Report Date

November 28, 2015

The following day, Friday 27 November, a Reaper was again active over Ramadi, where it assisted a coalition air strike on a terrorist-held building.

The Reaper then observed a fuel tanker which had been adapted to be a large booby-trap; this was positioned in an area from which the civilian population had fled, and which lay in the path of the Iraqi advance. A precision attack with a Hellfire missile safely destroyed the tanker.

A second Reaper supported the Kurds south of Sinjar, and conducted two successful attacks with its Hellfires, destroying two terrorist vehicles, one of which was a car-bomb.
