In an internal investigation, the Pentagon on Thursday admitted that American forces had misidentified an intended al Qaeda target during a drone strike in Syria in 2023, killing a civilian in the process.
Citing classified material, the U.S. Central Command stated in a statement that it was unable to disclose many investigational details to the public.
Although the strike complied with U.S. policy and the law of armed conflict, the investigation "uncovered several areas that could be strengthened." #Pentagon #AlQaeda #Syriaattack #USAttack #USattacksSyria #SyrianStrikes #CENTCOM #USnews #Worldnews #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~PR.320~GR.155~GR.124~HT.318~
