US carries out 'massive' strike against IS in Syria

The US military has carried out a "massive" strike against the Islamic State (IS) group in Syria. The strike was a response to the deadly attack last week that killed four US troops and a contractor in northern Syria. According to the US Central Command, the strike targeted "dozens of IS barracks, headquarters, ammunition storage facilities, and resource generation sites" across Syria. The operation was aimed at disrupting the group's ability to plan and execute further attacks. The strike demonstrates the US's commitment to maintaining pressure on IS and protecting its forces in the region. While the details of the operation and its impact on IS are still emerging, the US action underscores the ongoing threat posed by the terrorist group and the continued efforts to combat its presence in Syria.
