The coalition forces said there were no civilian casualties. Islamic State chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed in a US special forces raid in northwestern Syria in 2019.

The White House said the operation was "successful" and confirmed that there were no injuries to coalition forces or damage to coalition aircraft.

However, neither the White House nor the coalition forces revealed in which part of Syria the raid had taken place.
