Up to 14 civilians were reportedly killed in or near the Al Hamwazi hotel near Raqqa’s new bridge, however it was not clear who was responsible.
Two sources, Tal Abyad and Eye on Raqqa, alleged that the deaths were caused by mines that were detonated in the hotel by SDF militias and their reporting was corroborated by two further sources who claimed the deaths were caused by explosions inside the hotel, but did not mention their cause.
A further two sources alleged that airstrikes were responsible and only one of those sources, Al Hasaka Rasd, alleged that the Coalition was responsible.
Four of the civilian casualties were identified by a number of sources with reportedly up to 10 others who remained unidentified.
