A spokesman for the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia said the death toll from a triple truck bomb attack in a town in northeastern Syria on Friday had risen to 50 to 60 people, with more than 80 others wounded. One of the blasts occurred outside a hospital, another at a market and the third in a residential area in the YPG-controlled town of Tel Tamer, Redur Xelil said via Internet messaging service. A statement on the website of Kurdish security force Asayish blamed the attack on Islamic State. The town is in the mostly Kurdish-controlled province of Hasaka.
