@civic @AzmatZahra This year, along with partner civil society organisations, Airwars presented the DoD with a series of recommendations to reduce the number of civilians killed.

We will review the document fully in the coming days to see how it matches up to these goals.

Airwars welcomes the release of the US government's new civilian harm response action plan.

For years ourselves, @CIVIC and others, as well as @AzmatZahra's reporting, have documented the US policy flaws that led to devastating outcomes for civilians.

This week, Airwars joins our US partners in publishing recommendations to the US Department of Defense (DoD) - in anticipation of the forthcoming Civilian Harm Mitigation Response Action Plan (CHMRAP)

Read about them here: https://t.co/G9Ju7OOcwZ

[Airwars @airwars]

These should also be used as a reference for other states, including the UK @DefenceHQ, as continued lack of transparency around civilian protection policies remains a key obstacle to accountability for affected civilians.

[Airwars @airwars]

Our recommendations include ways for the US DoD to better listen to and engage with civil society and civilians affected by its operations, as well as practicable steps that could be taken to ensure civilian casualty recording becomes a top priority and meets quality standards

[Airwars @airwars]

While we have yet to see the outcome of the review - expected to be submitted this month - we join our partners in urging DoD to be transparent about its reform process, and address these and other recommendations we have repeatedly provided to support better civilian protection

🚨 NEW: CIVIC and civil society partners release detailed guidance for the forthcoming US Civilian Harm Mitigation & Response Action Plan.

To be successful, the plan must address the longstanding, systemic concerns raised by our groups over two decades. https://t.co/08q2aHFdJg

@marcgarlasco Very disturbing. This is why we need a presumption of civilian status!
