Israel\u2019s Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported on Friday that the oil wells, which were previously controlled by the Syrian government, have turned into a source of income by the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), an alliance of mainly Kurdish forces fighting against Damascus.<\/p>\n

The US-backed SDF militants in northeastern Syria protect the security interests of the Zionist regime, the report added. It estimated that the Kurdish militants – with the help of less than 1,000 American troops – control a quarter of Syrian territory. Syria has been gripped by foreign-backed militancy since March 2011. The Syrian government says the Israeli regime and its Western and regional allies are aiding Takfiri terrorist groups that are wreaking havoc in the Arab country.<\/p>\n

Syrian government forces have retaken many areas once controlled by the terror outfits and are pressing ahead with their fight against the militants in their last bastions in the northwestern province of Idlib and areas in the neighboring Aleppo province. The Israeli report said that the start of the Syria crisis gave Israel an opportunity to overthrow the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, but the regime missed the chance. In addition to Israel, the US has been looting Syrian oil under a deal signed with the US-backed SDF without authorization from Damascus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
