Today, the SDF announced that 6 of its members were killed in a suicide drone attack that targeted the global coalition base in the Al-Omar oil field in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor, at midnight last night.
The SDF said in a statement published this morning that 6 of its members were killed during a terrorist attack by a suicide drone coming from areas controlled by “Syrian regime mercenaries”, which targeted a training academy in Al-Omar field, east of Deir Ezzor.
The SDF added, “While we condemn this terrorist attack, we affirm our right to an appropriate military response to the source of the attack.”
