This news comes out and is official from Russia right after an American military spokesman said that they had carried out 3 airstrikes on pro-regime militias with some iranian elements and that they have warned them several times but it seems like they were so aggressive the iranian backed militias that they encircled the US forces in al-tanf. They have gone the other side and came behind them meaning they are literally encircled.
The US forces have tried to avoid confrontations but this encirclement can really be the red line.
A US spokesman from Al-tanf released a message before all this happened regarding the threat and situation in that area and he explained that they told the iranian backed militia to stay away from the area but them being encircled could be viewed as a serious threat and perhaps hostile move towards them and they are motivated towards expelling the US forces and chasing them away. It will be intersting to see what the US forces will relpy to this sudden encirclement.
The video is before the encirclement and few hours later the SAA confirmed they have encircled the forces in al-tanf while being fully aware of the nature of the situation
