YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPresident Trump congratulated US Central Command forces Monday for conducting a successful weekend airstrike in Syria targeting a senior “terrorist leader.” NY Post video writer Brian Faas shares this story.
“US forces conducted a precision airstrike against a member of al-Qaeda in Syria this weekend,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The terrorist leader was working with al-Qaeda across the region.”
“Congratulations to CENTCOM Commander Gen. Michael Kurilla, and the US warfighters who dealt Justice to another Jihadi threatening America and our allies and partners,” the president added.
The airstrike took place on Saturday and resulted in the death of a “senior finance and logistics official in the terrorist organization Hurras al-Din (HaD), an Al-Qaeda affiliate,” according to CENTCOM.
“The airstrike is part of CENTCOM’s ongoing commitment, along with partners in the region, to disrupt and degrade efforts by terrorists to plan, organize, and conduct attacks against civilians and military personnel from the U.S., our allies, and our partners throughout the region and beyond,” the combatant command force said in a statement.
