AhlulBayt News Agency - The Syrian Arab Air Force (SAAF) carried out a powerful series of airstrikes over Deir Ezzor City this morning that targeted the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham’s (ISIS) positions near the western bank of the Euphrates River.

In particular, the Syrian Air Force struck the Islamic State’s headquarters inside the Al-Rusafa District, killing several terrorist combatants while also destroying a half dozen armored vehicles.
