Four people were killed in a drone strike targeting Iran-backed groups in government-held eastern Syria on Wednesday.
Rami Abdel Rahman of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said: "Four people were killed and eight wounded in a drone strike near a weapons factory belonging to Iran-backed groups and near a truck loaded with weapons.
“It targeted a part of the city that is home to residences of top Iranian commanders and senior officers of Lebanon's Hezbollah movement, as well as an Iranian hospital to treat cholera patients.”
Wednesday's attack followed a series of drone strikes on January 30 that targeted a suspected Iranian weapons convoy in the province and killed 11 people.
There was no immediate word on who carried out the strike in Deir el-Zour.
