#2 The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported that American vehicles belonging to the international coalition loaded “stolen Syrian oil” into tanks and transported them from the Hasakah countryside to Iraqi lands

#4 Politico Updated: 08/06/2020 "An American company has inked a contract with Kurdish authorities in northeastern Syria to develop and export the region’s crude oil under a secretive deal approved by the U.S. government months after President Donald Trump announced he was leaving U.S. troops to “secure the oil,” multiple people familiar with the project told POLITICO.
The agreement reached by a little-known firm helmed by politically connected former military and diplomatic officials has already angered the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad, which does not recognize the Kurdish authorities as autonomous. The Syrian Foreign Minister called the deal illegal and said it is aimed at “stealing” Syria’s crude.
