Damascus, Feb 26 (IBNS): At least 25 civilians were killed as airstrikes by the US-led anti-terror coalition hit Deir al-Zour area in Syria, a monitor group reported on Monday.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said airstrikes were carried out targeting ISIS militants.

"25 casualties, more than half of them are children and women, killed in a massacre by the International Coalition, targeted the last pocket for ISIS on the Euphrates’ eastern bank," SOHR reported.
