Monday 2 May – Typhoons struck a bunker and an anti-aircraft gun in western Iraq, while Tornados provided close air support to Iraqi forces in the north of the country…Typhoons provided further support to the Iraqi forces near Fallujah on Monday 2 May, striking a machine-gun team in a bunker and a 23mm anti-aircraft gun. In northern Iraq, Tornados used two Paveways to destroy a Daesh-held building and a nearby weapons store north of Mosul, then flew south to the Qayyarah region where Iraqi forces were engaged in a firefight with a group of terrorists manning a fortified position. Despite the close proximity of the friendly forces, very precise strikes with two Paveways and two Brimstones helped destroy the Daesh group.
