Monitor: Four Years of Coalition Strikes on Syria Kill 3,300 Civilians
(AFP-France 24) The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Sunday that U.S.-led coalition air strikes against the Islamic State in Syria had killed 3,331 civilians since 2014. "Among those killed are 826 children and 615 women," said Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman. The coalition puts the toll at just over 1,000 civilians in both Syria and Iraq, and says it does all it can to prevent civilian deaths.
