On February 19, a convoy of the US-led coalition was intercepted by soldiers from the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) while moving in the northern countryside of al-Hasakah.
The soldiers stopped the coalition’s convoy, which consisted of four Oshkosh M-ATV MRAP [Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected] vehicles, in the outskirts of the town of Tell al-Dahab. After a brief stand-off, the soldiers forced the convoy to retreat.
The Syrian state TV shared footage showing US-led coalition armored vehicles only a few meters away from the SAA’s checkpoint on Tell al-Dahab entrance.

This was the second such confrontation in less than a week. On February 13, SAA soldiers and supporters of the Damascus government intercepted a large convoy of the US-led coalition near Tell al-Dahab.
These confrontations appear to be meant to restrict the movement of the US-led coalition, who continues to expand its presence in northeastern Syria.
Just a day earlier, the coalition announced that it had deployed additional M2A3 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles in the region. The coalition claimed that the heavily-armed vehicles were deployed to help its proxy, the Syrian Democratic Forces, counter the threat of ISIS cells.
Time for a policy from the SAA of giving 5 minutes warning to the Zio terrorist guard dogs if the Jews, to turn around and flee, then opening fire and destroying equipment along with the gay occupiers
But no action taken as usual by..saa saa
