More Civilians Killed in Fresh US Air Raids in Eastern Syria

A sum of 11 members of a family were killed in a fresh round of air raids on residential areas in the small town of al-Shafa'ah in Southeastern Deir Ezzur.

Local sources said in November that the US warplanes carried out several combat sorties over the small towns of Hajin and al-Shafa'ah in Southeastern Deir Ezzur, adding that at least 33 civilians, mostly women and children were killed and tens more were wounded in the attack that also destroyed a number of residential units.

The sources further said that death toll will possibly rise as the warplanes continue attacking and taking out the injured from under the debris of ruined buildings is being done slowly.
