Sunday 10 April – Tornados attacked a suspected headquarters in northern Iraq, as well as a rocket base and a sniper team…On Sunday 10 April, two flights of Tornado GR4s operated over northern Iraq to support Kurdish ground forces. One flight working east of Mosul demolished a Daesh-held building, suspected to be a local headquarters, using Paveway bombs. The Tornados then hit a building being used to stockpile rockets with another Paveway and used a Brimstone missle to account for a set of rocket launch rails nearby. The second Tornado flight provided support to Kurdish troops near Qayyarah who were coming under fire from a sniper team – they were successfully silenced by a further Paveway.
