SOUTHWEST ASIA – Coalition aircraft struck elements of the Qayyarah Oil Refinery in Iraq just after midnight Oct. 16, 2015, as part of the coalition’s effort to disrupt Daesh, the Arabic acronym for ISIL, financing from illegally-gained oil revenue. This strike was conducted in coordination with and in support of the Government of Iraq. The Qayyarah Oil Refinery was used by Daesh to produce oil for the black market to fund their terrorist activities. This site was also used to store weapons and as a base of operations to facilitate attacks in the area.
