Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Yesterday we had a report that 18 were killed,16 maimed, and 50+ missing in an ISIS ambush while hunting truffles somewhere in the Deir ez-Zor desert. Today we have a landmine location, but no mention of ISIS.

[Regnum] A mine explosion in the Syrian province of Deir ez-Zor killed six mushroom pickers heading into the desert to collect truffles, radio station Sham FM reported.

“Six people were killed and two were injured as a result of a mine planted by armed groups in the area of the village of Haribsha,” reporters said.

According to the radio station, a car with civilians ran into a mine. It is noted that mushroom pickers in Syria regularly die due to mines.

As Regnum reported, on April 9, 2023, six civilians were killed in a mine explosion planted by militants in the Syrian province of Deir ez-Zor. Residents were collecting truffles, which grow in dry desert areas in Syria. Terrorist groups continue to operate in the desert areas of northern and northeastern Syria.

#2 There are stories of rats trained to sniff out land mines. I bet you could teach them to do truffles too.
