Wednesday 17 August – Typhoons destroyed an armed truck in western Iraq, a Reaper eliminated a group of Daesh extremists in northern Iraq…A Reaper was again in action near Qayyarah on Wednesday 17 August, when it successfully engaged yet another group of Daesh terrorists armed with rocket-propelled grenades; a number of secondary explosions followed the impact of the Hellfire missile as the grenades caught fire. Typhoons also continued their patrols over western Iraq, along the Euphrates valley to the north-west of Ramadi, and here they used a Paveway IV to destroy an armed truck which the extremists had tried in vain to conceal under a large vehicle shelter.
