Airwars assessment
In its July 2017 civilian casualty report, the Coalition reported that it could not assess the credibility of an NGO report indicating civilian casualties in the vicinity of Mosul. In the report, the Coalition wrote: “April 30, 2017, near Mosul, Iraq, via NGO report: The report contained insufficient information on the time, location and details to assess its credibility.”
Airwars had previously been unaware of such a report, and has been unable to locate any related public report.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
