Footage from Syria purports to show a US armored personnel carrier pushing a Russian military jeep off the road; relations between Moscow and Washington remain tense.
A video, posted on social media on Wednesday, shows what appears to be a Russian military convoy moving alongside an American one. At one point, a Russian Tigr heavy jeep tries to overtake an Oshkosh M-ATV armored vehicle with a US flag on its roof on the left side of the road.
The M-ATV responds by maneuvering to left trying to block the Russian jeep, then the Russian jeep tries to go and overtake it on the right side of the road and again the American M-ATV is seen trying to block the right side as well, pushing the Russian Tigr off road.
Narrowly evading collision and nearly hitting a pedestrian in the process, both vehicles stop, and one of them honks.
According to the Russian outlet NSN, the alleged incident was filmed near the town of Qamishli in Syria’s northeastern Al-Hasakah Province, bordering with Turkey. There is no official confirmation of the footage as of yet.
Russian Senator Vladimir Dzhabarov told NSN that such incidents “risk leading to [bad] consequences” as “the Americans are asking for trouble.” The lawmaker said that the US and Russia should notify each other about convoy movements to avoid tensions. He also sent a warning to Washington.
They should not provoke us to respond, otherwise it will end badly. I believe wise-minded people in the Pentagon should think about that.
US troops engaged in a brief firefight with locals near Qamishli last week, when armed villagers tried to stop an American military patrol. One Syrian was killed in the clash and another wounded, while the US-led coalition claimed that Americans opened fire in self-defense. Moscow said that the situation only cooled down after a Russian military police unit intervened.

What the hell is this man? This is clearly intentional, first they tried to block the road on the left, then on the right, even risking squashing a Syrian pedestrian…. what the hell is this?
Then the US goes out into the world proclaiming “muh democracy and sheeeit!” when in fact they act like a rogue state.
Needless to mention is that Russia was invited there by Syria while America is in Syria clandestine, nobody asked them to be there. Furthermore didn’t Trump lie that he withdrew his troops from Syria?

This incident is almost certainly showing Turkish armed forces in American military vehicles carrying an American flag. The Americans always get their proxies to provoke Christian Russia. The Jews who rule the USA have not got the balls to confront Russia directly. America is losing against Russia and China hence the provocation. The USA NEVER picks on anyone bigger than itself, they prefer to wage war against defenceless women and children.
