The United States is reportedly investigating the reason why its air defense system was not fully operational during a strike on a US base in Syria.

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said earlier in the day that the US military had carried out airstrikes on facilities belonging to groups affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) after an Iranian drone attacked a coalition base in northeast Syria, killing one US contractor.


The US military does not know at present why the system did not work as it should and the circumstances are under investigation, the report said, citing two officials. (You guys should wait, they'll soon go and concoct one lie/excuse to feed you guys) grin

One of the officials explained that the Avenger missile defense system on the base, named RLZ, may have been experiencing some unexpected maintenance issue, despite the fact that the troops were on high alert given that Iranian-backed groups had conducted 78 attacks in the past two years, US media reported.

Two service members injured during the attack were treated on site, while three others were evacuated to the medical facility in Iraq along with a wounded contractor, a release issued late Thursday by the Pentagon detailed.

The Defense Department did not reveal the identity of the killed person, pending notification of family, one official said, according to the report.

US officials said on Friday that Iran-backed militias fired about a dozen of rockets while attacking a second US base in the area, but that strike did not result in casualties. (Na lie o...it's damage control...so the US can save face ...shey you understand) grin

The US military controls parts of the provinces of Al-Hasakah, Raqqa, Aleppo and Deir Ez-Zor, where the largest Syrian oil and gas fields are located. The Syrian government has repeatedly called the US military presence in the provinces an occupation aimed at stealing Syria’s oil.

China Castigates US For Stealing Oil From Syria
https://www.nairaland.com/7529408/china-castigates-us-stealing-oil#120128667

Libya was a very prosperous country before NATO invaded and destabilized the country.
Now the country is left in ruins.
The destruction and destabilization of Libya had a negative impact on countries like Nigeria.

Everywhere NATO goes, they live their regular trade mark of death, destruction, destabilization and neocolonialism.
They've never actually brought peace.
They create imaginary enemies to justify their existence.

The media is mute on the illegal US occupation of Syria.


It is stated that the Syrian people’s right to life is being ruthlessly trampled on by the US


US theft of Syrian oil exacerbates the energy and humanitarian crisis in the war-torn Middle Eastern country, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a briefing on Tuesday.

"According to Syrian government data, in the first half of 2022, over 80% of Syria’s daily oil output was smuggled out of the country by US occupation troops <…> Such banditry is aggravating the energy crisis and humanitarian disaster in Syria. The Syrian people’s right to life is being ruthlessly trampled on by the US," the diplomat said.

"The US must answer for its oil theft. The Syrian people and the international community deserve an answer. We urge the US to stop trampling on international rule of law and breaking international rules," Wang Wenbin emphasized.

Most parts of the Syrian provinces of Deir Ez-Zor, Raqqa and Hasakah in the country’s east and northeast are under the control of the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) backed by the US. According to Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen TV channel, the US-led Western coalition assists the Kurdish autonomous administration in setting up production at mothballed wells. According to the news outlet, this is done in order to create an economic base with subsequent oil sales. Damascus views America’s military presence on Syrian soil as an illegal occupation of the country.

Imagine the u.s attacking Iran during this period of hostilities grin grin grin

Before the strategic relationship with Russia, iran made her territory to be two expensive for any country to invade. That's why Israel has been shouting for years on how they'll bomb Iran, but till date they haven't done anything massive.

To crown it all, with the new relationship with Russia, Iran has an advantage in terms of being safe from external attack for now. But I'm still skeptical if Russia has guarantee them of nuclear weapons or not.

if anyone have information concerning any form of approval from Russia to Iran concerning their nuclear race, should please quote me, I'm too busy to do any research on that right now.
Thanks

This is a pure act of wickedness grin

how can you recommend CNN.

if CNN is the only functional news network in existence, I'd rather remain uninformed, than to be disinformed.

You know here in Nigeria, our own CNN is NTA.

and if you're very religious, ask your SpiritualLeader (e.g Pastor or Imam or NativeDoctor or Prophet) - they already are used to thinking on behalf of their members.

...and there are various ways one could be brainWashed. one of such mediums is Movies.
