A Daesh official was captured in a helicopter raid in northern Syria by the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), an announcement stated Monday.
“Abu Halil al-Fad’ani, an ISIS Syria Operational and Facilitation official, was captured during the raid. Al-Fad’ani was assessed to have relationships throughout the ISIS network in the region,” the U.S. Central Command stated in an announcement.
The official was captured on Saturday, the assertion stated.
The seize of Daesh officers like al-Fad’ani will increase the U.S.’s means to search out and take away terrorists from the battlefield, stated Lt. Col. Troy Garlock, CENTCOM spokesperson.
“USCENTCOM remains committed to the enduring defeat of ISIS,” he added.
No civilians have been killed or wounded through the operation, the assertion stated.
