Airwars Assessment
(Previous Incident Code: S883)
A civilian male was killed in an alleged Coalition airstrike on Raqqa, local sources reported. All five sources identified the victim by name like they all also alleged that the Coalition was responsible.
The victim was reportedly killed in his home near Al Jaraksa mosque, Q_Alenezy reported via Twitter.
On February 4th 2021 the US-led Coalition released in their monthly CIVCAS report an assessment that the event was deemed non-credible: “After a review of all
available records it was determined that, more likely than not, civilian casualties did not
occur as a result of a Coalition action”, due to “insufficient information to assess that, more likely than not, a Coalition action resulted in civilian casualties”.
