TEHRAN (Defapress)- Field sources reported that a US military convoy moved to Northeastern Hasaka from Iraq on Wednesday.

They added that the convoy consisted of several military vehicles and personnel carriers, noting that it entered Tal Beidar region between Qamishli and the town of Tal Tamar which is occupied by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

The sources said that the military equipment will likely be transferred to one of the US bases on Eastern Euphrates.

The American forces are stationed in a military base in Tal Beidar region that hosts helicopter pads and several military bases.

In a relevant development on Wednesday, the US forces conducted four more airborne operations in Southeastern Hasaka to rescue a number of entrapped ISIL terrorists, a move done repeatedly by the American forces to provide back up for the terrorist group in Eastern Syria.

Four American military helicopters conducted four sorties of heliborne operations in the villages of al-Qeirawan, Haresat Sinjar, al-Ta'ef and Abu Kabra, evacuating a group of ISIL terrorists to an unknown location.

The US military forces are carrying out airborne operation in ISIL-held regions once in a while.
