2/ š AOAV's investigation cross-referenced 950 strike reports from RAF press releases with Pentagon airstrike data, Airwars data, & AOAV's explosive violence monitor. The strikes occurred between March 2016 & March 2018, with five in Iraq & four in Syria, mostly around Mosul.
3/ šÆ The RAF has only accepted responsibility for one civilian death in 2018, despite AOAV identifying nine airstrike incidents likely to have caused civilian deaths during Operation Shader. This highlights concerns over RAF transparency. #OperationShader #Accountability
