Unknown flight attack leaves casualties of Iran-backed militants east Syria
DEIR EZ-ZOR, Syria (North Press) – Seven militants of Iranian-backed militias were killed and ten others were wounded on Wednesday in an unknown aerial attack on the polyclinics building of the militias in the city center of Deir ez-Zor, east Syria.
A military source from the Syrian government forces said an unknown flight targeted with two missiles the polyclinics building that is run by Iranian-backed militias in al-Hamidiya neighborhood.
The attack resulted in the killing of three Iranian-backed militants and four others, whose identity has not been realized being military personnel or civilians, and the wounding of ten others as an initial toll, according to the source.
The source suggested that the shelling most likely occurred due to a truck laden with logistic materials for the Iranian-backed militants that was parked in front of the polyclinics building on Tuesday and was guarded by Iranian-backed militants.
On Nov. 8, 2022, unidentified aircraft targeted several posts and vehicles of Iranian-backed militants on the Syrian-Iraqi border, killing 18 militants, including a leader, and injuring seven others.
The Syrian government forces and Iranian-backed militias run vast swathes of the Syrian Desert that has recently witnessed several battles between the government forces and Iranian militias on one hand and the Islamic State Organization (ISIS) on the other.
