4 U.S. troops injured, ISIS leader killed during helicopter raid in Syria

Four U.S. troops were wounded and a senior Islamic State leader was killed during a Thursday night helicopter raid in northeastern Syria, the Pentagon said Friday, marking the American military’s latest counterterrorism operation in the war-torn country.

Officials said ISIS figure Hamza al-Homsi died in the raid. The details around the U.S. injuries, including to a military service dog, were not immediately clear Friday.

The U.S. regularly conducts such raids inside Syria, which is home to remnants of the once-mighty Islamic State terror network. In December, for example, a helicopter raid in eastern Syria resulted in the death of an ISIS figure named Anas, who Pentagon officials said was deeply “involved in the group’s deadly plotting and facilitation operations in eastern Syria.”
