A monitoring group says more than 2,800 civilians have lost their lives in three years as the US-led coalition purportedly fighting Daesh Takfiri terrorist group continues its aerial assaults against residential areas across Syria.

The so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported that 427 people, including 137 minors and 113 women, were killed in US-led aerial attacks against civilian areas in the conflict-plagued Arab country between May 23 and June 23 this year.

The Britain-based monitoring group added that the US-led air raids also resulted in the injury of hundreds of civilians, some of whom suffered permanent disabilities and had to have their limbs amputated. The US-led raids also caused massive destruction of residential buildings and civilian infrastructure.
