Daily Mail: Pentagon clears ITSELF over Syria war crimes: Review finds US troops did not deliberately kill 56 civilians including a woman and three children in airstrikes in 2019 and claims one child had taken up arms 

* Pentagon on Tuesday released findings from probe into 2019 strike on Baghuz 

* Four civilians were confirmed killed by US bombs as ISIS made its final stand 

* Now the Pentagon claims that the military did not violate the laws of war 

* Review acknowledges 'procedural mistakes' in the aftermath of the airstrikes 

* But no one, including the ground force commander, was disciplined 

A Pentagon investigation has determined that US troops did not commit war crimes or deliberately kill civilians in 2019 airstrikes in Syria that killed dozens of people, including women and children. 

The strikes on Baghuz, where desperate ISIS fighters were holed up and making their final stand, killed at least four civilians, but were kept secret for years until they came to light last fall.
