Syrian regime forces blocked a convoy of US military vehicles at a checkpoint in northeastern Syria during an ongoing patrol by US forces present in the area in support of the Kurdish-Syrian militias, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).
It said the episode generated tension in the Tell Tamer area, in the Hasake region, where Russian military forces and Arab-Syrian militias co-opted by Turkey are present.
Sources on the ground reported that the Syrian government military refused to let the US convoy of six armored vehicles into the localities of Qabr Saghir and Qubur Gharajina.
This is the fifth such incident recorded in the Hasake region in the past three weeks, according to SOHR.
