🇮🇶🇸🇾 Iraqi oil tankers loaded with crude are pouring into Syria right now through the AlYarubiyah crossing in AlHasakah countryside.

Crossing just reopened after 13 years shut and yesterday Iraq sent the first official convoy of 70 tankers.

This is Iraq’s workaround: using Syria as a land bridge to the Mediterranean to dodge the messy Strait of Hormuz chaos.

Long convoys, real money for both sides, and a whole new route lighting up.
