HR 6517 United States House · 118th Congress

Civilian Harm Transparency in Partnerships Act of 2023

This bill requires the Director of National Intelligence to submit annual reports to congressional intelligence committees detailing confirmed civilian casualties from specific foreign military operations. Each report must list covered operations (those involving foreign governments using force where U.S. intelligence played a significant role), include total casualty numbers, and provide details like dates, locations, the conducting foreign government unit, and target information. The reports must be submitted annually for two years after enactment, with classified versions allowed if needed, but must include an unclassified summary. This transparency measure directly affects U.S. oversight of foreign military partnerships where U.S. intelligence supports operations, enabling Congress to monitor civilian harm outcomes.
