New developments targeting the Syrian government’s presence in Hasakah city come amid the arrival of military and logistical reinforcements for the U.S. military to its bases in the governorates of Al-Hasakah and Deir Ezzor.
The PKK-affiliated forces have seized the Syrian Commercial Bank in Hasakah, as they expelled all the employees inside the building and established full control over the site earlier today.
According to a field report, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), alongside the U.S. Coalition, attacked the main building of the Syrian Commercial Bank branch of the government located within the gathering of official departments in the southern section of Ghuweiran District, at the entrance of Al-Zohour neighborhood in Hasakah city.
The U.S. Coalition and SDF expelled government officials and students from the Tourism Directorate building, which also includes the hotel’s tourist high school, and the Technical Institute for Tourist and Hotel Sciences in the Al-Zuhour neighborhood of Al-Hasakah as well.
These anti-government operations have started with the arrival of U.S. reinforcements, and might indicate a bigger plan.
