I wasn't there, but I do have intimate knowledge of the way the RAF apply RoE in Afghanistan and I hope you can believe me; if they were attacked by RAF ac, the cockpit recording will have been pored over ad infinitum at multiple levels to double & triple-check that the RoE were adhered to.
Just because we, here, cannot see why, doesn't mean there wasn't good and just reason.
