Airwars: Dozens of Iraqi Civilians Reportedly Killed in Airstrikes Last Week
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The journalistic monitoring group Airwars says dozens of Iraqi civilians
were reportedly killed last week in airstrikes carried out by the
U.S.-led coalition or the U.S.-backed Iraqi Air Force. Much of the
bombing occurred in Mosul's Yarmouk neighborhood. On April 10,
airstrikes there reportedly killed more than 30 civilians, including
children. The following day, as many as 13 civilians were reported
killed in airstrikes that destroyed homes in the same neighborhood. Six
more civilians were reportedly killed in airstrikes in Anbar province
that same day.
