Early on Monday [February 2nd], Tornado GR4s provided close air support to Iraqi army operations approximately 70 kilometres north west of Baghdad, and dropped 2 Paveway IVs on ISIL positions engaged in a firefight with the Iraqi troops.

On Jan. 31, U.S. and Coalition military forces continued to attack ISIL terrorists in Syria, using attack, fighter, and remotely piloted aircraft to conduct eight airstrikes. Separately, U.S. and Coalition military forces conducted 26 airstrikes in Iraq, using bomber, fighter, and remotely piloted aircraft against ISIL terrorists. All strikes took place between 8 a.m., Jan. 31, and 8 a.m., Feb. 1, local time. The following is a summary of the strikes conducted since the last press release:

Syria

* Near Kobani, seven airstrikes struck an ISIL staging area and four ISIL tactical units and destroyed five ISIL fighting positions.

* Near Ar Raqqah, an airstrike struck an ISIL tactical unit.

Iraq

* Near Al Asad, an airstrike struck an ISIL tactical unit.

* Near Al Qaim, an airstrike destroyed an ISIL staging area.

* Near Hit, an airstrike struck an ISIL tactical unit.

* Near Kirkuk, 19 airstrikes struck four large ISIL units and 11 ISIL tactical units and destroyed eight ISIL fighting positions, an ISIL staging position, eight ISIL vehicles, two ISIL armored vehicles, an ISIL building, and an ISIL tank.

Later [January 31st], a Reaper was again on patrol in western Iraq, and used Hellfires to engage an ISIL truck and a group of terrorists.

On Jan. 30, Kurdish Security Forces (KSF) counterattacked ISIL on eight bridges they had captured during their initial assault on Kirkuk. By the end of the day, the KSF had successfully recaptured five of the bridges. On Jan. 31, the KSF continued to advance and eventually recaptured the remaining three bridges. Afterwards, the KSF improved and reinforced the former ISIL positions in preparation for a counterattack which took place on Feb. 1. ISIL attempted to regain all the crossing points with a synchronized, multipronged attack, and was defeated by the KSF.

From Saturday through Monday, coalition forces conducted 32 airstrikes in support of the KSF in Kirkuk, neutralizing or destroying ISIL armored tactical and armored vehicles, numerous ISIL formations and fighting positions, buildings and other equipment.

CENTCOM currently assesses that while ISIL still has the ability to conduct small-scale operations, their capacity to do so is degraded and their momentum is stalling. The increasing tenacity of anti-ISIL forces along with coalition airstrikes has degraded ISIL’s ability to command and control forces; recruit, train and retain fighters, produce revenue from oil sales, and maintain morale.

On 30 January 2015, while taking part in coalition missions in support of Iraqi security forces ground operations conducted northwest of Baghdad, CF-188 Hornets successfully struck an ISIL mortar using precision guided munitions.

Le même jour et dans la même zone, les aéronefs ont également neutralisé une position de tir qui faisait feu sur des forces irakiennes.

January 30th: An RAF Reaper operating in support of Iraqi ground forces conducted 4 strikes with Hellfire missiles on terrorists in the west of the country.

27-01-2015 – kl. 16:50– Missionerne, som de danske fly har deltaget i, har været offensive, og de danske fly har i den forløbne periode deltaget i missioner i områderne omkring Mosul, Bayji, den nordvestlige del af Ninawa provinsen og i den vestlige del af Al Anbar provinsen. Målene for bomberne har været fjendtlige styrker og bygninger.

De danske fly har fløjet Close Air Support-missioner (CAS), hvor flyene er indsat direkte som luftstøtte til styrker på landjorden. Her vil flyene patruljere over et bestemt område, hvorefter de vil kunne blive indsat af koalitionen, når der er behov for støtte. Luftstøtten vil variere afhængig af, hvad der er behov for. Det kan både dreje sig om overvågningsopgaver og bombninger af mål. På nogle af disse missioner har de danske fly kastet bomber mod fjendtlige styrker/ bygninger/køretøjer i forbindelse med kamphandlinger på jorden.

De danske fly har også gennemført Air Interdiction-missioner.

Her planlægges et specifikt angreb mod et på forhånd defineret mål udførligt og detaljeret hjemmefra, og flyene flyver direkte frem til målet, kaster bomber og flyver retur. Ved disse missioner har målene for bomberne været fjendtlige bygninger.

På de missioner, hvor de danske F-16 ikke har anvendt våben, har de bidraget med overvågning og indhentning af efterretninger. På sådanne overvågningsmissioner er flyene dog altid klar til at anvende våben, hvis der er behov for det.

Siden første mission den 16. oktober 2014, har det danske bidrag i alt fløjet 163 missioner og anvendt 105 bomber. Alle de danske bomber er præcisionsstyrede, hvilket vil sige, at de styres mod deres mål ved hjælp af enten laser eller GPS.

Mise à jour : 27/01/2015 11:24

Cette semaine, la force Chammal a réalisé 22 missions aériennes au-dessus du sol irakien.

Dans la nuit du 21 au 22 janvier, les avions français ont contribué à un raid de la coalition dans le nord du pays, dans la région de Sinjar.

En fin de soirée, une patrouille a décollé pour un raid aérien planifié visant à détruire des positions de combat de Daech. Une dizaine d’objectifs a été détruit par les chasseurs français au moyen de bombes AASM1.

Cette opération aérienne combinée (COMAO) a été précédée, le 20 janvier, d’une mission d’Intelligence, surveillance et reconnaissance (ISR) effectuée par un Atlantique 2de la Marine nationale. Cette mission « pré-strike », qui a mobilisé l’Atlantique 2durant plus de sept heures sur zone, a permis de rafraichir et confirmer les objectifs quelques heures avant leur neutralisation.

Hormis ce raid, les Rafale et Mirage2000D de l’armée de l’Air ont conduit quotidiennement des vols de reconnaissance armée, contribuant de façon complémentaire au recueil du renseignement sur le groupe terroriste Daech, en étroite coordination avec nos alliés présents dans la région.

Sur le volet maritime, la frégate anti-aérienne Jean Bart poursuit sa mission d’escorte du porte-avions USS Carl Vinson et de contrôle de l’espace aérien irakien au sein de la Task Force 50.

Lancée le 19 septembre 2014, l’opération Chammal vise, à la demande du gouvernement irakien et en coordination avec les alliés de la France présents dans la région, à assurer un soutien aérien aux forces armées irakiennes dans leur lutte contre le groupe terroriste autoproclamé Daech. Le dispositif est structuré autour de neuf avions Rafale, six avions Mirage 2000D, un ravitailleur C-135 FR, un avion de patrouille maritime Atlantique 2 et la frégate anti-aérienne Jean Bart, intégrée dans le groupe aéronaval américain constitué autour du porte-avions USS Carl Vinson.

(1)L’AASM (Armement Air-Sol Modulaire) est une famille d’armements guidés air-sol intelligents de nouvelle génération. Tiré à distance de sécurité et autonome, l’AASM atteint une cible fixe ou mobile avec une très haute précision, de jour comme de nuit et par tous les temps.

Een overzicht van Defensie-operaties in de week van 19 tot en met 25 januari.

De Nederlandse F-16’s, actief in de strijd tegen ISIS, kwamen 14 keer in actie boven verschillende provincies van Irak. Ze zetten 13 keer wapens in. Sinds de start van de missie werd al meer dan 2000 uur gevlogen, verdeeld over meer dan 400 missies. Meer dan 250 keer werden wapens ingezet.

ISIL terrorist Abu Malik was killed Jan. 24 in a coalition airstrike in the vicinity of Mosul, Iraq. Malik was an ISIL chemical weapons engineer who worked at Saddam Hussein’s Muthana chemical weapon production facility before affiliating with al Qaeda Iraq in 2005.

His death is expected to temporarily degrade and disrupt the terrorist network and diminish ISIL’s ability to potentially produce and use chemical weapons against innocent people.
