JUST IN: The U.S. and partner forces struck ISIS targets in Syria on Saturday, a month after the deadly attack on American soldiers.
U.S. military forces, working alongside partner nations, carried out targeted strikes against ISIS positions in Syria on Saturday, signaling a forceful response to the terror group following last month’s deadly attack on American service members.
The operation comes roughly one month after ISIS militants killed U.S. soldiers in the region, an attack that prompted renewed scrutiny of extremist activity and threats to American forces stationed overseas.
U.S. Central Command confirmed the strikes in a public statement, emphasizing that the mission was aimed squarely at degrading ISIS’ ability to plan and carry out further attacks. Officials said the targets were carefully selected to minimize risk to civilians while delivering a decisive blow to the terror network.
In a blunt warning posted on X, Central Command made clear that those who target American troops will face consequences. “If you harm our warfighters, we will find you and kill you anywhere in the world, no matter how hard you try to evade justice,” the statement read.
The strikes underscore Washington’s message that ISIS remains a priority threat and that attacks on U.S. personnel will be met with swift and overwhelming force, regardless of where militants attempt to hide.
