Coalition airstrikes hammer ISIS in Iraq and Syria
2015-06-10
[Rudaw] United States Central Command has announced that 21 Arclight airstrikes were carried out in the last 24 hours in Iraq and Syria by the international coalition to fight the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
, or ISIS.

According to a US statement, the Arclight airstrikes hit 14 different areas in Iraq, including the destruction of a massive bomb and a bomb-making factory in the town of Hit, some 30km west of Ramadi in Anbar province.

Hit town is a strategic site that ISIS has used as a base in order to attack other areas of Iraq.

Coalition Arclight airstrikes also hit seven areas in Syria's ethnically Kurdish northeastern region around the liberated city of Kobane.
