President Joe Biden
MORE than 100 international human rights organisations have called on US President Joe Biden to stop using drone attacks and air strikes outside of recognised battlefields.
They made the call in a letter penned on Thursday in response to recent missile strikes on targets in Syria and Iraq, in which a child was killed along with four anti-Isis fighters.
The 113 global rights groups labelled the attacks “unlawful” and said that it was time to “chart a new path forward that promotes and respects our collective human security."
