Overview
- CENTCOM announced on X that U.S. forces carried out coordinated attacks against multiple ISIS sites across Syria in response to a December 13 killing of two American service members and a translator near Palmyra.
- The operations were conducted with partner forces, and Jordan said it participated as part of the U.S.-led coalition.
- CENTCOM did not release casualty or battle-damage figures, saying assessments were still in progress.
- The latest action follows earlier raids announced in late December that targeted ISIS strongholds with Jordanian support.
- The campaign continues as the Pentagon’s previously announced plan to halve the U.S. troop presence in Syria leaves current personnel numbers undisclosed.
