Grandmother's 'Hellfire' death
recounted in Amnesty report

"Accustomed to seeing drones overhead, Mamana Bibi and her grandchildren continued their daily routine. 'The drone planes were flying over our village all day and night, flying in pairs sometimes three together. We had grown used to them flying over our village all the time,' Zubair Rehman continued. 'I was watering our animals and my brother was harvesting maize crop,' said Nabeela." -- excerpt from Amnesty International report.
