US asks for more information after incident in Syrian village during push to retake IS 'capital'
US-backed forces pressed offensives on the Islamic State group's strongholds in Syria and Iraq, as an airstrike by the US-led coalition reportedly killed 20 civilians near the Syrian city of Raqa.
Supported by coalition air raids, Iraqi forces have pushed into IS's Mosul stronghold and a Kurdish-Arab militia alliance has been advancing on the jihadists' de facto Syrian capital Raqa.
