Four Syrian security personnel killed in IS attack: State media

Four Syrian security personnel were killed in an Islamic State (IS) group attack in the northern city of Raqa, which was recently taken by Damascus from Kurdish forces, state media reported on Monday.

Syria's interior ministry said in a statement that the "terrorist attack" targeted a checkpoint in the area, adding that one of the assailants was killed.

In its spokesperson's first audio message in two years, IS had called on its fighters Saturday to fight Syrian authorities.
