Military publishes film material from the Syria strike

The United States military killed a terrorist in Syria, and the footage is awesome.

President Donald Trump has made it clear he will strike the enemies of America no matter where they are.

He obliterated an ISIS leader with an overwhelming airstrike in Somalia, and our great military has now done it again.

Military releases video of strike on terrorist in Syria.

“On Feb. 23, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted a precision airstrike in Northwest Syria, targeting and killing Muhammed Yusuf Ziya Talay, the senior military leader of the terrorist organization Hurras al-Din (HaD), an Al-Qaeda affiliate. The airstrike is part of CENTCOM’s ongoing commitment, along with partners in the region, to disrupt and degrade efforts by terrorists to plan, organize, and conduct attacks against civilians and military personnel from the U.S., our allies, and our partners throughout the region and beyond,” U.S. Central Command tweeted Saturday morning announcing the strike.

The tweet also came with video of the terrorist leader being hit while in a vehicle. Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

“As we have said in the past, we will continue to relentlessly pursue these terrorists in order to defend our homeland, and U.S., allied, and partner personnel in the region,” U.S. Central Command commander Gen. Michael Erik Kurilla said following the strike.

While it’s a bit hard to tell for sure, the lack of a fireball likely means a Hellfire R9X missile was used. The R9X uses blades instead of explosives to kill the target.

It’s an incredible piece of military equipment. It also greatly minimizes the risks of civilian casualties due to the lack of an explosive charge.
