Two civilians, including a man and a woman, were reportedly killed by mortar fire in the village of Kasrat Afnan, south of Raqqa, however it was not clear who was responsible.
Jisr TV, Shahba Press and the Syrian Network for Human Rights reported that ISIL were responsible for the deaths whereas Al Hasaka Arabea stated that the deaths were caused by an exchange of mortar fire between ISIL and the US-backed SDF, but did not lay blame on any party.
The only remaining source – Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently – did not make any claims as to who was responsible.
