US forces hit ISIS targets in Syria with mobile rocket system
US forces hit Islamic State targets overnight near Turkey’s border with Syria using a newly deployed mobile rocket system, a senior diplomat said on Saturday.“US forces struck [Isis] targets near Turkey’s border in Syria last night via newly deployed Himars system,” Brett McGurk, the special presidential envoy for the coalition to counter Islamic State, said on his official Twitter account. Himars is an acronym for “High Mobility Artillery Rocket System”. It was not immediately clear when the system was deployed at Turkey’s border. Posted by: Steve White 2016-09-04 |
