Damascus, July 12 (SocialNews.XYZ) Rocket fire targeted the largest US base in eastern Syria, marking the latest in a string of recent attacks targeting the facility, according to the state news agency SANA.
The shelling on Sunday targeted the base located in the al-Omar oil field in the eastern countryside of Deir al-Zour, Xinhua news agency quoted SANA as saying.
The base has been targeted repeatedly by pro-Iran militias in the region.
On July 7, the same facility was targeted by explosives-laden drones.

The UK-based watchdog group said there is no report on casualties yet.
A day earlier, an explosion targeted the Koniko gas factory where another US base is located in the eastern countryside of Deir al-Zour with no reports on losses, according to the Observatory.
