US-led strikes in Syria kill 170 jihadis in 48 hours: activists

Airstrikes by a U.S.-led coalition against ISIS in northeastern Syria have killed around 170 jihadis in the past 48 hours, activists said Tuesday.

"The jihadis were killed in the past 48 hours in the province of Hassakeh, nearly all of them in very intense airstrikes by the international coalition which is helping Kurdish forces in the area," said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
