The international coalition has conducted a landing operation in the countryside of Deir Ezzor of Syria, said the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR).

During the landing operation, persons - likely to be the coalition's agents - were moved from the area, said the rights group in a press release on Sunday.

Those people are likely agents planted into Daesh-controlled territories to gather information about the terrorist group, according to the statement.

There were previous landings by the coalition in Deir Ezzor, including ones to fly Daesh members of European nationalities from the province, the statement noted.
