The Pentagon, the U.S. Department of Defense, has asserted that Russian forces have violated agreements concerning operations in Syria, while concurrently indicating no expectation of significant escalation.
As quoted by Reuters from the Pentagon, the Central Command retains the capacity to operate in Syria without complications.
In the same context, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported 13 instances of international coalition aircraft violations in the Al-Tanf region, eastern Syria. It pointed out that these aircraft jeopardized the safety of Syrian civil aviation.
Areas in the east and north of Syria are witnessing military movements spread along both banks of the Euphrates River. The potential for a wide-scale military clash in the region is increasing, coinciding with aerial tensions between the coalition forces and Russian forces in the country.
