August 2021 Kabul drone strike (original) (raw)
On 29 August 2021, three days after the deadly suicide bombing at Kabul airport by Islamic State (IS) that killed many Afghan civilians and U.S. soldiers, an unmanned drone attack by the United States killed 10 civilians in Kabul, Afghanistan, including 7 children. The U.S. initially said that the vehicle targeted in the strike had visited an IS safe house and that there had been a number secondary explosions, implying explosives at the scene, but eyewitness and later independent investigations disputed this. The U.S. later confirmed that the target of the strike, a Toyota Corolla carrying aid workers, was a case of mistaken identity, and that only civilians had been killed in the strike. No U.S. personnel faced disciplinary action for the attack.
