WASHINGTON - The US military conducted two additional air strikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) targets near the city of Arbil in northern Iraq on Friday, the Pentagon said.

The attacks, which followed the dropping of two 500-pound bombs on Islamic State positions earlier on Friday, included a drone strike on a mortar position and an attack by four F/A-18 jets on a convoy and a mortar position, a Pentagon statement said.
