U.S. Central Command troops carried out a helicopter operation in eastern Syria, late in the evening on April 8, and captured Hudayfah al Yemeni, an “ISIS attack facilitator,” and two of his companions. No civilians were hurt or killed.
The organization’s capacity to plan and carry out actions will be hampered by the detention of al Yemeni and his associates, according to Central Command’s April 12 press release.
