Russia: U.S. Preparing Terrorist Attacks in Syria

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The United States is preparing terrorist attacks on crowded places and government institutions in Syria, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said on Tuesday.
“As a habitual tool for the implementation of their subversive plans [in Syria], the U.S. intelligence services again intend to use extremists,” the SVR said in a statement, adding that “crowded places, shops and government agencies are among the priority targets.”
The SVR also said that direct control of such operations is conducted from the U.S. at-Tanf military base located on the territory controlled by the foreign-backed militants, where “dozens of Daesh militants being trained”.
U.S. special services coordinate attacks primarily in the southern provinces of Suwayda and Daraa, the intelligence service said. U.S.-controlled militants also target a strategically important highway between the cities of Palmyra and Dary al-Zawr.
In another development on Tuesday, the sound of three explosions was heard on Tuesday near a U.S. base in eastern Syria.
The explosions were heard near the U.S. base in the al-Omar field in the east of Dary al-Zawr.
The cause of the explosions is not clear yet and no further details were released so far.
Al-Omar field is the largest oil field in Syria, where the American base is located in the east of Dary al-Zawr. The Syrian government has repeatedly warned that the presence of the U.S. forces is illegal.
