A multi-partisan activist group established to expose and resist US imperialism, corpora-terrorism, and the New World Order
US-led coalition killed 300 Syrian civilians in 11 probed strikes – Amnesty | 26 Oct 2016 | Around 300 civilians were killed in eleven airstrikes conducted by the US-led coalition in Syria, which Amnesty International investigated for its latest report. Amnesty says the US must come clean about the civilian toll of its fight against Islamic State. Amnesty suspects that US Central Command (CENTCOM), which directs coalition airstrikes in Syria, “may have…carried out unlawful attacks” in Syria, failing to take necessary measures to prevent civilian killings. “We fear the US-led coalition is significantly underestimating the harm caused to civilians in its operations in Syria,” said Lynn Maalouf, Deputy Director for Research at Amnesty International's Beirut regional office.
