The strike targeted a truck transporting weapons in Dayr az Zawr Province, an area once under the control of the Syrian government and Russian forces. US Central Command confirmed the operation via a statement on the social media platform X, reiterating the effort to disrupt ISIS activities in the region.
Dayr az Zawr has been a hotspot for the ongoing conflict, with the region historically serving as a stronghold for various groups, including ISIS. The province remains a critical battleground in the fight to prevent the resurgence of the Islamic State, which has been significantly weakened but continues to pose threats through isolated cells.
