FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SOUTHWEST ASIA – Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve and

its partners continue to pursue the lasting defeat of Daesh in designated

parts of Iraq and Syria.

Operation Roundup, which began May 1 to accelerate the defeat of Daesh in

the Middle Euphrates River Valley and Iraqi-Syrian border region, has

continued to gain ground and remove terrorists from the battlefield through

offensive operations coupled with precision Coalition strike support.

Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve and its partner

forces’ operations are exerting pressure on Daesh senior leaders and

associates, as well as degrading, disrupting and dismantling Daesh

organizational structures throughout Iraq and Syria.

Operation Roundup will continue to target Daesh remnants as the Coalition

stability in the region, and to protect all our homelands from Daesh’s

terrorist threat.

This Coalition strike release contains all strikes conducted by fighter,

attack, bomber, rotary-wing, or remotely piloted aircraft, rocket propelled

artillery and ground-based tactical artillery.

A strike, as defined in the Coalition release, refers to one or more kinetic

engagements that occur in roughly the same geographic location to produce a

single, sometimes cumulative effect in that location. For example, a single

aircraft delivering a single

weapon against a lone Daesh vehicle is one strike, but so is multiple

aircraft delivering

dozens of weapons against a group of Daesh-held buildings and weapon systems

in a

compound, having the cumulative effect of making that facility harder or

impossible to use. Strike assessments are based on initial reports and may

be refined.

CJTF-OIR does not report the number or type of aircraft employed in a

strike, the number of munitions dropped in each strike, or the number of

individual munition impact points against a target. The information used to

compile the daily strike releases is based on ‘Z’ or Greenwich Mean Time.
