US-led Coalition Strike on Baghouz Kills at Least 50 Civilians - Syrian TV

Earlier in February, Syrian media reported that air strikes by the US-led international coalition on a refugee camp in the Syrian village of Baghouz in the country's southeast had killed or injured at least 80 civilians in two days.

The US-led international coalition has conducted airstrikes on a camp next to the Syrian village of Baghouz, Deir-ez-Zor province, killing about 50 people, according to the state news agency SANA.

The strike comes after the Syrian Foreign Ministry reportedly blamed the United States and the US-led coalition of crimes against humanity in connection with massive air strikes on the Syrian village of Baghouz in February that killed dozens of civilians.
