Al-Masdar News has obtained rare images of an air field operated by U.S. warplanes in the Sarrin Plains, located in the far eastern countryside of Aleppo near the provincial border with Raqqa.

The pictures show a large U.S. plane taking off and plenty of Humvees protecting the site. An American flag is also hoisted above the airport which is located in rearguard territory controlled by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF):

Although not publicly acknowledged by the Pentagon, the U.S. is believed to have constructed upwards of a dozen air fields in northern Syria without the permission of the Syrian Government.

[According to the American rhetorical propaganda, SFP] the airstrips are used to conduct airstrikes against Daesh (ISIS, ISIL, the so-called Islamic State) but also suggest that American troops intend to stay in the war-torn country for several years to come.
