Amman: Five Syrians Thursday were killed and more than 40 others injured when a land mine left by “ISIS” terrorists exploded in the Kabajib area in southwestern Deir Ezzor.

The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) noted that a land mine left behind by ISIS terrorists exploded in a truck carrying a group of civilians on their way to search for mushrooms in the Kabajib area in the southwestern countryside.

The director of Al-Assad Hospital in Deir Ezzor, Mamoun Hiza, told SANA’s reporter that more than 45 people had been admitted to the hospital following the explosion, adding that five succumbed to their wounds.

On Monday, 10 Syrians were killed and 12 others injured when two mines left by ISIS agents exploded in Hama.
