SYRIA - American troops stealing the countrys oil

American troops are stealing more than 80 per cent of Syria’s oil resources every day, the Ministry of Oil and Mineral Resources says as US forces continue to plunder the country’s natural resources. According to the ministry, Syrian oil production for the first half of 2022 amounted to 14.5 million barrels, an average of 80,300 a day. But it has accused the US occupying forces of the theft of 66,000 barrels a day, which amounts to just over 83 per cent of Syria’s oil output. Syria’s government accuses Washington of smuggling oil out of the country via an illegal crossing into Iraqi Kurdistan. Regular reports from the ground have been backed by footage and photographs appearing to show large convoys of US tankers leaving the country, often escorted by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
