At least 18 fighters from a US-backed Kurdish militia fighting ISIS, the Syrian Democratic Forces, were killed on Tuesday when warplanes from the US-led coalition bombed their position by mistake. A statement issued by the coalition on Thursday said misidentification of the location in Tabqa, a number of kilometers west of the ISIS stronghold Raqqa, caused the tragic incident.
