Published 1 years ago
Footage released by the SDF Press Office in Syria shows drone and ground footage from Operation Retaliation in which a strike force of SDF operatives moved to capture or kill several Islamic State high-value targets.
According to the SDF, this operation was conducted specifically to further degrade the Islamic State in the region. In the original release, the press office stated that they were "targeting terrorist cells and their dangerous operatives, destroying channels of communication between them, uprooting their potential hideouts and drying up the enabling environment, primarily the facilitators and recruitment networks"
This footage is just a small piece of the larger operation that was carried out after a series of Islamic State attacks killed six SDF fighters near Raqqa, Syria.
