According to the information received, Islamic State or ISIS terrorists attacked villagers collecting truffles in eastern Syria on Wednesday. 18 people died in this attack, while 18 people were injured. The truffles the villagers were collecting are a seasonal fruit that is sold at a high price. Many people in Syria go out to collect them, because 90 percent of the population here is below the poverty line.

Fear of kidnapping of 50 people

Regarding this incident, Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that about 50 people are also missing in the attack. It is feared that they have been kidnapped by IS terrorists. The Observatory said the dead also included four members of pro-government national defense forces.

Local media claimed 44 people died

According to government media house Dama Post, the death toll is said to be 44. According to Dama Post, this is the deadliest attack ever carried out by the Islamic State group. The attack took place in a desert area near the city of Kobazeb in the eastern province of Deir al-Zour, bordering Iraq.

The situation in Syria is very bad

This country is going through a bad phase of poverty. Not only this, it is suffering badly from terrorism. American and Israeli attacks on the fighters here have been happening several times in recent times. The condition of this country struggling with terrorism and poverty is very deplorable. More than 90 percent of the population here is living in extreme poverty. The earthquake that occurred a year ago had further shaken the normal life and economy of this country, from which the country has not been able to recover completely.
