2 U.S. servicemen and civilian killed by ‘ISIS gunman’ in Syria –3 other service members were injured in the attack – Pentagon | 13 Dec 025 | U.S. military and civilian personnel have been ambushed by a “lone ISIS gunman” in Syria, with three killed and three others injured in the attack, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Saturday. The gunman was “engaged and killed” during the attack, according to the U.S. military. CENTCOM did not elaborate on where exactly the incident occurred and did not reveal the identities of the victims in accordance with the Pentagon’s policies. U.S. President Donald Trump has vowed a “very serious retaliation” for the attack and pinned the blame on the terrorist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS [but still I-CIA-SIS]). According to local media reports, the attack occurred near the central Syrian town of Palmyra, where a joint patrol of the Syrian government forces and U.S. troops came under fire. At least two Syrian servicemen were injured in the attack.  [Why are U.S. troops in Syria?]
