American jets targeting an ISIS 'weapons facility' in Raqqa, Syria "may have killed an unknown number of civilians" during an airstrike Tuesday according to statement from US Central Command.

As RT notes, Raqqa, under control of jihadist rebels since March 2013, was declared the capital of the self-proclaimed Caliphate in January 2014. In October that year, Washington launched a campaign against IS, eventually named “Inherent Resolve.” The US war effort is coordinated by CENTCOM, from its headquarters in Tampa, Florida.
