White House Releases Limited Data on Civilian Casualties From Drone Strikes
Between 64 and 116 civilians have died in U.S. drone strikes against foreign terrorists in places like Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and North Africa, according to new numbers released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Strikes in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan were not included in these newly released numbers, as the Department of Defense has its own procedures for releasing such information in active U.S. war zones, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Friday, shortly before the information's release.
