Several explosions have occurred in an arsenal of weapons and ammunition from a military base used by the international coalition in northeastern Syria.  "At least five explosions occurred on Saturday morning in weapons and ammunition depots at a base near the town of Tal Tamer," northwest of the city of Al-Hasaka, AFP reported Saturday to Rami Abdel Rahman, Director of the opposition Sirian Observatory for Human Rights (OSDH).  The so-called US-led coalition. And its Kurdish allies used the military base to attack the positions of the terrorist group EIIL (Daesh, in Arabic), added the source consulted.  A local Kurdish official explained that the base "was primarily a US-supervised warehouse and home to Kurdish fighters," and indicates that the explosions left an undetermined number of casualties "evacuated by ambulance."  Neither source was able to pinpoint the source of the explosions
