Syria’s official news agency SANA reported that Syrian army soldiers stopped the American convoy, consisting of 7 armored vehicles, as it tried to make its way through the village of Kuzelia, which lies west of Tal Tamr town, on Sunday.
Locals then threw stones at the American convoy and cursed the soldiers, forcing them to move back.
The development came only two days after local residents of Rumailan al-Basha village in the same Syrian province hurled stones at US troops as their convoy sought to drive through the area.
