DEIR EZZOR, Apr. 16 (MNA) –ISIL terrorists have rocket-shelled the besieged neighborhood of Harabesh in Deir Ezzor city; 3 persons were reportedly killed, with 11 others injured, mostly children and women, a SANA reporter in the province said.

ISIL has been besieging Harabesh and other neighborhoods where around 1,300 families live in the eastern part of Deir Ezzor city for over 3 months, after the terrorists cut off the road connecting them to the rest of the city. Army helicopters airdrop food and medical supplies on semi-daily basis to alleviate the suffering of locals.
