Coalition aircraft allegedly destroyed an \u201cISIS-owned digger,<\/em>\u201d killing a man local monitoring group Raqaa is Being Slaughtered Silently described as a civilian driver: \u201cCoalition planes targeted a drilling vehicle belonging to Daesh which is used for digging berms in the area of Tal Al Bayi\u2019a. This led to the burning of the vehicle, and to the death of the driver<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

The combatant status of such individuals in the eyes of the coalition remains unclear. However in one Facebook entry<\/a> a man naming himself as Abd Al Kareem Mohammad said that the victim was a family member, and a non-combatant: \u201cIS threatened him and forced him to work with them. The poor man has just had his first baby boy born twenty days ago. Don\u2019t judge people from their appearances. Some people have very little choice<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a related incident, Buzzfeed cited an eyewitness<\/a> to a nearby Coalition strike on an ISIL checkpoint. As the 28-year old mother of three fled with her children, she reported seeing the body of a neighbor who\u2019d been driving across the bridge carrying groceries. She complained to the news site: \u201cWe used to feel safe when we saw the American airstrikes. Now my daughters are afraid to go to the school, because they say there is ISIS and there is American airstrikes<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the first of their March 2020 civilian casualty reports, the US-led Coalition assessed reports that they were responsible for civilian harm in this strike as “non-credible”, stating that after a review of all available records it was determined that, more likely than not, civilian casualties did not occur as a result of a Coalition action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","country":[246],"belligerent":[249],"strike_type":[],"cause_of_death":[],"targeted_belligerents":[],"strike_status":[],"civilian_harm_reported":[834],"civilian_harm_status":[837],"belligerent_assessment":[867],"geolocation_assessor":[],"declassified_document":[900],"geolocation_status":[920],"observation":[],"munition":[],"casualty":[957],"impact":[],"documentation":[],"citation":[],"geolocation_observation":[],"protected_persons":[],"infrastructure":[],"infrastructure_affiliation":[],"infrastructure_declared_target":[],"infrastructure_destruction":[],"profession":[],"class_list":["post-31105","civ","type-civ","status-publish","hentry","country-syria","belligerent-coalition","civilian_harm_reported-yes","civilian_harm_status-fair","belligerent_assessment-non-credible-unsubstantiated","declassified_document-no","geolocation_status-unassigned","casualty-men"],"acf":{"latitude":35.9505639,"longitude":39.0094148,"geolocation_accuracy":"city","multiple_location_incident":null,"geolocations":[{"latitude":35.9505639,"longitude":39.0094148,"geolocation_accuracy":"city","primary_coordinate":true}],"geojson":null,"show_geolocation_caption":false,"geojson_caption":"","media_geolocation":null,"geolocation_notes":"Reports of the incident mention the city of Ar Raqqah (\u0627\u0644\u0631\u0642\u0629\u200e), for which the generic coordinates are: 35.9505639, 39.0094148.
