DND says CF-18 hit Islamic State artillery position
– macleans.ca
OTTAWA — Canada has struck another blow against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, the Department of National Defence said Tuesday as Canadians gathered in cities and towns across the country to mark Remembrance Day.
A CF-18 fighter-bomber used a laser-guided bomb to hit an artillery position Tuesday near the city of Bayji, north of Tikrit, said Johanna Quinney, a spokeswoman for Defence Minister Rob Nicholson.
The airstrikes were being conducted near Bayji, which sits roughly midway between the cities of Baghdad and Kirkuk, in support of Iraqi forces conducting localized offensives in the area, Quinney said.
U.S. and coalition jets have been pounding the area in recent weeks, destroying bunkers, vehicles and least one anti-aircraft gun in recent days.
A technical briefing on the strike has been scheduled for Thursday, but an update on DND’s website said, “The use of air power contributing to the destruction of ISIL infrastructure and equipment denies them the military means to attack (Iraqi security forces) or coalition assets…
