U.S. Central Command announced Sunday that American military forces conducted dozens of airstrikes on ISIS camps in Syria as the notorious regime of dictator Bashar Assad falls. The United States is concerned that bad actors—terrorists—will try to take advantage of the power vacuum as Assad has reportedly fled to Russia.
After Assad’s family ruled over Syria for more than 50 years, Assad was forced to flee Syria to Russia, where he was granted asylum, when a coalition of largely radical Islamist groups led a sweeping offensive across Syria and captured the country’s capital city.
CENTCOM announced on Sunday that it has conducted strikes against ISIS leaders, operatives and camps as part of an ongoing mission to “disrupt, degrade and defeat ISIS.”
