(Previous Incident Code: I601)

One woman died and others were injured after a suspected Coalition airstrike destroyed a house.

As Associated Press reported: “Iraqi forces have repeatedly requested airstrikes in Mosul, often to kill teams of just two or three IS fighters armed with light weapons. Manhal Munir was sheltering in the basement of his home with his extended family when IS fighters took a position on his roof. They were targeted by an airstrike Sunday morning [July 1st]. The house collapsed. “I just pulled my youngest daughter out with me,” Munir said at a nearby medic station, the toddler on his lap. “My mother was stuck between two large blocks of cement. We tried to free her,” he said, still covered in dust and his eyes red with grief. “After two hours she died.”

Sawef Ateka later published a photograph with the caption “The child (Omar) who lost all his family members in the Old Mosul area and who remains a lonely orphan with no father and mother.” This may relate to strikes on the Old City area on July 2nd.

A senior Coalition official informed Airwars on July 5th that “It is primarily Coalition aircraft conducting AIR strikes in Mosul. It has been a number of weeks since the Iraqis flew there.”
