Rami Abdulrahman, who runs the Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights, said 19 explosions were heard during the air strikes in
al-Shadadi in the northeastern province of Hasaka on Thursday.
One civilian was also killed in the air strikes, he said.
The U.S.-led alliance started bombing Islamic State targets in
Syria in September as part of a strategy aimed at rolling back
the group's territorial gains in Syria and Iraq.
Jordanian war planes participating in the alliance carried out
bombing raids against Islamic State targets on Thursday,
Jordanian state TV reported, without giving the location of the
air strikes.
