September 20th [archived] – U.S. military forces continued to attack ISIL terrorists in Iraq, using attack and fighter aircraft to conduct five airstrikes Friday and Saturday. One airstrike southwest of Baghdad destroyed an ISIL boat ferrying supplies across the Euphrates River. The other four airstrikes occurred northwest of Haditha, destroying two ISIL armed vehicles, three ISIL checkpoints, and two ISIL guard outposts. 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.
