Damascus: US Central Command forces on Monday said it conducted a successful helicopter raid in eastern Syria on December 11 in which two ISIS terrorists were killed.
The deceased included Anas, an ISIS Syria Province Official, who was involved in the group’s deadly plotting and facilitation operations in eastern Syria.
"Extensive planning went into this unilateral operation to ensure its success. Initial assessments indicate no civilians were killed or injured," read a statement issued by the US Central Command.
The United States remains committed to countering the global threat from ISIS in partnership with local forces. ISIS continues to pursue an aggressive operational agenda, including external attacks that threaten US allies and partners in the region and beyond.
“ISIS continues to represent a threat to the security and stability of the region. This operation reaffirms CENTCOM’s steadfast commitment to ensuring the group’s enduring defeat,” said Joe Buccino, a CENTCOM spokesperson. “The death of these ISIS officials will disrupt the terrorist organization’s ability to further plot and carry out destabilizing attacks in the Middle East.”
