CAFE Insider

Office Hours is a series of conversations with experts that explore undercovered issues of law and policy. 

In this edition, we explore the rules, laws, and policies that underpin lethal drone strikes in the Middle East and the latest revelations by the New York Times that the military significantly undercounts civilian casualties.  

CAFE Executive Producer Tamara Sepper is joined by Priyanka Motaparthy, Director of Project on Counterterrorism, Armed Conflict and Human Rights at Columbia University’s Human Rights Institute.
