Raqqa, Jun 6 (IBNS): At least 35 Syrian army soldiers were killed and dozens others were injured as they clashed with Islamic State's (ISIS) fighters near the border of Raqqa province in northeastern Syria, media reports said.

According to ARA News, the clashes broke out between the Syrian regime’s forces and ISIS militants near the Tabqa town on Sunday evening.
