US fighter jets carried out on Saturday an airstrike against ISIS terrorist locations in Libya for the first time since September.According to a US Department of Defense source, a number of terrorists were killed in the strike, reported Fox News.
The development has raised questions on the extent of cooperation or lack of it between the US and Libyan authorities before the strike was launched.
The source added that the strike was carried out in the desert in central Libya, while American circles predicted that more strikes will be staged in the future.
In 2016, the US carried out over 500 airstrikes against ISIS in the Libya city of Sirte. A strike in September of this year left 17 ISIS members dead.
