RNA - The Arabic-language website of RT quoted the locals as saying that the US helicopters have been conducting heliborne operations to openly rescue ISIL commander where they come under siege.

It further said that the US warplanes have targeted residential unis that are far from ISIL bases in Eastern Deir Ezzur.

The local population further told the Arabic RT that a large volume of the US-made weapons and ammunition has been found in the Syrian Army's mop-up operations in ISIL's positions in Deir Ezzur province that is further proof of the close cooperation between the US and the ISIL.

It went on to say that some of the analysts believe that the US backup for the ISIL is aimed at reviving the terrorist group on the Eastern bank of the Euphrates River.

According to Fars News Agancy, Syria's state news agency (SANA) reported earlier this month that the US helicopters, in a new heliborne operation, flew away a number of injured ISIL terrorists from Southeastern Deir Ezzur.

It further said that the heliborne operation was done in an ISIL-held region near the small town of al-Sha'afah, adding that the evacuated terrorists were all foreigners coming from different countries.
