Iraq said its air forces conducted strikes against ISIS in Syria on Thursday. A statement by Iraqi military said F-16 fighter jets destroyed a building where ISIS militants were operating. "Iraqi F-16 jets bombed this morning on Thursday a so-called command and control center containing leaders and fighters belonging to ISIS terrorist gang in the Hajin inside Syrian territory," the statement reported by Reuters said. The Iraqi air force carried out several airstrikes against ISIS in Syria since last year. A while ago, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said he would “take all necessary measures if they threaten the security of Iraq,” referring to ISIS militants who just three years ago overran a third of Iraq. Abadi declared final victory over ISIS in December but, according to Reuters, it still operates from pockets along the border with Syria and has continued to carry out ambushes, assassinations and bombings across Iraq.
