BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:45 A.M.) – A conference between the 70 tribes of Aleppo, Al-Raqqa, and Al-Hasakah was held in government-held city of Deir Hafer in eastern Aleppo on Saturday.

The name of the meeting was called “Syrian tribes against foreign intervention and the American presence on Syrian soil.”

The tribal leaders announced the formation of a popular resistance unit that will fight alongside the Syrian Arab Army in a bid to liberate all Syrian lands and all foreign forces in Syria.

According to a military source, the new force will make a direct move against the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and U.S. armed forces in eastern Syria.
