Colonel Steven Warren, Operation Inherent Resolve spokesperson, spoke by video from Baghdad to brief reporters at the Pentagon on the U.S.-led military campaign against ISIS* militants in Iraq and Syria. He said the coalition’s offensive operations continue to degrade the capabilities of ISIS, citing the killings of senior leaders, the reduction of its fighters on the battlefield, and a drop in recruitment.
