On May 12, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights claimed that at least 27 pro-government fighters, including 11 Iranians, had been killed in the May 10 Israeli strike on Syria.
“At least 27 pro-regime fighters were killed: six Syrian soldiers and 21 foreign fighters, including 11 Iranians,” Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the SOHR, said.
The SHOR revelaed that the initial claimed number of 23 was updated due to “the death of wounded or missing persons whose deaths have been confirmed”.
At the same time, pro-government sources say that only 3 people were killed and 2 others were injured in the May 10 Israeli strike.
