(FOX NEWS) – A senior U.S. official confirmed to Fox News there have been multiple injuries after American service members were ambushed in Syria on Saturday.
The official added that some of the injuries were serious.
Two local Syrian officials earlier told Reuters that a convoy of U.S. and Syrian forces fighting the Islamic State terrorist group was targeted while on patrol in the central town of Palmyra.
The Department of War had told Fox News Digital that “we are aware of reports,” but added that it had “nothing additional to provide at this time.”
“The United States, CIA and military forces are reportedly deeply involved in securing and stabilizing the situation in Syria,” Dan Diker, president of the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, recently told Fox News Digital.
