BEIRUT, Lebanon: Fighting between pro-Iranian groups supporting the Syrian government and Kurdish-led forces killed 13 people, mostly civilians, a war monitor said on Friday.
Six children were among the victims of intense shelling of Dahla in the eastern province of Deir Ezzor, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said.
Fighting erupted on Wednesday when pro-Iranian fighters attacked Kurdish-held areas, according to the Britain-based monitor, which relies on a network of sources inside Syria.
The Kurdish-dominated Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) also reported that 11 civilians, mostly women and children, were killed in Dahla.
