Coalition missile strikes have killed 42 people including 13 civilians in what remains of the ISIL terrorist group’s last holdout in eastern Syria, a war monitor said.

The UK-based Syrian opposing Observatory said short-range missiles late Friday hit homes on farmland near the village of Baghouz, killing 42 people.

Among them were 13 civilians, the Britain-based monitor said.

They included seven Syrians linked to ISIL including three children from the same family, as well as six Iraqi non-combatants, it said.
