Here are the Russians, take photos of them

The scenes are intertwined in the predominantly Assyrian town of Tal Tamr, at the middle of the international highway, also known as M4, in northeastern Syria. As fighting rages in the countryside near the war-ravaged town, another scene appears for the F35 and Sukhoi owners.

In a footage took by North-Press reporter at the entrance of the town, a United States military convoy and loaded carriers cross out through the town, while in a few meters, there is a Russian military vehicle. A civilian car driver was braver than the Russian military driver, as he drove into the middle of the military convoy, in an absurd scene which was the outcome of the years before the U.S. move into the oil fields, in the far northeast, of Syria.

The footage is interrupted by the voice of a boy calling a photographer: "Here are the Russians, take photos of them"!   

The lens turns the scene slowly from an American to a Russian, as this part also turned in northeastern Syria from an American to a Russian presence, which began as a focal point for operations in a special town controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

"Here are the Russians, take photos of them"…

It is noteworthy that, the footage was recorded during the encounter of a Russian military vehicle with a U.S. military convoy on Sunday evening, at the entrance of Tal Tamr, which is located in the northwestern countryside of Hasakah governorate.
