Une mission de soutien aérien a de nouveau été effectuée aujourd’hui, vendredi 26 septembre, au-dessus de l’Irak.

Opération Chammal : poursuite des missions aériennes

Deux Rafale ont effectué une mission de reconnaissance armée dans le nord-ouest de l’Irak, au cours d’un vol de plus de sept heures qui a nécessité plusieurs ravitaillements par C135-FR.

Un Atlantique 2 a quant à lui effectué un vol de onze heures dans la région de Mossoul pour une mission ISR (Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance).

Ces vols visent à acquérir du renseignement sur les positions les mouvements et les vulnérabilités du groupe terroriste Daech. Les informations recueillies sont ensuite partagées avec nos alliés présents dans la région.

Opération Chammal : poursuite des missions aériennes

Ces missions de soutien aérien vont se poursuivre dans les prochains jours. Elles sont effectuées sous le contrôle opérationnel de l’amiral commandant la zone océan Indien (ALINDIEN) en coordination avec le CAOC américain (coordination air operation center) situé à Al Udeid, au Qatar.

Sept. 24th – U.S. military forces and partner nations, including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, attacked ISIL terrorists in Syria today, using a mix of fighter and remotely piloted aircraft to conduct 13 airstrikes against 12 ISIL-controlled modular oil refineries located in remote areas of eastern Syria in the vicinity of Al Mayadin, Al Hasakah, and Abu Kamal and one ISIL vehicle near Dayr az Zawr, also in eastern Syria.

We are still assessing the outcome of the attack on the refineries, but have initial indications that the strikes were successful. The ISIL vehicle was destroyed. These small-scale refineries provided fuel to run ISIL operations, money to finance their continued attacks throughout Iraq and Syria, and an economic asset to support their future operations. Producing between 300-500 barrels of refined petroleum per day, ISIL is estimated to generate as much as $2 million per day from these refineries. The destruction and degradation of these targets further limits ISIL’s ability to lead, control, project power and conduct operations.

To conduct these strikes, the U.S. employed U.S. Air Force fighter aircraft deployed to the U.S. Central Command area of operations. In addition, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates also participated in these airstrikes.

September 24th – U.S. military forces continued to attack ISIL terrorists in Iraq and Syria, using a mix of attack, bomber and fighter aircraft to conduct five airstrikes Tuesday and today.

Two airstrikes west of Baghdad destroyed two ISIL armed vehicles and a weapons cache.

Two airstrikes southeast of Irbil destroyed ISIL fighting positions.

A fifth airstrike damaged eight ISIL vehicles in Syria northwest of Al Qa’im. All aircraft exited the strike areas safely.

The strikes were conducted as part of the President’s comprehensive strategy to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL.

To date, U.S. Central Command has conducted 198 airstrikes across Iraq against ISIL. Along with partner nations, U.S. Central Command has also conducted 20 airstrikes across Syria against ISIL
