Damascus, August 15 (RHC)-- A military base in southeastern Syria near the borders with Jordan and Iraq, where U.S. occupation troops and their allied Takfiri militants are stationed, has come under attack by armed unmanned aerial vehicles.

The U.S. military said in a statement that the attack took place in the vicinity of al-Tanf base, adding that there were no reports of casualties or damage.  There was also no claim of responsibility for the air raid.

The statement asserted that American forces in coordination with the U.S.-backed and so-called Maghawir al-Thawra terrorists “responded to an attack by multiple unmanned aerial systems in the vicinity of al-Tanf Garrison” on Monday.   It said U.S. troops engaged one of the drones preventing its impact while a second one detonated within the compound run by the Takfiri militants.  The other attempted drone strikes were apparently not successful.

U.S. occupation forces are reportedly training some 500 Daesh terrorists in order to carry out acts of sabotage and terrorists attacks against units of Russian armed forces in Ukraine.

Last month, the U.S. military purportedly armed allied Takfiri terrorists in southeastern Syria with the M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS).

Maghawir al-Thawra terrorists published a picture, showing the launch of HIMARS units during military exercises in the strategic al-Tanf region.  The militant group said that the launch showed its members' skills and capability to defend themselves against any potential attack, apparently referring to an earlier Russian raid that targeted them in al-Tanf region.

The development came a few days after anti-Damascus Takfiri militants conducted joint military exercises with American forces in al-Tanf region.
