The Qaterji’s Special Task Force increased its presence in al-Soula oil field after the Russia-backed Liwaa al-Quds militia withdrew its posts from the perimeter of the field.
The Special Task Force for Security and Protection is Russia’s most prominent security company in Syria. It is owned by Al-Qaterji, one of Assad regime’s most prominent supporters. The company imports oil and its derivatives from the SDF-controlled areas to the areas controlled by Assad regime, and protects oil fields like: al-Ward, Al-Shoula, and al-Taim fields in Deir Ezzor.
