MOSCOW, June 16. /TASS/. Russian servicemen helped nine refugees leave the US-occupied Al-Tanf zone in Syria on Thursday, said Rear Adm. Oleg Gurinov, the deputy chief of the Russian Center for Reconciliation of the Opposing Parties in Syria.

"Over the past 24 hours, the exit of nine refugees (two women and seven children) from the US-occupied Al Tanf zone was ensured," he said, adding that humanitarian situation on the US-controlled territory remained dire.
