Shafaq News- Damascus Drones launched from Iraq and targeting Al-Tanf base, near the Syria–Iraq–Jordan border, were intercepted, the Syrian Army reported on Saturday. The incident caused no material damage or human casualties. Al-Tanf base has long functioned as a key US military outpost in Syria, where US and allied forces maintained a 55-kilometer security zone to restrict Syrian government forces under Bashar al-Assad and affiliated armed groups. The base also supported counter-ISIS operations and monitored militant activity across the Syrian desert.
