[Ynet] The US military says it launched five more Arclight airstrikes in support of Iraqi government troops and Sunni rustics protecting the Haditha Dam against fighters of the Islamic State group that controls parts of northern and western Iraq.
Central Command says that a combination of US attack, fighter and drone aircraft destroyed or damaged eight armed vehicles, two of which were transporting anti-aircraft artillery near the dam. It says six other vehicles also were struck.
The attacks were carried out overnight Monday into Tuesday morning. |
