"Kurdistan Workers' Party" has established control over large oil fields in the vicinity of the Syrian Deir ez Zoro. Detachments of the party, which is considered a terrorist organization in Turkey, threw out militants of the "Islamic state" (a terrorist organization banned in Russia) from the cities of As-Suvar and Al-Qasr not far from the Euphrates, reports Anadolu Agency. According to the source, in this area there are large oil fields, such as Al Omar, Tanak, Ward and others - only about a third of the country's energy resources. IG, which in 2014 seized this territory, received millions of dollars from the trade in Syrian oil and gas.
