(Previous Incident Code: S762)

At least two civilians were killed in a Coalition strike along the road between Raqqa and Deir Ezzor, according to local reports.

Raqqa is Being Silently Slaughtered reported the death of a man along with two others “following a Coalition raid on the main road between Raqqa and al Mansoura.”

Radiokull reported a higher figure of 5 killed along the road, but did not identify any of them.

The Syrian Observatory meanwhile reported only the death of one man along the roadway, but also blamed the Coalition. Other accounts put the death toll at 2, including a report posted by Tabaqa Media Center which identified a second victim.

In April 2019 the Coalition announced that it had classed this allegation of civilian harm as non-credible, noting: “After review of all available strike records it was determined that more likely than not civilian casualties did not occur as a result of a Coalition strike.”
