Russian strikes reportedly kill 34 civilians in Syria’s Deir Ezzor

Russian airstrikes kill 34 civilians, among them 15 children, in a village held by the Islamic State group in Syria’s eastern Deir Ezzor province, a monitor says.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the strikes hit the village of Al-Shafah, on the eastern bank of the Euphrates River, early this morning.
