Washington – Dozens of people have been killed in drone strikes by US forces on civilians in Syria, which the then-government has denied publication.
In this regard, the American newspaper “New York Times” has revealed that the United States deliberately covered up the killings of civilians and unarmed civilians in Syria.
New York Times The Associated Press reported on Saturday that it had spent months gathering details of the attacks. The newspaper said that in addition to obtaining information from secret documents, it also interviewed military personnel directly involved in the attacks.
According to the newspaper report, a US warplane carried out a series of drone strikes near the town of Baghoz in March 2019.
The report said the warplane dropped a bomb on a large gathering of women and children sheltering by a river. More bombs were dropped on survivors, the report said.
The report added that more than 80 people were killed in the attacks. Most of them were reportedly innocent civilians.
The newspaper also reported that someone in the military had called for an investigation into the incident, saying that the airstrikes could be a war crime. Was
