Upon occasions we get questions from bloggers on this forum about our actions, military actions, against ISIL. The issue of ISIL is a multi-tiered one, in addition to working with our coalition partners, and aiming for a collective action against ISIL, we are also conducting air strikes which are targeting members of ISIL or their assets. This enables our coalition partners, the Iraqi forces to conduct better ground operations. Having said that highlighted below are the most recent updates on our military operations against ISIL, Operation Inherent Resolve, as deliberated by Spokesperson Col. Steve Warren:

“As of 12 o'clock today, the U.S.-led coalition has conducted a total of 7,440 airstrikes, with 4,798 in Iraq, 2,642 in Syria. In Ramadi, the ISF continues to move to isolate enemy forces who are occupying the capital of Anbar province. We've conducted 292 strikes against ISIL in and around that city since operations there began. We've conducted 52 strikes just in the last 10 days. These strikes have killed hundreds of fighters, destroyed mortar positions, vehicle-borne IEDs, explosive facilities, heavy machine guns, and even sniper positions.

Aided by our strikes, Iraqi ground forces have advanced 15 kilometers over the last seven days and we've seen some encouraging developments. Last week for the first time, Iraqi F-16s provided direct support to maneuvering Iraqi ground forces. Over the past week, the CTS, the counterterrorist service, in particular has stood out in very tough fighting along the western approaches to Ramadi.”

4798 sorty in Iraqwithin a year that's not little if every sorty killed one isis that would lead to the vanish of isis as the media keep repeating that isis all in all 2000 fihgter!?.

We are not sure from what source you have gathered that there are only 2000 ISIL fighters We haven’t released anything on that but posted below are a couple of media reports that will give you an estimate, mind you even these reports are not fully confirmed, but they will give you a general idea.

However, to win the fight against DAESH, it is important that understand that this isn’t a numbers game. If we are to defeat DAESH, we have to all come together and expose the reality of this group, so that people would not voluntarily join them. We have to expose the brutality of this ideology they are preaching in order to defeat it. To many of us, it is quite inconceivable that anyone would want to join this violent and brutal group, however, the reality is that there are people joining DAESH - mostly those who are being deluded by empty promises. There are many people who have come back to tell the story of how life under DAESH really is and we help them tell their story to the world.

ISIS and other terrorist ORG are not local IRaqis and Syrians mostly are foreign fighter
7000 Russia and former soviet countrie alone
 
Putin this Putin that. lots of cocksuckerfanboys These days.
i tell you what, Saudis should in fact lower the oil production and double oil Price. Why is Saudi Arabia helping US Warmongerers against Russia? USA is not helping Saudis. Why does Saudi Arabia not cut the oil production so Russia can arm themselfs to grow to a real threat to Europe and USA kuffars?
Let them kuffars kill each other in World War Three with massive Military build up. Saudis can easily use the oil Money to make peace with Asad, Iran and other Muslims. Saudi Money should be invested in Syria.
I trust in Saudis. They will overcome this ugly fake world and find to the routes of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)

Iraq shows off airstrike by new Chinese-made combat drone (VIDEO)

The Iraqi military has released a video displaying the combat deployment of a CH-4B drone which the country recently bought from China. Baghdad has been diversifying its arms supply to decrease its reliance on American producers.
The Caihong (Rainbow) 4B drone flew from the al-Kut Air Base southeast of Baghdad and shot an AR-1 laser-guided anti-tank missile at an Islamic State target, according to the Iraqi Defense Ministry. The first-ever Iraqi combat drone mission was supervised by Defense Minister Khaled-al-Obeidi.

Iraq purchased a number of Chinese combat drones in early 2015, with photos of the robotic aircraft already in Iraq surfacing since at least March. The CH-4B is a dual reconnaissance/combat UAV with a range of 5,000 km, according to producer, China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC).

The drone is similar to the US-made MQ-9 Reaper can carry a payload of up to 350kg carried on six pads. Its designated weapons include Lan Jian 7 (Blue Arrow 7) laser-guided air-to-surface missiles, TG100 bombs and the AR-1 missiles, the latter being an equivalent of American-made Hellfire missiles.

China is already world's largest producer of UAVs and is working on taking on a greater share in the military drone segment of the global market, competing against traditional leaders like the US and Israel. In September it revealed its heaviest combat drone to date, the Caihong 5.

Earlier this year Nigeria received a number of armed Caihong-3 drones from Beijing, which it appears to have been using in its campaign against Boko Haram militants. China may also have shared drone technology with Pakistan, as its Burraq drone unveiled in November 2013 bears a strong resemblance to the same Chinese model, according to defense experts.

Iraq, which for years had the US as its primary arms supplier, is currently broadening its defense contracts geographically. In addition to China it signed big arms deals with Russia and Iran.
