US admits airstrike in Iraq killed over 100 civilians

The United States on Thursday admitted its airstrike on Islamic State snipers in Mosul in March killed at least 105 Iraqi civilians. The Pentagon said it had targeted two snipers with "precision-guided munition" but the airstrike detonated explosives placed in the building by ISIS. In another incident, US-led coalition air strikes in Syria reportedly left 35 civilians dead on Thursday.
