Joint Statement of NGOs on European assistance to the US lethal drone programme
Over the course of the past decade, NGOs, UN experts and the media have documented how potentially unlawful US drone strikes outside of armed conflict caused significant loss of life, in some cases violating the right to life and amounting to extrajudicial executions. US drone strikes have caused a significant number of civilian casualties, and in some instances appear to have violated international law, with some attacks amounting to possible war crimes.
