Dec. 19 (UPI) -- The U.S. military struck several ISIS-connected targets in Syria on Friday in retaliation for the shooting deaths of two U.S. soldiers and their interpreter last week.
The suspected Islamic State targets include weapons storage facilities and infrastructure, CNN, CBS News and The New York Times reported.
The military used artillery, attack helicopters and fighter jets to hit targets in central Syria during Operation Hawkeye, which is named after the two slain soldiers' home state of Iowa.
The strikes were expected to take place into early Saturday morning as part of a retaliation campaign against ISIS in Syria, The Times reported.
