RAF Drone Kills ISIS Biological Weapons Engineer Amid Human Rights Capture Restrictions
Nov 28, 2024, 09:33 AM
The Royal Air Force (RAF) conducted a drone strike that killed an ISIS fighter who was reportedly a biological weapons engineer. The operation was carried out because European human rights laws prevented the capture of the individual. Reports indicate that the individual could not be handed over to Syria or taken to Britain, necessitating the drone strike. The use of a Reaper drone in the operation highlights the complexities of balancing human rights considerations with national and international security concerns.
