he Netherlands is probing two
incidents in which civilians may have been killed or injured in air strikes against the Islamic State group in Iraq, the government has said.
Citing "operational reasons", the Defence Ministry said neither details of the incidents nor the probe are being made public.
The probe was prompted by a raft of questions raised by lawmakers in parliament on the Netherlands' role in the fight against IS after The Hague announced last month it would expand air operations into Syria.
