Washington, October 13 (RHC)-- The United States and its so-called coalition partners have conducted more airstrikes in Syria and Iraq. According to U.S. military officials at the Pentagon, the attacks targeted ISIL terrorists and were carried out on Tuesday, a day after Washington air-dropped tons of weapons to militants fighting inside Syria.

"Coalition forces conducted an airdrop Sunday in northern Syria to resupply local counter-ISIL ground forces as they conduct operations against ISIL," U.S. Central Command spokesman Colonel Patrick Ryder said in a statement on Monday. He added that the aircraft delivery "included small arms ammunition to resupply counter ISIL ground forces so that they can continue operations against ISIL."

The airstrikes come nearly two weeks after Russia began its military campaign against terrorists fighting against the Syrian government. Russia has carried out scores of airstrikes against terrorists there, killing hundreds.
