F-18 Hornets Pound ISIL Militants in Iraq



The U.S. military says American jet fighters and drones conducted four more airstrikes Saturday on Islamic militants in Iraq, taking out armored carriers and a truck that were firing on civilians.

U.S. CENTCOM says the Islamic State militants were firing on Yazidi civilians near Sinjar. The refugees have been taking shelter in the Sinjar mountains.

Fitting that the Hornets flew of the USS GEORGE HW BUSH (CVN-77), eh?
