Airstrikes against ISIS hit highest point of war
By: Stephen Losey, April 14, 2017
The Air Force, other military services, and coalition allies in March released the most weapons so far in the war against the Islamic State.
According to statistics posted online this week by Air Forces Central Command, the coalition released 3,878 weapons last month, continuing the trend this year of a significant increase in airstrikes. In the first three months of this year, the coalition released 10,918 weapons against ISIS, a 62 percent increase over the 6,730 weapons released in the first quarter of 2016. And each month so far this year, individually, has seen more weapons released than any single month over the first roughly 2½ years of Operation Inherent Resolve, which began August 2014.
