NBC News reported that a "good number" of unmanned US military and intelligence drones are operating in the skies over Syria, monitoring what the TV network referred to as “the Syrian military's attacks against opposition forces and civilians”.
Citing unnamed US defense officials, NBC News claimed “this surveillance was not in preparation for US military intervention.”
“However, the administration President Barack Obama hopes to use the overhead visual evidence and intercepts of Syrian government and military communications in an effort to make the case for a widespread international response,” it added.
The TV network further pointed out that “there has been some discussion among White House, State Department and Pentagon officials about possible humanitarian missions in Syria.”
