Russia admitted quite confused by reports that militants could move freely near US bases located in al-Tanf, Syria.
The situation when the United States almost dominates the 55-kilometer zone around At Tanf on the Syrian-Jordanian border without Syrian government approval is very confusing, "said assistant chairman of the Russian Security Council, Alexander Venediktov.
This zone includes the famous Rukban refugee camp, where militants from illegal armed groups move freely near the US Armed Forces.
Venediktov later said that access to the zone was closed for a UN humanitarian convoy, which is trying to reach refugee camps from the Syrian region. "It remains a mystery how this fits with Washington's anti-terrorism objectives in Syria," he said.
Speaking further on the Syrian issue, Venediktov said that terrorist groups operating in Syria had moved from main combat operations to guerrilla warfare.
