US coalition air strikes against the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria have cost the lives of at least 1,114 civilians since they began their bombing campaign in 2014.
The coalition figures put it at odds with other numbers released by monitoring groups, who estimate the civilian death toll to be significantly higher.
"The coalition conducted a total of 30,008 strikes between August 2014 and end of August 2018," the coalition statement said.
"During this period, based on information available, CJTF-OIR assesses at least 1,114 civilians have been unintentionally killed by coalition strikes since the start of Operation Inherent Resolve."
Airwars, an independent monitoring group that assesses civilian deaths from coalition air strikes, estimates the civilian death toll be higher than 6,575.
The Syrian Observatory of Human RIghts says 3,379 civilians were killed by coalition strikes between September 2014 until 22 September 2018.
