The U.S. military's Central Command said the two B-52s flew over the region accompanied by military aircraft from nations including Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems on Monday reported that it will supply electro-optic systems for the use of US Air Force fighter jets, a contract worth approximately NIS 200 million.
As part of its war on ISIS, the US has now adopted Israel's tactic of preventing civilian casualties by sending a "knock on the roof" warning - a small explosive meant to encourage civilians to leave the area before a real bomb is used.
In its first deployment in the Middle East since Operation Desert Storm 26 years ago, the B-52 will contribute its awesome firepower in the war to decimate ISIS.
