Michael Erik Kurilla said: &#8216;Even in the midst of complex challenges within the region, CENTCOM remains steadfast to the region and the enduring defeat of ISIS.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>In October, CENTCOM said they had conducted 387 operations against the Islamic State Group in Iraq and Syria.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That figure was already much higher than what American forces did in all of 2022 to wipe out the extremist group.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, US troops and partner forces killed at least 686 suspected ISIS fighters, 220 of those in Iraq and a further 466 in Syria.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While fewer ISIS fighters have been killed this year in Iraq and Syria, U.S. troops and partner forces have captured more suspected ISIS operatives than in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>With these latest figures from CENTCOM, the total number of operatives detained is now 516 for the year, compared to 374 last year.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The US launched counterstrikes on Iranian

forces deployed in Iraq and Syria have been attacked at least 66 times.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The US Air Force used F-15E fighter jets and targeted the Iranian Revolutionary Guard training facility in North Abu Kamal, and a militia safe house in Mayadin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Iran-backed militant groups claimed responsibility for the attacks and said they were in response to US support for Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"
