In a significant military action, the US forces executed airstrikes against Islamic State group camps in Syria, as reported by the US Central Command. The strikes, which took place in the desert region of central Syria, resulted in the deaths of up to 35 militants.

Conducted on Monday evening, the airstrikes targeted various strategic locations and senior leaders within the Islamic State group. This operation follows a series of joint missions with Iraqi forces targeting IS militants in neighboring Iraq.

Pentagon officials have emphasized that while the Islamic State group continues to pose a threat in the region, its influence has markedly diminished compared to its peak a decade ago. US Central Command highlighted that the recent strikes aim to hinder the group's capacity to orchestrate attacks against civilians and coalition forces.
