US Says MQ-9 Drones That Killed Isis Leader Harassed By Russian Jets, Bid to Justify Syria Mission?

A US drone strike in eastern Syria kills ISIS leader Osama al-Muhajer, while coalition forces investigate reports of a potential civilian injury. The strike involved MQ-9 drones that had faced provocation from Russian aircraft recently. Critics question the US presence in Syria, criticizing the perceived lack of a coherent policy since 2011. The current deployment includes about 900 troops focused on combating ISIS, reducing violence, and supporting regional allies while addressing the humanitarian crisis. #syria #us #dronestrike #isis #russia #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
