Earlier this year, an investigation by Chris Woods from the UK-based Bureau of Investigative Journalism revealed that U.S. drones targeted rescue workers and other civilians in Pakistan. His work has spawned a U.N. investigation into possible war crimes. Last month, Woods returned to Pakistan, where he met with villagers who witnessed drone attacks, as well as one of the girls who was shot along with Malala Yousafzai in the Swat Valley. He’ll share details of his trip and discuss the impact of U.S. drone policy on the ground in Pakistan.
