US Bombers Hit Libya Camps

     Two US Air Force F-15 fighter bombers, based in the UK, made an attack Friday at a coastal site in Libya.  Since the fall of Moammar Qaaddaffi and his family, the country has been essentially without a government.  Rival factions have split the country in two, east and west.  Islamic fighters of the ISIS group have stepped into the seam to recruit and train jihadists who are then dispatched to units in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Sub-Saharan Africa.
     Using various intelligence gathering methods, targets were found in LIbya that included a military  style training camp said to hold one of the top leaders of ISIS.  The two sorties bombed the site, reducing much of the camp to rubble and killing 20-30 occupants of the camp.  The leader is expected to be among the dead.
     While not a US preoccupation, these types of training camps are high on military target lists provided to Air Force planners.  No statements were forthcoming from US sources other than to acknowledge the actions.
