Two members of the British special forces have been wounded in an attack by ISIS fighters in Syria, according to the Kurdish news agency Rudaw.
The UK's Ministry of Defence told CNN it would not comment on special forces, but did not deny the media reports.
The soldiers were hit by an ISIS missile attack on a Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) base in the east Syrian town of Shafa, Deir Ezzor, Rudaw said. A Kurdish fighter was killed in the attack.
"Due to a smart missile attack by ISIS, a fighter of the YPG was killed and another wounded, in addition to two British soldiers," the news agency quoted an SDF official as saying.
The two British soldiers are in a stable condition, the official added.
The attack comes just three weeks after US President Donald Trump declared the terror group defeated and that he planned to withdraw 2,000 US troops from Syria.
