The British troops carried out its first military airstrikes in the war against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The Royal Air Force (RAF) jets dropped bombs that were thought to have killed several rebel fighters.

According to the Ministry of Defense, British Tornado GR4 jets shattered a grout location which was being used to attack Kurdish militia, Peshmerga's post in northwest Iraq and then struck a heavy machine-gun-mounted truck carrying combative cavalries being sent to the vanguard. Since the House of Commons elected overpoweringly to support the latest ISIS operation, the airstrikes came on the sixth set of RAF's sorties that have carried out. Shorn of using their weapons but acquiring significant information about the insurgents, the preceding flights had returned to the Akrotiri base in Cyprus.

Over hundreds of airstrikes have carried out by the US and its allies that had already demolished the massive bulk of ISIS bases and storage facilities. Since the war flights began last Saturday, targets on the ground had been hard to come by for the British RAF.

Previously, Britain's Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said that British militaries would not get flustered when dropping bombs into ISIS troops in Iraq. Qatar-based Rivet Joint spy planes have been conducting reconnaissance operations for weeks. But the airstrikes and probable deaths of extremist fighters will currently convey UK into direct war with ISIS.

In the early days of campaign, French airstrikes resulted on urging Muslims to carry out assaults in Paris by the terror group. ISIS has flaunted British hostage Alan Henning. It is dreaded that he'll be the next one to be decapitated following the murders of three other prisoners. Captured photojournalist John Cantlie has also appeared on ISIS-released videos dauntingly condemning current Western military crusade.

British Tornado jets used a Paveway IV directed bomb to strike ISIS post, tailed by a Brimstone missile on the truck. Airstrikes' precise location was not made public, but Kurdish troops had been piloting a protracted bellicose to recapture Rabia on the Iraqi border. By late afternoon they claimed to have captured the town, but were encrusting jihadists' counter-assaults.

Last week's Parliament referendum restricted the military operation to Iraq though British Prime Minister David Cameron indicated that he would cogitate spreading the mission to Syria. Defense sources emphasized that there were no plans to intensively track down fighters and cavalcades into Syria although they recognize that for weeks the border has meritoriously terminated to exist.

British Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said that he can confirm that the RAFs were in action in support of Iraqi government. He added that both Tornados have safely returned to their base and by preliminary evaluation, both airstrikes targeting ISIS were efficacious.

British troops are anticipated to be sent to train Iraqi forces. US Special Forces as well as French militaries are also gathering intelligence. Military sources said that there have been calls to put frontward inflight controllers on the ground to instigate raids by warplanes and it is improbable to transpire in the near future.

The ongoing array US-led airstrikes plus the latest British aerial assaults targeting to destroy ISIS militants have triggered direct combat with the extremists. Dreaded lethal retaliations are anticipated as the crisis continues.
