Two people were killed in separate drone strikes yesterday on a car and a motorcycle in Syria, rescuers said.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the twin drone strikes in the Idlib region but a US-led coalition in Syria has carried out past strikes on extremists in the area.
Earlier this year, the United States said it killed several commanders of Al Qaeda’s Syria affiliate Hurras Al Din in the area.
The group had recently announced it was breaking up on the orders of the interim government set up after the overthrow of Bashar Al Assad in December.
US troops are deployed in Syria as part of a US-led coalition to fight the ISIS.
US Central Command did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
During a meeting in Riyadh last month, US President Donald Trump called on his Syrian counterpart Ahmed Al Sharaa to help Washington to prevent a resurgence by ISIS.
Syria, meanwhile, issued a conservative new dress code yesterday requiring women to wear burkinis or full-body swimwear on all public beaches, the latest cultural shift. The Tourism Ministry said the new guidelines were made in ‘the requirements of public interest’.
