RNA - The coalition's fighter jets stormed the village of Mazra'a Ya'arab near al-Mansoureh, killing a number of civilians, including the entire members of a family.  

 

Relevant reports said earlier this month that the US-led coalition fighter jets targeted the positions of the predominately Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in Northern Raqqa as well as residential areas in a village in Southern Raqqa, killing at least 13 civilians and wounding tens of others.

 

The coalition warplanes launched massive airstrikes on the village of Hanideh in Southwestern Raqqa, killing 13 civilians and injuring tens of others.

 

In the meantime, the fighter jets targeted SDF's positions in Northern Raqqa.

 

The US calls itself an ally of SDF, while it is an old ally of Turkey within the NATO as well. Turkey is at war with the Kurdish units of SDF in a number of regions. The US has not commented on the strikes yet.
