“On Feb. 23, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted a precision airstrike in Northwest Syria, targeting and killing Muhammed Yusuf Ziya Talay, the senior military leader of the terrorist organization Hurras al-Din (HaD), an Al-Qaeda affiliate,” the US Central Command said in a post on the social media platform X.
“The airstrike is part of CENTCOM's ongoing commitment, along with partners in the region, to disrupt and degrade efforts by terrorists to plan, organize, and conduct attacks against civilians and military personnel from the U.S., our allies, and our partners throughout the region and beyond,” the post added.

The visual of the strikes shared by the authority showed a car, moving through deserted plains, being shot precisely at the driver seat. The car was seen getting stopped after being shot at and left with dent marks.
Gen Michael Erik Kurilla, commander of US Central Command said after the strike, “As we have said in the past, we will continue to relentlessly pursue these terrorists in order to defend our homeland, and U.S., allied, and partner personnel in the region.”
The US forces, in a similar manner, announced that they killed Wasim Tahsin Bayraqdar, a senior leadership facilitator of Hurras al-Din on February 21 through a precision airstrike.
Hurras al-Din, which the US considers as Al-Qaeda’s “formal presence in Syria”, announced its dissolution in January this year, according to an AFP report.
