The United States and several Persian Gulf Arab allies launched air and missile strikes on the strongholds of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) Takfiri group in Syria on Tuesday.
"US army and partner nation forces are undertaking military action against ISIL terrorists in Syria using a mix of fighter, bomber and Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles," Pentagon Spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said in a statement on Monday night.
"Head of US Central Command General Lloyd Austin decided to launch airstrikes inside Syria under authorization granted (to) him by the commander-in-chief (President Barack Obama)," he added.
Syria had earlier warned Washington against carrying out airstrikes on the ISIL terrorists in Syria without Damascus’ consent.
