Unidentified helicopters have carried out an attack inside Syria along its border with Iraq, Syrian media says.

The official Syrian news agency Sana said the raid took place in the Bou Kamal border area, in eastern Syria.

One report said that the helicopters were American, but there is no independent confirmation.

The Sana news agency quoted residents as saying that the attack targeted a house in the area in which a man and his four sons and two workers died.
