Friday 17 August – Tornados demolished a building occupied by Daesh in northern Iraq, and killed a terrorist on foot…Armed reconnaissance patrols continued to be flown daily by RAF aircraft over Syria and Iraq, and on Friday 17 August, a Daesh target was identified in northern Iraq. Terrorists had occupied a large building in the desert, a number of miles to the west-north-west of Bayji. Once a coalition surveillance aircraft had checked the surrounding area for any signs of civilian presence, a pair of Tornados conducted an attack with Paveway bombs which demolished the building and also destroyed a vehicle used by the terrorists. A further terrorist was observed on foot close by after the attack, and was struck by a Brimstone missile.
