They were in retaliation for the attack that killed three U.S. soldiers last weekend, the U.S. military central command said. Why it matters: "Operation Hawkeye Strike" is the most wide-ranging U.S. military operation against ISIS in Syria in several years, Axios' Barak Ravid reports. President Trump said yesterday Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa supports the operation. More details.

4-Trump Says ISIS Is Defeated. Reality Says Otherwise.

Just two weeks after President Donald Trump triumphantly declared the “100 percent” defeat of ISIS’s caliphate, his national security advisor, John Bolton, admitted on television that “the ISIS threat will remain” and that this explained why a small “observer force” would now stay in Syria. Next, senior administration officials announced that 200 U.S. troops are set to stay in northeastern Syria as part of a “multinational observer force,” with another 200 to remain in al-Tanf, an encampment near the border with Iraq, to deter Iranian behavior. Then on March 17, the Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. military was “crafting plans to keep nearly 1,000 forces in Syria” in what the newspaper described as “a decisive shift away” from Trump’s order to withdraw.
