A military source within the NDF said Abdulsamad Nawara, 30, was killed in an ISIS landmine explosion while searching for truffles in the southwestern desert of Deir ez-Zor.

Nawara was accompanying a group of civilian truffle hunters, the source added.

The landmines planted in the desert claim the lives of dozens of civilians and military personnel each year, especially those working as truffle hunters.

On Friday, five individuals bit the dust, including one member of the NDF, in three separate incidents in the western countryside of Deir ez-Zor.

On March 23, three people were killed by a landmine likely left by ISIS while hunting for truffles in the western countryside of Deir ez-Zor.
