A drone strike intended for an Islamic State stronghold killed 30 pine nut farmers in Afghanistan
People attend the funeral of the victims of U.S. drone strike in Khogyani district of Nangarhar province, Afghanistan, September 19th 2019. At least 30 civilians were after U.S.-backed drone strike against Islamic State accidentally targets farmers in Afghanistan. There has been a surge in militant attacks in Afghanistan in the past few weeks ahead of the presidential elections set for September 28th.
The errant drone strike on Wednesday is only one example of the many horrific consequences of America’s longest war, which has resulted in thousands and thousands of dead civilians and an fear among the living that they could be next at any moment, even while lying down in a tent after a day of picking pine nuts.
President Trump has claimed on multiple occasions that ISIS has been defeated, most notably last December when he did so in announcing he would pull all U.S. troops out of Syria, before later agree to a partial withdrawal. “We have beaten them and we have beaten them badly,” Trump said of ISIS at the time.
