US-led coalition strikes kill 14 civilians in east Syria

In Syria, at least 14 civilians have been killed in US-led coalition air strikes on the Islamic State terror group's last holdout in eastern Deir Ezzor province. 

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, at least nine terrorists were also killed in the air raids on the villages of Hajin, Sousa and



Al-Shaafa.

The Britain-based monitor said, the death toll is likely to rise due to the number of seriously injured. 

The Observatory said, the strikes on the area intensified following an attempted terror attack on a coalition base in the nearby village of Al-Bahra.
