Shafaq News- Hasakah
On Thursday, Shafaq News entered the Qasrak military base, the largest Global Coalition base in northeastern Syria, after US forces withdrew and Syrian army units moved in.
A military force from the Syrian army’s 60th Division
entered the base following the US pullout, while the facility remains under the
control of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which maintain checkpoints
around its perimeter.
US forces withdrew in three convoys —comprising more than
200 vehicles, including heavy equipment, and air defense systems— toward the
Iraqi border via the international highway linking the Al-Yarubiyah and Al-Waleed crossings.
