SYRIAN ARMY AND ALLIES REACHED IRAQI BORDER SOUTHEAST OF AT TANF – REPORTS

The Syrian Arab Army and its allies have reached the Iraqi border southeast of the village of at-Tanf controlled by special oeprations forces of the US-led coalition member states and Western-backed militant groups, according to Elijah J. Magnier, a chief international correspondent of the al-Rai media outlet.
: and allies reached for the first time the Syrian-Iraqi borders north-east al-Tanaf.
 According to Elijah J. Magnier, pro-government forces reached the border in the area just few km from at-Tanf. The Popular Mobilization Units (described by the mainstream media as pro-Iranian proxies) control the same area from the Iraqi side.
If reports are confirmed and government forces are going to set up positions in the area, the US-led coalition and its proxies will likely use a force to drive the Syrian government forces back from the border with Iraq.
