The defence department has confirmed Australian planes were involved in an air strike in Iraq which killed up to 18 civilians1. The ADF says two Super Hornets were involved in an airstrike in Mosul against Islamic State fighters, alongside other coalition2 aircraft. The incident occurred in June 2017, but the Australian defence force didn't find out about that until early 2018. It says it is not clear whether the civilians were killed as a result of the Australian fighter jets, other aircraft, or attacks on the ground by Islamic State forces.
