Elite Psychopaths: Testimonies Expose Chilling Crimes by UK Special Forces in Iraq, Afghanistan
The latest reports emerge during an ongoing Independent Inquiry into Afghanistan, initiated in 2022, which aims to investigate allegations of war crimes by British Special Forces.
British elite regiments committed atrocities in Iraq and Afghanistan for over a decade, new eyewitness accounts cited by the BBC reveal.
Allegations implicate both the British Army’s
Special Air Service (SAS) and Royal Navy's elite Special Boat Service (SBS).
Cold-blooded executions of unarmed men, and even children, shot while handcuffed.
Killings during night raids, with civilians murdered in their sleep.
Cover-ups, with weapons planted on bodies, and the restraints removed to fake self-defense.
Execution of detainees as "standard operating procedure,” with junior soldiers ordered to kill by higher-ups.
Finishing off the wounded.
"They'd search someone, handcuff them, then shoot them," before cutting off the plastic handcuffs used to restrain people and "planting a pistol" by the body, one eyewitness said.
Then-Afghan President Hamid Karzai reportedly personally warned then-UK Prime Minister David Cameron about civilian killings carried out by British special forces.
