DAMASCUS: US military helicopters attacked a farm in eastern Syria near the Iraqi border on Sunday, killing eight civilians, including five members of the same family, Syria said.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry summoned the US charge d’affaires in Damascus to protest over the raid, Syria’s state news agency SANA reported after state television said US soldiers stormed a building in the area during the raid.

‘Syria condemns this aggressive act and holds American forces responsible for this aggression and all of its repercussions,’ SANA said, quoting a government official. The Iraqi charge d’affaires had also been summoned.
