Air strikes target ISIS in eastern Syria, kill 23

None

Dawn air strikes on a Syrian border town in the ISIS-held eastern province of Deir al-Zor killed 23 people, most of them civilians, a war monitoring group said on Monday.

 

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said jets thought to belong to the US-led coalition hit the town of Al-Bukamal near the border with Iraq. The warplanes struck near a residential area and a mosque, wounding dozens more, the Britain-based monitor said.

 

The ISIS-linked media outlet Amaq said coalition strikes killed 15 people and wounded 35 others in Al-Bukamal.
