[NPASYRIA] Five truffle hunters were killed on Friday in IEDs most likely left by Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems...
(ISIS) in the western countryside of Deir ez-Zor, eastern Syria.

A local source of the town of Ayash, in the western countryside of Deir ez-Zor, told North Press that three truffle hunters, including a member of National Defense Forces (NDF) of Syrian government, bit the dust after an IED left by ISIS went kaboom! in Ayash.

In a separated incident, an IED went kaboom! in the same area, causing the death of Hassan Thamer, a truffle hunter who works for a leader of the NDF, according to the source.

In addition, another IED went kaboom! in a car that was carrying truffle hunters in Jabal al-Bashari, west of Deir ez-Zor, resulting in the killing of the driver Muhammad al-Hamad who hails from the town of al-Shamitiya, west of Deir ez-Zor, another source told North Press.

On March 29, four truffle hunters bit the dust, including three women, and four others were maimed in an IED explosion, east of Homs Governorate, central Syria.
