In a helicopter raid in Syria, the US military captured IS members.

According to a statement released by the US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM), three members of the Islamic State organization were apprehended by US forces during a helicopter and ground raid in eastern Syria, according to a statement released by the US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) on Sunday. The terrorists were apprehended a day earlier, according to CENTCOM, and were recognized as logisticians, facilitators, and “associates” of the jihadist organization.

According to a statement from CENTCOM, a civilian received “minimal injuries,” and was taken to a hospital.

IS is being fought in Syria by a global coalition with Washington as its leader.

Following a military operation backed by the alliance in March 2019, IS remnants in Syria largely withdrew into desert hideouts in the east after the jihadists lost their last pockets of territory.

Since then, they have carried out more attacks in Iraq while ambushing Syrian government troops and forces led by the Kurds in these covert locations.

A war monitor reported that groups with Iranian support carried out a drone strike on a US-led coalition base in southern Syria on Friday.
