A civilian was tortured to death by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), after being accused of collaborating with the Islamic State (ISIS) in Deir Ezzor province, local activists said Tuesday March 26.
The man was subjected to electric shock and brutal torture along with another ISIS fighter in the town of al-Basria.
Also, five family members (a father, mother and three sons) were killed in a land mine explosion in al-Basria town.
On Saturday, the SDF declared the capture of Baghouz, the Islamic State’s last piece of territory in Deir Ezzor province, eliminating its rule over a self-proclaimed “Caliphate”, but the jihadists remain a threat, with followers around the world.
Meanwhile, ISIS said that overnight on Tuesday it had launched a deadly attack on Kurdish forces in northern Syria, the first such claim by the group since US-backed forces proclaimed the capture of its last territory in Syria last week.
