BEIRUT: A strike on a pro-Iran militia convoy in eastern Syria near the border with Iraq killed around 15 people overnight, a war monitor said Wednesday, without specifying who carried it out.

The strike hit a convoy of “fuel tankers and trucks loaded with weapons,” in the the Albu Kamal area of the border, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The US military told reporters in Iraq that it had no involvement in the raid.
