US fighter jets rain “hell on earth” against ISIS targets in Iraq! Hundreds reported killed or wounded!
On August 18, 2014 the Pentagon issued the following statement:
“Over the past 72 hours, at the request of the Iraqi government, the U.S. military used fighters, bombers, attack, and unmanned aircraft to conduct 35 strikes that eliminated ISIL positions in and around the Mosul Dam complex. In all, we destroyed over 90 targets including a range of vehicles, equipment, and fighting positions. Iraqi forces have cleared the
dam and are working to further expand their area of control.
Secretary Hagel remains extraordinarily proud of the men and women serving on land and sea who conducted these operations. He knows they stand ready to continue such missions as needed. Secretary Hagel also commends the way in which Iraqi forces worked together in this operation. It reflects the growing determination of Iraqis to fight back against ISIL.”

Note: Reports indicate that hundreds of ISIS fighters have been killed or wounded in the airstrikes. The Kurdish fighters have also reported finding ISIS fighters literally “melted” in vehicles hit by HE (High Explosive) rounds! Some still holding tight to the steering wheels of their vehicles in death grips and bodies burned so badly as to be unrecognizable!
