Ex-UK Special Forces Allege War Crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan

News summary

Former UK Special Forces veterans have publicly revealed disturbing allegations of war crimes committed during operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, detailing a culture of unlawful killings within elite units such as the SAS and SBS. Eyewitness accounts describe routine executions of detainees, including children, with victims often killed in their sleep and weapons planted to fabricate justification. These testimonies suggest the killings were widespread over more than a decade, exceeding the timeframe of the current UK public inquiry. Veterans reported a ‘mob mentality’ among some troops, with even the quietest members displaying psychopathic behavior and a sense of being untouchable. The allegations also point to higher command structures being aware of and potentially covering up these crimes through falsified reports and suppression of evidence. The UK Ministry of Defence has expressed full commitment to supporting the ongoing inquiry and urged veterans with information to come forward.
