Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation: coalition planes in Iraq bombed the funeral procession


According to him, the Russian intelligence services “recorded 22 for the departure of coalition aircraft led by the US, which hit 19 on various targets in Iraq, including a strike by a pair of aircraft on the Dakuk settlement, located in 30 kilometers south of Kirkuk.” . However, according to the agency, there were no terrorists in Dakuk.

"Judging by eyewitnesses, for the accumulation of militants aviation coalition adopted a funeral procession. Dozens of Iraqi civilians, including women and children, were killed, ”Konashenkov said.

"Such deadly attacks on peaceful settlements, having all the signs of war crimes," become for the coalition forces "almost daily routine."

On the "wrong blow" reported the Arab media. According to their data, 20 died and 45 people were injured.

The command of the Western coalition forces denies any involvement in the airstrikes.

“At the moment, we cannot connect the alleged civilian casualties with any of the coalition air strikes in the area,” the command representative said, adding that the coalition “minimizes all possible risks to the civilian population.”

    That's right, there is no need to remain silent about the "achievements" of the Western coalition. "It's just a mistake" - cynicism flourishes.

      The command of the Western coalition forces denies any involvement in the airstrikes.


      After another "miss" in Syria, why not shoot down an "unidentified" plane?
      If the coalition still denies.
      Or does the target become apparent only after the "partners" leave the air defense zone?
      After all, such attacks on civilians can and should be attributed to terrorism.

        All this is good, but where are the natives?
        How long will Russia fight for them?
        It is clear that for themselves, but they are killed then by their peaceful ...
        The paradox, whoever "wets" them more, is their friend and master!
        And this is happening all over the world !!!
        The Yankees bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and as a result, the japas are best friends. Hans extinguished the Poles, now friends, and Russia, which has saved them more than once, is the best ENEMY !? The same with Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, etc., I am silent about Ukraine in general ...
        It's time for us to learn how to fight with the hands (and resources) of our friends, and not our own. Do not hell they sit out. The Arab world respects ONLY FORCE! If we showed power, then we need to make them dance to our harmonica laughing

          You are confusing something in our relations with the Poles - they have never been our friends. In vain - once, some way, eighteen fought.

        09.23. GSH-18! And if weddings and funeral processions happened by chance under the protection of air defense? Who, then, would have accidentally bombed the brave pilots? Sea, sand, your airfield ...? What to do with such accidents? Are they possible? Why are air defense systems not accidentally bombed? But where there is no air defense, there are completely random regular bombing. Bombing Dresden was certainly nicer than Moscow. After all, not everyone came back from Moscow. hi

      Of course it’s right, you need to shout, and ask all interested UN members to shout, and not to forget in two days, and poke them in a few months.
      And I can only sympathize with the Iraqis and recommend "more than three, do not get together", these "warriors of light" are extremely dangerous when they become more active in their struggle for "democracy." Moreover, they are most dangerous for the civilian population.

      Bombing a hospital, school, wedding or funeral procession becomes a direct trademark of the beginning of some kind of "operation" against daish. But not a single barmkale was injured. No losses

      Still easier. In a couple of weeks they will announce that the US Air Force computer networks were lying. We got up with difficulty, again thanks to a miracle.
      The most masterpiece excuse in recent years 10.
      Well, if the coalition doesn’t take over Mosul before the inauguration, apparently, it will suddenly turn out that the insidious Russians cut the cables wink

    If you are your bomb
    Do not hit the terrorists
    And hit, say, school
    That is not worth the grief
    Just state right away
    What, they say, the Russians bombed
    Well, and your planes
    Do not fly for a long time

    You can add excuses.
    They first started.
    We didn’t want it to be wind (vibes from space, program malfunction, etc.)
    They themselves are to blame, there is nothing to wear in the same clothes as the militants.
    We can be mistaken, because we want to bring democracy to Iraq in exchange for a little oil.

    And what will the apologists for the worthlessness of Hephaestus, and the excellent TTX of JDAMs and other Hellfires say? Atalef and Professor go to the podium :))

    You can’t hide your affairs in Iraq behind the Russian accusations.
    The command of the Western coalition forces denies any involvement in the airstrikes.

    If this is not a coalition, then aliens again? Learned to lie perfectly, and with an honest face on the face and "clean" eyes.

    Russia behaves as if playing in a sandbox, some kind of truce, conversations, resentment and trying to sit on two chairs. This is a War, which means you need to do everything to win, It's easy to start a war, but it's difficult to end it. I have a feeling that our the strategists don't even know what to do next, then we introduce the planes, then we deduce it, as if the plan had arrived, bombed, won. They play with spillikins and do not fight. Yesterday Peskov said in an interview (attention) "Putin and Erdogan have a very trusting relationship" and this is against the background of the Turkish army's offensive in Syria, which is essentially aggression. they threw off the bombs and flew away, the Americans are doing their job in this regard and they don't give a damn about everything, we go make excuses, I don’t understand what’s happening, but in my opinion, wars do not win

      Syria is a sandbox for Russia, as Spain was in its time. If you remove the verbal shell, it immediately becomes clear that the children of the country have turned into training grounds, where future opponents tried out some methods of warfare. In such "sandboxes" big politicians behave like in a kindergarten. Just like in your comment. smile The situation allows ... for the time being.

    This "coalition" is not capable of anything more, just bombing weddings, turning them into funerals, and then bombing the funeral processions. These are ordinary war crimes that will never be investigated properly, and none of the real culprits will be punished.

    At the moment, we cannot associate the alleged civilian casualties with any of the coalition’s airstrikes in the area, ”said a spokesman for the command, adding that the coalition“ minimizes all possible risks to the civilian population. ”
    The bombardment of funeral processions is becoming traditional. It is understandable, the people walking in this procession cannot offer resistance, because it is not customary to carry MANPADS with you to such events. That is exactly what the "fearless" NATO pilots need. Stinky male goats. Subsequently, when they poke their noses into their bunch, Nightmare-apa will declare to the UN, like - "a mistake came out, with whom it does not happen, but Russia is still to blame."

    The "exceptional" and their henchmen have lost the remnants of conscience ... The Belgians are bombing civilians in the suburbs of Aleppo ... No, it's not us. We were not there, we did not fly. The same story in Iraq. But here is a tragic mistake ... War is like war: anything is possible. We are not to blame. And the "world community" does not see or hear all these crimes. Not a word of condemnation. It is regrettable. But all the time we have to make excuses for the acts that we did not commit, for the provocations committed and committed against us.

    It looks more like they found mattresses another way to replenish the ranks of Isil and others like them.
    Because where will they turn now, who has survived, that they will tell their relatives ... there are planes, then the enemy (they could bomb), and it’s already difficult to prove anything like that.

    Yes, and still went infa that mattresses paint their planes under ours ...
