This includes at least 2 targeted air strikes in Syria designed to degrade ISIL capabilities to wage war.
Separately, officials added, U.S. military forces working in coordination with Iraqi ground forces conducted six airstrikes against #ISIL targets in #Iraq. In Iraq two airstrikes southeast of Fallujah struck a large ISIL unit and destroyed three ISIL vehicles.
Three airstrikes south of the Bayji oil refinery struck a small ISIL unit, destroyed an ISIL building and three ISIL vehicles, and damaged another ISIL building. Another airstrike south of Bayji destroyed four ISIL boats and damaged at least four more.
To conduct these airstrikes, U.S. forces used bomber, fighter and remotely piloted aircraft deployed to the Centcom area of operations.
