ISIL hit with 31 air strikes in one day | Al Jazeera America: "In Iraq, 15 U.S.-led air strikes hit near Al Asad, Sinjar, Mosul, Al Qaim, Baiji, Kirkuk and Tal Afar, destroying or damaging a rocket system, vehicles, tactical units and fighting positions, the statement said.
Days earlier, on December 18, another airstrike killed the ISIL-appointed governor of Mosul, an Iraqi city controlled by the fighter group. Kurdish fighters on the ground in Iraq seemed to have gained the advantage over ISIL this week, having recaptured several villages.
U.S. Central Command on Friday also released video of an air strike it had conducted within Syria on December 21. The footage shows what U.S. forces identified as "three ISIL buildings" being destroyed in an area near Aleppo, Syria.
