Damascus: At least 22 persons, including 10 children, have lost their lives in airstrikes from unidentified aircrafts in the Syrian province of Deir al-Zor on Wednesday. The airstrikes took place in a village controlled by Islamic State terrorists.

The death toll may go up as several sustained severe injuries. The injured, however, were rushed to the nearby hospital.

Syria, however, has witnessed several air strikes in the recent past. Security forces have cordoned off the area. The air strikes are suspected to be from Russia.

Other details are awaited.
