An Unusual Airstrike in Al-Bukamal – Eastern Syria (08 November)

During the night (November 08), an airstrike was carried out on a convoy of trucks (mostly fuel tankers – see the attached video of the allegedly convoy before it was attacked. In the video, pay attention to the lone truck with the container).

The attack was at the border crossing between Iraq – al-Qaaim – and Syria – Al-Bukamal (see the attached ground photos of the crossing).

The crossing area serves as the main land route of the Iranian corridor to Syria and Lebanon (see the attached aerial photo).

The transfer of weapons in the Iranian corridor is currently carried out under civilian cover, concealed in the cargo of prefabricated structures (see the attached photo), inside fuel trucks (tankers) in general, and humanitarian cargo such as food in particular.

Usually, not all the trucks in the civilian convoy carry weapons, and only several trucks blend into the convoy, obscuring them. A fuel tanker and a truck trailer are most suitable for transporting long weapons (missiles) and hiding them within.
