US-led Coalition says it BOMBED Mosul site with 200 civilians killed

The US-led coalition against the Islamic State group said that it bombed a neighbourhood in west Mosul, Iraq where civilians were reportedly killed 200 by aerial bombing.

An initial review of strike data… indicates that, at the request of the Iraqi security forces, the coalition struck (ISIS) fighters and equipment, March 17, in west Mosul at the location corresponding to allegations of civilian casualties,’ it said in a statement released on Saturday.

Iraqi officials and witnesses say that strikes in west Mosul have killed dozens of people in recent days, but the number of victims could not be independently confirmed, and the toll from the specific strike referenced by the coalition was unclear.
