Airwars assessment
On January 30th 2018, RBSS reported that “The bodies of Abdul Hakim al-A’bka and Abdulkhaliq al-A’bka were taken out of the rubble after they had been shelled about four months ago by the international coalition aircraft on the town of Raqqa.”
The men were reportedly from one family.
In Amnesty and Airwars’s joint April 2019 report “War in Raqqa: Rhetoric versus Reality” it was uncovered by Amnesty through field research that the victims died in an airstrike which killed 26 civilians on the 8th October 2017. The victims have therefore been removed from this incident and reside under S1411a.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
The victims were named as:
Family members (1)
