Syrian Army accuses US of planning ISIS attacks from Tanf zone

BEIRUT, LEBANON (1:55 P.M.) - The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) released a statement on Saturday that accused the U.S. Coalition of planning attacks for the Islamic State (ISIS) from the Tanf zone in southern Syria.

According to the Syrian Army statement, the U.S. Coalition allowed free passage to Islamic State terrorists from the Tanf zone; they would then attack the government forces after leaving this area.

Furthermore, the Syrian Arab Army said that the U.S. Coalition was providing the Islamic State intel about their positions in the Badiya Al-Sham region.

The Syrian Army and government have accused the U.S. Coalition of harboring Islamic State terrorists on several occasions this year, despite Washington's denials.

The Islamic State often navigates through the vast desert region of Syria to carry out attacks against the Syrian Arab Army in the Al-Sweida, Damascus, Homs and Deir Ezzor governorates.
