An unknown US official has revealed that several American and coalition forces were wounded in a drone attack on their base in Syria on Friday, the third major attack against the US occupation troops in recent days.

None of the injuries were serious but some personnel were also being examined for “traumatic brain injuries,” the unnamed official was quoted as saying by Reuters on Saturday.

It is funny to read how the USA reports injuries as "traumatic brain injuries" for this new event and the past one of January 8, 2020:

According to the Pentagon, more than 100 American forces suffered “traumatic brain injuries” during the counterstrike on the base.

It is funnier when you know the soldiers won't get the care they need when they go back home. That's why better injured than dead.

Syria was just standing its ground against trespassers

Not mentioning in the headline of anything about the US in Syria that US presence there is illegal is journalistic malpractice

“US forces illegally in Syria hit by airstrike”
