A missile hit the base located in the al-Omar oil field in Syria’s Deir ez-Zour province in the early hours of Monday, Paralel.Az reports citing Arab media.

This base has come under repeated drone and missile attacks in recent months, mostly claimed by the Islamic Resistance, an umbrella group of several resistance factions in Iraq.

The new attack was launched just 2 days after a similar attack was carried out on the same military base as well as the one located in the Koniko gas field.
