More than 64 civilians killed in 24 US-led coalition airstrikes over the past year
Sixty-four civilians were killed and eight were injured in 24 U.S.-led coalition airstrikes against Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria over the past year, the U.S. military said Wednesday, based on newly completed investigations. The cases announced on Wednesday include strikes from last November through September. And they range from one or two civilians killed to a March strike near Mosul, Iraq, that killed 10 civilians. The latest report, however, doesn’t include two air attacks in Syria in recent months that may have each killed dozens.
