Politico/AP: Drones reportedly attack convoy in east Syria coming from Iraq
It was not immediately clear who was behind the attack on the convoy in the border region of Boukamal.
BEIRUT — Drones attacked a convoy of trucks in eastern Syria Sunday night shortly after it crossed into the country from Iraq, Syrian opposition activists and a pro-government radio station said.
There was no immediate word on casualties.
The strike comes amid heightening tension between Iran and its rivals in the region. It was not immediately clear who was behind the attack on the convoy in the Syrian border region of Boukamal, which is a stronghold of Iran-backed militias.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said the drones appear to have been from the U.S.-led coalition, adding that they targeted six refrigerated trucks. The group said there were casualties and ambulances rushed to the area.

Ok, with all these drone strikes; what’s the BDA ? I doubt they have caused much damage.
A drone hits dotage tank it might tank 3 days to a month to replace. If the tanks are side by side It would be more toward 1 month perhaps a little longer. you could cut production by 10%.
Depending on how many different chemicals and tanks are hit and what the delivery schedules look like they could cut production by 20% to 25% for the year.
Plus costs to produce go up now that security will cost more.
