Iraqi-led strikes and raids killed at least seven ISIS operatives in Iraq, US Central Command said on Wednesday, a day after Baghdad reported the militant group's commander for Iraq had been killed in a military operation.
A Centcom statement did not identify the operatives but said the attacks were launched against multiple ISIS targets including senior leaders.
Two US military personnel were wounded in the operations and were in stable condition, Centcom said, AFP reported.
The Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR) provided technical support and intelligence that enabled the raids, it said.
Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said on Tuesday that the ISIS commander for Iraq had been killed in an operation in Iraq's Hamrin Mountains.
A US-led coalition's military mission in Iraq will end by next September and there will be a transition to bilateral security partnerships, the US and Iraq said last month.
