Airwars has tracked thousands of reported events in which Russian strikes in Syria or Coalition military actions in Iraq and Syria have allegedly killed civilians.

In March to May 2016 for example, alleged Russian incidents fell by 75% – most likely as a result of a regional ceasefire then in place.
