US forces unleashed a wave of airstrikes against ISIS in Syria on Friday, the White House confirms.
The move delivers on President Trump’s promise to retaliate for the killing of two US Army soldiers and an interpreter during a terrorist ambush in the country’s central region last weekend.
American forces struck over 70 targets in the country linked to ISIS, a US official told Fox News.
'Because of ISIS’s vicious killing of brave American Patriots in Syria, whose beautiful souls I welcomed home to American soil earlier this week in a very dignified ceremony, I am hereby announcing that the United States is inflicting very serious retaliation,' Trump said in a post on Truth Social Friday evening.
The bombardment is reportedly being carried out by US Airforce F-15E Strike Eagles and A-10C Thunderbolts alongside Army helicopters and artillery rocket systems.
