is a big one. Prior to the Syrian War, the al-Omar Oil Field contributed to about one quarter of Syria’s oil production. It was captured by ISIS holy warriors in mid-2014. Posted by: Fred 2017-10-21 |
