A roadside bomb struck a bus carrying teachers in Manbij killing one person Saturday, the latest in a spate of attacks in the northern Syrian city since mid-January, a monitoring group said.
The device exploded as the bus passed, killing the driver and wounding at least four others, Rami Abdel-Rahman, head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, told AFP.
Sherfan Darwish, a spokesman for Manbij’s military council, reported on Twitter a “terrorist explosion with an explosive device against a vehicle of teachers.”
Manbij is a former ISIL group stronghold that is now held by a military council affiliated to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
