9 of these fairly similar space shots include iqsytr

all of them are facing east from easternmost syria

the tripoint falls at the thalweg junction of the tigris & khabur rivers

you can see the much narrower khabur entering the broad tigris
at far left center in each case

syria is in the foreground on the near side of the tigris
while turkey is at far left on the right bank of the khabur
& iraq is the much larger area opposite turkey & syria
filling out the center & upper right of all the photos

the blowup of the second photo clearly shows the braids of the tigris
so you can imagine the tripoint falling in the most major one of these
just a hair downstream or toward the right edge of the confluence area
