US-led coalition air raids killed at least 35 civilians, including many women and children, in an eastern Syrian town held by ISIL, according to a war monitor, Al Jazeera reports.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said the strikes on Thursday hit a series of residential buildings in Mayadeen, a town in Deir Az Zor province.
"Among the dead are at least 26 relatives of IS fighters, many of them women and children, including Syrians and Moroccans," said Rami Abdel Rahman, head of SOHR, told the AFP news agency.
