The US-led coalition denied carrying out the airstrikes on the Iraqi city of Daquq that resulted in about 20 civilian deaths, the representative for the multinational operation Inherent Resolve said Saturday, Sputnik reports.
According to the representative, the coalition registers all claims of protocol breaches and seriously investigates them.
"At this time, we cannot associate the alleged civilian casualties with any Coalition strikes in the area. The Coalition adheres to targeting processes and procedures aimed to minimize risks to non-combatants," the operation representative told RIA Novosti.
