Islamic State group fighters killed Thursday 20 Syrian soldiers and affiliated pro-government forces in two attacks on Damascus-controlled areas of the war-torn country, a war monitor said.
A total of "16 regime forces and pro-government gunmen were killed in an IS attack on a military bus in the eastern countryside of Homs province," said the Syrian Observatory for Human rights.
"Four regime forces were killed in another IS attack on a military site in the Albukamal countryside" in eastern Syria, the British-based monitor added.
