US military says it carried out strikes across Syria targeting Islamic State

The U.S. military said on Saturday it carried out multiple strikes in Syria targeting the Islamic State militant group as part ⁠of an operation that Washington launched in December after an attack ‌on American personnel.
A U.S.-led coalition has been carrying out airstrikes and ground operations in Syria targeting Islamic State suspects in recent months, often with the involvement of Syria’s security forces.
“The strikes today targeted ISIS throughout Syria,” the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement, adding the strikes were carried out early afternoon U.S. Eastern Time.
