LONDON, Safar 24, 1437, December 06, 2015, SPA -- British bombers made their second round of strikes on ISIS targets in Syria late on Friday, again hitting oil fields, British defence minister Michael Fallon said on Saturday, according to Reuters. "Last night we saw the Typhoons in action for the first time, successfully hitting an oil field, oil well heads in eastern Syria out in the Omar field," Fallon told Sky News. The Typhoon fighter bombers had only arrived at Britain's airbase in Akrotiri, Cyprus on Thursday, bolstering its strike force of Tornado warplanes. Fallon was speaking during a visit to the British airbase in Cyprus. --SPA 15:46 LOCAL TIME 12:46 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
