Joe Biden-led government launched ‘dozens of precision airstrikes’ in Syria on Sunday after rebels ousted longtime despotic leader Bashar al-Assad.
The strikes were carried out against known ISIS camps and operatives based in Central Syria, according to US Central Command.
This ongoing operation’s objective was to prevent ISIS from taking advantage of the chaos and reorganizing after their attempt at a state collapsed in 2019, per the Pentagon.
The US military struck 75 targets using war planes, including B-52s, F-15s, and A-10s. So far, there are no indications of civilian life lost.
‘There should be no doubt – we will not allow ISIS to reconstitute and take advantage of the current situation in Syria,’Â said General Michael Erik Kurilla.
‘All organizations in Syria should know that we will hold them accountable if they partner with or support ISIS in any way.’
