The March 2018 deaths of US Army Sgt. Jonathan Dunbar and British Sgt.
Matt Tonroe in Syria were initially reported by US officials as a
roadside bombing. Officials are now revising the story, confirming both
were killed in a friendly fire incident.
It turns out that the two soldiers were killed in an “accidental detonation” when a bunch of explosives being carried around by another American soldiers blew up.
Exactly how that happened isn’t entirely clear, but the troops were
operating near Manbij, in what was previously called a “capture or kill”
mission, and the joint operation ended with a big explosion.
Britain’s Sgt. Tonroe was the only British soldier killed in active duty
operations against ISIS. He was injured in the accidental explosion,
and died later of his wounds, according to officials.
It’s long time ALL US troops were withdrawn from Syria AND Afghanistan. We don’t belong in the Middle East and Central Asia .. In fact, we don’t belong anywhere overseas. Period.
Right now, these troops belong at our southern border with Mexico to prevent caravans of invaders into our country. They don’t belong here; they belong in their own countries in Central America.
