Airwars assessment
A single source – the local Facebook group of the Jarjria tribe – said that a son of the family of Muhammad Daham Murad al-Jarjari from the village of Jasa was killed in an airstrike on Yarmouk neighbourhood in West Mosul.
It was unclear from the report who carried out the strike. In its June casualty report the Coalition denied responsibility: “April 9, 2017, near Mosul, Iraq via social media: After a review of available information it was assessed that no Coalition strikes were conducted in the geographic area that correspond to the report of civilian casualties.”
A Coalition official confirmed to Airwars that this related to the Yarmouk allegation.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
