US Military Conducts Week-Long Air Campaign Against Daesh Targets in Syria

Airstrikes targeted weapons storage facilities with precision munitions, Central Command confirms.

WASHINGTON, February 3 — The United States military executed a series of five airstrikes against Daesh (ISIS) targets in Syria over the past week, US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced on Wednesday. The operations, conducted between January 27 and February 2, reportedly focused on multiple weapons storage facilities.

In a statement, CENTCOM specified that the strikes employed approximately 50 precision-guided munitions. The campaign represents a continued effort to degrade the militant group’s infrastructure and operational capabilities within the region.

No further details regarding specific locations or assessments of casualties were immediately provided by military officials. The strikes underscore the ongoing, albeit lower-profile, US military engagement against Daesh remnants in Syria, following the territorial defeat of the group’s so-called caliphate.
