The US-led coalition committed a new massacre in the countryside of the northern Raqqa province, leaving over 10 civilians killed.


Identical local and media sources said warplanes of the coalition launched in the past 24 hours airstrikes on areas in the northern and western countryside of Raqqa.

The sources confirmed that two people were killed in Aghdban village and 9 others, including 5 children, were also killed in al-Sweidiyeh al-Kabira village.

According to the sources, the death toll from the attacks is likely to rise as a large number of people were also reported injured due to the strikes, some of them being seriously wounded.

The US coalition aircrafts have also been systematically targeting infrastructure in Syria under the pretext of fighting ISIS terrorist organization, destroying several strategic bridges in Raqqa and the eastern Deir Ezzor province.
