“We Will Find You” – U.S. Strike Eliminates ISIS-Linked Terrorist Who Killed 3 Americans in Syria

Yerushalayim — U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced it eliminated Bilal Hasan al-Jasim, a terror leader affiliated with the terror organization, Al-Qaeda, who had direct ties to an ISIS terrorist responsible for an ambush, which killed two U.S. service members and an American interpreter in December.

According to Central Command, Al-Jasim was an experienced terrorist leader who plotted attacks and was directly connected with the ISIS gunman, who killed and injured American and Syrian personnel last month in Palmyra, Syria.

“The death of a terrorist operative linked the death of three Americans demonstrates our resolve in pursuing terrorists who attack our forces,” said Adm. Brad Cooper, CENTCOM commander. “There is no safe place for those who conduct, plot, or inspire attacks on American citizens and our warfighters. We will find you.”

Central Command said it launched large-scale strikes in Syria in response to the Dec. 13 attack. The operation, dubbed Hawkeye Strike, resulted in U.S. and partner forces hitting more than 100 ISIS infrastructure and weapons site targets with over 200 precision munitions.

Additionally, U.S. and partner forces have captured more than 300 ISIS operatives and killed over 20 across Syria during the past year, removing terrorists who posed a direct threat to the United States and regional security, Central Command said.

According to Fox News, Tom Barrack, U.S. Special Envoy for Syria, met with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa (who was also heavily affiliated with Al-Qaeda in the past), Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani, and members of their team in Damascus on January 10 to discuss recent developments in Aleppo and the broader path forward for Syria’s so-called “historic transition.”
