The Role of U.S. Drones in the Roboski Massacre

On December 28, 2011, an American Predator drone flying over the mountains along the Iraq–Turkey border detected a surge in wireless communication. U.S. officials alerted Turkish military officials about the crossing of a suspected group of Kurdish armed militants belonging to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) into Turkish territory. Within a matter of hours, Turkish jets and artillery responded by bombing the group. The bombardment lasted 45 minutes, between 9:39 p.m. and 10:24 p.m. The suspected militants were actually civilian smugglers—38 adult males and children, along with 50 mules—undertaking their regular weekly round trip over the mountains to sell contraband cigarettes and gasoline in the nearby black market. Only four people survived. Nineteen of the massacred were children. The following morning the members of the local Human Rights Association gathered the bodily remains of the victims, along with the shrapnel pieces as legal evidence, before the security officials swept the area to cover up what had occurred.
