Boom! Fleeing ISIS cowards face justice

U.S. forces just caught scores of Islamic terrorists in the open — and they brought the pain.
U.S.-led airstrikes targeted Islamic State convoys in Iraq late Tuesday night into Wednesday, killing at least 250 ISIS fighters and destroying over hundreds of enemy vehicles, a U.S. military spokesman told Fox News.
As Iraqi ground forces were fighting ISIS militants in an area southwest of Fallujah, where there is known ISIS influence, the first convoy was spotted leaving the city, Col. Christopher Garver said.
U.S. airstrikes demolished approximately 55 vehicles in that convoy.
A second convoy was later seen east of Ramadi later on Wednesday, when the U.S. coalition and Iraqi jets attacked with more airstrikes, annihilating approximately 120 more ISIS vehicles.
The successful airstrikes were some of the most devastating since the U.S.-led coalition began operations in the country, and came just one day after the ISIS suicide bombings at Istanbul’s Airport that killed more than 40 people.
The U.S.-led coalition has been carrying out airstrikes against ISIS in Iraq and Syria since 2014 and 300 U.S. Special Forces are embedded with a Kurdish-led militia in northern Syria.
