U.S. and allied forces carried out large-scale strikes against Islamic State targets across Syria on Saturday, US Central Command said. The operation, conducted around 12:30 p.m. local time with partner nations, was launched in response to a deadly ISIS attack last month that killed three Americans.    The strikes were part of Operation Hawkeye Strike, ordered by Donald Trump after an ISIS ambush on December 13 in Palmyra. The attack marked the deadliest incident involving U.S. troops since the fall of Bashar al-Assad.    #USMilitary #ISIS #Syria #CENTCOM #Airstrikes #GlobalSecurity #CounterTerrorism #MiddleEast #USForces #AlliedForces #DefenseNews #MilitaryOperations #WarOnTerror #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #InternationalSecurity #Pentagon #USNews #Conflict #WorldNews

00:00The United States has unleashed a massive show of force in Syria,

00:26hammering ISIS targets with overwhelming firepower in a coordinated, multi-nation strike

00:32aimed at vengeance, deterrence, and total disruption.

00:36According to the Pentagon, the strikes were launched in direct response

00:40to the killing of two American soldiers and a civilian interpreter last month,

00:46an attack Washington says will not go unanswered.

00:49U.S. Central Command confirmed that more than 90 bombs were dropped

00:54on roughly three dozen ISIS-linked locations,

00:58spanning weapons depots, smuggling corridors, and operational hubs

01:02used to plan attacks against U.S. and Allied forces.

01:06The strikes involved a wide array of American airpower.

01:11Fighter jets, attack aircraft, gunships, and armed drones

01:14were all deployed in a synchronized assault designed to overwhelm ISIS defenses.

01:20U.S. officials said Jordanian forces also took part,

01:25underscoring the multinational nature of the operation.

01:28Targets were spread across ISIS-held and contested areas,

01:33with a focus on disrupting supply routes

01:35and eliminating weapons stockpiles used to sustain militant operations.

01:41Pentagon officials say the objective was clear,

01:44cripple ISIS's ability to regroup, move fighters, and carry out future attacks.

01:50U.S. Central Command described the strikes as part of an ongoing campaign

01:55to eradicate Islamic State networks operating in Syria.

01:59In a statement, CENTCOM said the mission was intended to protect American warfighters,

02:05prevent future attacks, and deny ISIS any operational breathing room.

02:10The strikes follow earlier operations in late December,

02:14when U.S. forces began a renewed offensive,

02:17after ISIS militants killed American citizens near Palmyra.

02:22Since then, nearly 25 ISIS members have been killed or captured

02:26in a series of raids and air operations,

02:29under what the military calls Operation Hawkeye Strike.

02:33Officials stressed that the strikes were limited in scope,

02:37but heavy in impact, a calculated show of force meant to remind ISIS

02:42that U.S. reach remains lethal and constant.

02:46While casualty figures have not been confirmed,

02:49military leaders say the operation significantly degraded ISIS capabilities across Syria.

02:55As the region remains volatile,

02:58U.S. commanders say operations against ISIS will continue

03:02wherever the group attempts to resurface.

03:05With air power, intelligence, and regional partnerships aligned,

03:09Washington is signaling that any attack on American forces

03:13will trigger swift and overwhelming retaliation.

03:17For ISIS, the message from the skies over Syria is unmistakable.

03:21There is no sanctuary and no escape.
