Obviously this was well planned, they brought their own truck along and just switched the tankers over and then drove off with the spoils. But where the hell could they go with a petrol tanker, it’s not like you can hide it in your back garage, and how could you even move it without being seen. This hasn’t just been well planned and executed, it’s also hints at local support. Right in the middle of Iranian controlled territory during a massive operation to stop Isis, mmm.
