A BRITISH air strike killed two terrorists in Iraq last month, the Ministry of Defence announced yesterday.

The Royal Air Force (RAF) used a Reaper drone to fire a Hellfire missile at two Isis militants at a suspected weapons cache in Iraq’s Anbar province on August 23.

Hellfire missiles are made by US arms companies and cost the RAF around £94,000 each.

The Anbar air strike was followed by another attack on September 2 in northern Iraq, 25 miles south-west of Ash Sharqat.

Two British Typhoons flying from Cyprus used Paveway IV guided bombs to destroy six “targets” at suspected Isis training camps.

The RAF said “there was no sign of any civilians being present.”

Each Paveway bomb costs £70,000.

In March the MoD claimed that it had killed 4,315 enemy combatants and only one civilian in its air strikes against the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Amnesty said such a low civilian death toll “beggars belief.”
