Airwars assessment
A number of civilians were wounded by Coalition raids that struck a house, according to two local sources.
Euphrates Post reported that a house belonging to a civilian in al Ma’amari village was targeted by Coalition planes, leading to the “injury of 15 people.” Al Natek reported 10 wounded, and later named the house owner as “Mohammad Jassem al Huwait.” However this was disputed by a commentator, who noted “No brother the house is that of Ismail Ali al Huwait… he is my cousin and he had guests at his house Hajj Ahmad al Turki and Abboud and Jumma al Turki and thank God they are all well.”
Hassakah Youth Union also reported wounded civilians – but no deaths – “following raids by the international coalition.”
The local time of the incident is unknown.
