[PRESSTV] The US-led coalition’s Arclight airstrikes on Dayr al-Zawr,
...we’re more accustomed to seeing it spelt as Deir Ezzor...
eastern Syria, killed 26 civilians, including 14 children, on Friday morning, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

According to the war monitor, the civilians, including 14 children and nine women, were all members of ISIS families.
Ah. The mixup is explained — those aren’t civilians, they’re assigned human shields giving their blood for Allah and the cause.
The airstrikes reportedly targeted a ISIS hideout in the town of Hajin, located along the Euphrates River, south of Dayr al-Zawr.

The coalition’s raids earlier killed another seven civilians in the nearby village of al-Shaafa on Thursday, Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman.

Hajin’s civilians were also targeted by the airstrikes of the so-called military coalition’s fighter jets last Saturday, when 15 people, mostly women and kiddies, were killed.

Late last month, Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
Bashar al-Ja'afari confirmed at a UN Security Council meeting that the US-led coalition had once again used white phosphorus bombs against Hajin.
