In recent military operations in Syria, the United States military has reported the successful elimination of 37 militants associated with the extremist Islamic State group and an al-Qaeda-linked group. According to U.S. Central Command, two of the militants killed were identified as senior members of these groups.
The first strike, which took place in northwestern Syria on Tuesday, targeted a senior militant from the al-Qaeda-linked Hurras al-Deen group along with eight others. The senior militant was reportedly responsible for overseeing military operations within the group.
