Two stands in Hasaka and Qamishli to denounce US attack against a Syrian Arab Army’s checkpoint in Qamishli countryside

 Hasaka, SANA- The citizens in Hasaka province staged two protest stands in Hasaka city and Qamishli on Tuesday to denounce the US attack against a Syrian Arab Army’s checkpoint in Tal al-Zahab in Qamishli countryside.

SANA reporter in Hasaka said that the protesters condemned the US attack against the Syrian Arab Army checkpoint in Tal al-Zahab in Qamishli countryside, calling for resisting the US occupation, rallying around the Syrian Arab Army and activating the role of the popular resistance to expel the occupation forces which violates the Syrian sovereignty and loots the country’s resources.

US occupation warplanes have attacked a checkpoint for the Syrian Arab Army southeast of Qamishli as a soldier was martyred and two others were injured.

The participants chanted slogans demanding to expel the US and Turkish occupation forces from Syrian territories and they burnt the  American flag in rejection of any US illegitimate presence in Syria, asserting that the US attack against a Syrian Arab Army checkpoint is considered as a treachery against all Syrian people and as a “specific offence.”

Head of the Council of Elders and Dignitaries of Syrian Clans and Tribes Sheikh Mizar al-Muslat described the US attack against a Syrian Arab Army checkpoint as a “flagrant violation and a specific hostility against the Syrian people.”

For his part, Syriac Orthodox Archbishop of Jazeera and Euphrates Mor Maurice Amsih  reiterated that the US attack against the Army’s checkpoint is a “hostility”, asserting that all the foreign forces which had entered the Syrian territories illegitimately will be expelled, on top of them the US and Turkish occupation forces.

During the stand, the Council of Elders and Dignitaries of Syrian Clans and Tribes issued a statement in which it called on all the citizens in the Syrian al-Jazeera to resist the US occupation, denouncing the US attack as a hostility against the Syrian soldiers who we are so proud with them, vowing to respond through the popular resistance.
