Wednesday 30 August – Tornados and Typhoons supported the Syrian Democratic Forces in Raqqa, striking five Daesh positions…Three flights of Royal Air Force Tornados and Typhoons provided close air support on Wednesday 30 August to the Syrian Democratic Forces fighting to liberate Raqqa from Daesh control. Five attacks were successfully conducted, which eliminated three sniper positions, a light machine-gun team, and a group of extremists armed with rocket-propelled grenades. Each of the attacks required careful planning and execution by our aircrew, given the proximity of the Syrian Democratic Forces to the desired targets.
