Joint U.S.-Iraqi Operation Kills Multiple ISIS Terrorists In New Strike

A joint U.S.-Iraqi military operation killed multiple ISIS terrorists in a newly revealed strike on the Islamic terrorist group late last week.

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement that the operation was led by Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) but enabled by U.S. forces.

The strike was carried out “in the vicinity [of] Kirkuk, Iraq, killing five ISIS operatives,” CENTCOM said.

“An initial post-strike clearance found multiple explosive suicide belts and other materials,” the statement said. “The ISF-led operation is part of the ongoing Defeat-ISIS campaign to disrupt and degrade ISIS’ capabilities, dismantle their attack networks, and ensure the enduring defeat of ISIS. Coalition Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve (CTF-OIR) enabled ISF during the operation by providing technical support and intelligence.”
