According to Amnesty International: "The strikes that Amnesty International has researched were unlawful – in that they deliberately targeted civilian objects or disproportionately harmed civilians and civilian objects in relation to the concrete and direct military advantage anticipated from the attack, or failed to distinguish between civilian objects and military objectives.
